~/.config/transmission/blocklist.bin
That could???? be OK for Linux
but really should look more like:

~/.config/transmission/blocklists/blocklist.bin
or
~/.config/transmission-daemon/blocklists/blocklist.bin



but it's not text
THAT won't be
as per x190:
Just create a text file using the following format and put it in your blocklists directory and restart Transmission.

Name:178.xxx.157.114-178.xxx.157.114
"""whatever_you_want""".txt, copy it to your blocklists directory, kill and restart transmission
then it will configured and renamed by Transmission to """whatever_you_want""".bin (NOT a text file)
