A block chain browser such as Bitcoin Block Explorer [1] is a program or web site that lets users search and navigate a block chain. Uses include:
- checking address balances
- tracking coin transfer histories
- watching for transaction acceptance
- monitoring the network hash rate and other statistics
Block chain browsers typically offer:
- a list of a chain's recent blocks [2]
- transactions in a given block [3]
- links to the previous and next transaction involving each input and output [4]
- a list of all transactions involving a given address [5]
- current and historical address balances
- a way to search for blocks, transactions, and addresses
