We've looked at it and have published two papers including data on Ahaetulla venom. Unlike most other colubrine venoms, it is only weakly neurotoxic, the dominant components being large enzymes. No idea as to blood effects. It certainly is of only trivial medical concern, with bites typically producing only a bit of swelling and some aching at most and usually nothing at all.
You can download the papers from:
