With the continuous development of blockchain technology and its rising popularity, more and more people are beginning to understand blockchain technology. Now, if you mention blockchain, what impresses you most is the characteristics of blockchain such as non-tampering, transparent and open transactions, traceability, etc. Although everyone knows these characteristics of blockchain, but do you really think so? understood? Do you know how to trace these transparent public transactions? Many investors must not understand that these things are actually queried through the blockchain browser. Many investors want to know what is a blockchain explorer? They want to know what a blockchain explorer can be used for? Let the editor of the currency circle talk about it below.

## What is a blockchain browser?

Blockchain browser refers to a tool that provides users with the ability to browse and query all information on the blockchain. The blockchain browser has similarities and differences with the above two browsers. The same thing is that they can all be used to search for the information we want. The difference is that the search objects of X Song and X Degree are the entire Internet, while the blockchain browser is oriented to the on-chain data of the blockchain.

The so-called blockchain browser refers to a tool that provides users with the ability to browse and query all information on the blockchain. Here, users include at least: developers, currency holders, DApp users, miners, regulators, people interested in the blockchain, etc. This is often related to the stage of the blockchain. Taking the public chain as an example, in the test network stage, the users of blockchain browsers are mainly developers; when the public chain is on the main network, currency holders, DApp users, miners, etc. gradually need to use the blockchain; and when the public chain The influence of blockchain is growing, and regulatory and blockchain-curious users will also use this product.

## What can the blockchain browser be used for?

·As the world's largest all-currency blockchain data platform, Tokenview supports 100+ mainstream public chains and more than 100,000 smart contract data queries, covering almost all chain data in the current blockchain field, and transactions can be queried , address, block and other information. Let’s take Tokenview as an example to see.

·Each transaction on the chain mainly involves the transaction addresses of both parties, and these transaction data will be packaged to generate data blocks. Users can search on the Tokenview homepage by address, transaction hash or blockchain height.

·The bottom of the homepage provides 100+ blockchain browser entrances. Users can see specific data on mainstream public chains, including currency prices, 24h increases and decreases, and the latest block information (Note: The Bitcoin protocol stipulates that every transaction on the entire network A block will be generated in 10 minutes. After the miner completes the calculation task and discovers the new block, he will receive a reward of about 12.5 Bitcoins. The discovery of the new block is also called a burst block.), the latest block generation time, total transaction amount and other information .

·Each public chain supported by Tokenview has its own specific browser. For example, the Bitcoin blockchain browser can only query the relevant block information of Bitcoin, and the Ethereum blockchain browser can only query the relevant areas of Ethereum. block information. Taking BTC as an example, after clicking on a main chain, you can see more detailed information, including the computing power of miners in the entire network, the number of transactions on the 24h chain, mining difficulty, the number of currency holding addresses, the number of daily transactions, etc. .

·If you want to query more information, you can click on the [Chart Indicators] module on the homepage, enter the name of the chain, and you can view all the data at a glance.

To sum up, this is the answer of the editor of the currency circle to the two questions of what is a blockchain browser and what can a blockchain browser be used for. The blockchain browser can be said to be a search tool. By entering a certain wallet address or a certain transaction ID, we can query the balance of this wallet and the details of any transaction. We can even enter the block height. Block hashes, etc. to search all contents of a specific block. If you can master the use of blockchain browsers, it will be very helpful for digital currency investment, and it can help us understand some hidden information.
