A block chain browser such as Bitcoin Block Explorer [1], Biteasy Blockexplorer [2], BTCplex [3] or Blockr.io Block Explorer [4] 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 [5]
- transactions in a given block [6]
- links to the previous and next transaction involving each input and output [7]
- a list of all transactions involving a given address [8]
- current and historical address balances
- a way to search for blocks, transactions, and addresses
