Block explorer now online

Post by **Steve Sokolowski** » Sat May 30, 2015 7:25 pm

I'm pleased to announce that our new block explorer is online. It can be accessed by clicking "explorer" at the top of the site.

The block explorer allows anyone to browse the blockchains of any coin that we offer for mining or payouts, which is around 200 currently. You can view transactions, wallet balances, and blocks. Historical pricing data is also available that reveals what each block was worth at the time of mining. Prices are listed for all the markets we trade, in both dollars and other cryptocurrencies.

As always, we are limited by CPU power - this time in how quickly we can get all blockchains indexed. We have the multithreaded indexer we wrote set at 8 daemons. Daemons that have no blocks indexed yet aren't listed in the explorer, and daemons that only have some blocks indexed allow users to browse the blocks that are indexed. You should be able to watch the number of coins and blocks increase by the minute by clicking "next" on what used to be the highest block of a coin.

We hope this block explorer will be helpful to the community and will allow developers of all coins to continue moving forward with cryptocurrency development. Please submit suggestions and bugs by replying to this post.
