/**
 * Downloads the block given a block hash from the remote or localhost node and prints it out.
 * When downloading from localhost, run bitcoind locally: bitcoind -testnet -daemon.
 * After bitcoind is up and running, use command: org.bitcoinj.examples.FetchBlock --localhost <blockHash> 
 * Otherwise, use command: org.bitcoinj.examples.FetchBlock <blockHash>, this command will download blocks from a peer generated by DNS seeds.
