Chain
The Chain method group contains methods for interacting with the blockchain, but that do not require any form of state computation.

ChainExport returns a stream of bytes with CAR dump of chain data. The exported chain data includes the header chain from the given tipset back to genesis, the entire genesis state, and the most recent ’nroots' state trees. If oldmsgskip is set, messages from before the requested roots are also not included.

ChainGetBlockMessages returns messages stored in the specified block.
Note: If there are multiple blocks in a tipset, it’s likely that some messages will be duplicated. It’s also possible for blocks in a tipset to have different messages from the same sender at the same nonce. When that happens, only the first message (in a block with lowest ticket) will be considered for execution
NOTE: THIS METHOD SHOULD ONLY BE USED FOR GETTING MESSAGES IN A SPECIFIC BLOCK
DO NOT USE THIS METHOD TO GET MESSAGES INCLUDED IN A TIPSET Use ChainGetParentMessages, which will perform correct message deduplication
