Mythril builds its own contract database using RPC sync. Unfortunately, this process is slow - however, you don't need to sync the whole blockchain right away. If you abort the syncing process with `ctrl+c`, it will auto-resume the next time you run the `--init-db` command. Mythril builds its own contract database using RPC sync.

Also, PyEthApp only supports Python 2.7, which causes issues with other important packages. - Using PyEthereum: I encountered issues syncing PyEthereum with Homestead.

- Accessing the Go-Ethereum LevelDB: This would be a great option. However, PyEthereum database code seems unable to deal with Go-Ethereum's LevelDB. It would take quite a bit of effort to figure this out. - Accessing the Go-Ethereum LevelDB: This would be a great option.
