Stack Exchange — crypto.stackexchange.com
The content of crypto.stackexchange.com (https://crypto.stackexchange.com/), a Stack Exchange question-and-answer site, as published in the Stack Exchange Data Dump of April 2024 on the Internet Archive. The posts table holds 208,613 rows: 68,495 posts (30,327 questions, 37,048 answers, 547 tag wiki excerpts, 547 tag wikis, 22 posts of type 6 and 4 posts of type 7) and 140,118 comments, written between 12 February 2011 and 31 March 2024. Beside it are 88,005 user accounts, 320,194 votes, 131,097 badges awarded, 529 tags, 254,034 post revisions and 13,166 links between posts. Every answer keeps the question it answers and every comment the post it was written on, so the threads can be rebuilt. The Internet Archive item describes the dump as anonymised; the votes table names the voter in only 481 rows.
