The BlockDAG Explorer is a comprehensive blockchain tracking tool that provides users with real-time insights into the BlockDAG network's transactions, blocks, contracts, tokens, and nodes. It is designed to help users search, monitor, and interact with the network efficiently, offering a structured dashboard with key blockchain metrics and functionalities.

Search Bar

Located at the top of the page, this allows users to search for “Addresses”, “Transaction Hashes”, or “Block Numbers” within the EVM-based BlockDAG blockchain. Users simply input the relevant data and click the "Search" button or press enter to retrieve detailed information.

Nav Bar (Drop-down): Allows users to switch between EVM and UTXO network.

Dashboard Summary

This section provides a quick overview of essential blockchain statistics:

• BlockDAG Price Displays the current price of BDAG in USDT.

• Total Blocks This shows the total number of blocks that have been created on the BlockDAG network (for eg: 3,282,823 blocks).

• Last Safe Block Displays the number of the latest block that has been confirmed as "safe" or finalized (eg: Block #7284).

• Total Transactions The total value of transactions processed on the network is currently at ‘91522’.

• BlockDAG Transaction History Graph A visual graph that shows transaction activity over time, allowing users to monitor network activity trends.

Latest Blocks

Displays the most recent blocks created on the network. Each block entry provides the following details:

• Block Number: Represents the height of the block in the chain, showing the sequence of block creation. (e.g., #35791).

• Hash: A unique identifier for the block, generated based on the block's contents.

• Age: The timestamp of when the block was added to the network. (e.g., "9 sec. ago").

• Txn Count: The number of transactions included in the block, showing how many transactions were confirmed in this block.

• Gas Used: The total amount of computational effort spent executing transactions within the block.

• Gas Limit: The maximum amount of gas that can be used in the block, set by the network to regulate transaction throughput.

• Base Fee : The minimum fee per gas unit that must be paid for a transaction to be included in the block.

Latest Transactions

The Latest Transactions section on the home screen displays recent transactions executed on the BlockDAG network.

• Transaction Hash: A unique identifier for the transaction, generated using cryptographic hashing.

• Block No.: The block where this transaction was confirmed, indicating its placement in the BlockDAG structure.

• Events: Shows the type of action taken in the transaction, such as:

  • Transfer: Standard token transfer.

  • Mint: Token generation (typically ERC-20 or ERC-721/ERC-1155 NFT minting).

• Age: Time elapsed since the transaction was processed.

• From: The sender’s wallet address

• To: The recipient’s wallet address or contract address if interacting with a smart contract.

• Value: The amount of BDAG (BlockDAG’s native token) transferred.

• Transaction Fee: The gas fee paid in BDAG for processing the transaction.

Navigation Sidebar

The menu on the left provides easy access to various sections of the BlockDAG Explorer:

• Home: The dashboard, showing network stats.

• Blocks: displays the list of mined blocks and details like block height, timestamp, and miner.

• Transactions: displays the list of recent transactions, including sender, receiver, gas fees, and status.

• Contract Listing: Possibly a repository of deployed smart contracts.

• Verification: Allows user to verify deployed smart contracts by ensuring source code matches the deployed bytecode.

• Token: Might display ERC-20 and ERC-721 (NFT) tokens

• Node Visualizer: A unique feature for visualizing network nodes and connections.

• Faucet: Usually found in testnets, this might provide free tokens for development and testing, similar to other faucets.

Add BDAG Network Button: This button allows users to easily integrate the BlockDAG network into their wallet or blockchain tools for direct interaction with BDAG tokens.

Price Display: A small widget in the sidebar shows the current price of BDAG, along with a percentage change indicator.

Pagination: At the bottom of the transactions section, users can navigate through multiple pages of data using pagination controls, allowing them to view blocks on the blockchain. Also, note that we only show latest 1,00,000 blocks and transactions.

Footer: The footer includes a disclaimer about the risks of cryptocurrency investments, reminding users of the speculative and volatile nature of the market.

Users can also access social media links (Telegram, Twitter, Facebook, etc.) and other company information at the bottom.
