Hi,

PostgreSQL: Documentation: 13: DO
Is it possible to run a DO block for multiple transactions ?
I am not sure if i'll be able explain it more verbally, but

-- the entire DO block like a function block is a single tx
postgres=# do $$
declare x bigint;
begin
for i in 1..10 loop
select txid_current()::bigint into x;
raise notice '%', x;
end loop;
end
$$;

 -- is it possible for a DO block to execute multiple txs
postgres=# create or replace procedure pp() as $$ 
declare x bigint;
begin
for i in 1..10 loop
select txid_current()::bigint into x;
commit;
raise notice '%', x;
end loop;
end; $$ language plpgsql;
CREATE PROCEDURE
postgres=# call pp();

CALL

one of the use case would be batch inserts, but from within a single psql session

create table t(id int primary key);
postgres=# truncate table t;
TRUNCATE TABLE
postgres=# do $$
declare valuelist int[] := ARRAY[1,2,3,4,5,1]; -- purposely inserting duplicate that would rollback everything
declare i int;
begin
for i in select k from unnest(valuelist) p(k) loop
insert into t values(i);
raise notice 'trying to insert %', i;
end loop;
end; $$;
NOTICE:  trying to insert 1
NOTICE:  trying to insert 2
NOTICE:  trying to insert 3
NOTICE:  trying to insert 4
NOTICE:  trying to insert 5
ERROR:  duplicate key value violates unique constraint "t_pkey"
DETAIL:  Key (id)=(1) already exists.

--- so everything got rolled back, as duplicate key, table t empty

postgres=# create or replace procedure proc_ins() as $$
declare valuelist int[] := ARRAY[1,2,3,4,5,1];
declare i int;
begin
for i in select k from unnest(valuelist) p(k) loop
insert into t values(i);
raise notice 'trying to insert %', i;
commit; -- explict commit, every insert in a new tx.
end loop;
end; $$ language plpgsql;
CREATE PROCEDURE

postgres=# call proc_ins();
NOTICE:  trying to insert 1
NOTICE:  trying to insert 2
NOTICE:  trying to insert 3

postgres=# table t;
 id

  2

  4
  5
(5 rows)


Ok, there might be better ways to do this using insert on conflict, handling exceptions etc, but I hope you got my point.

I would go on and say DO block to  waste transactions to simulate wraparound with minimum concurrent connections, but that would divert the discussion, 
hence just keeping it simple.
you can point me to docs, if i am missing the obvious reference for what a DO serves  or what it was created for.
