Block explorer

The community-hosted block explorer for Exfer is at:

https://explorer.exfer.dev

Use it to:

  • Look up a transaction by its tx_id and see confirmation status.
  • Browse blocks by height or hash.
  • Inspect an address — balance and transaction history.
  • Watch the chain tip live.

When to use the explorer

  • You sent a transaction and want to confirm it landed in a block.
  • Someone gave you an address and you want to check its balance or recent activity.
  • You're debugging an integration and want a sanity check against an independent view of the chain.

Pairing the explorer with your own integration

For machine-readable access you still want the JSON-RPC API — the explorer is human-facing. Common pattern:

  1. Build against your own node's RPC (or a community node) for programmatic checks.
  2. Surface explorer links in your UI so end users can click through to see a transaction or address externally.

URL conventions on the explorer are typically:

  • https://explorer.exfer.dev/tx/<tx_id>
  • https://explorer.exfer.dev/block/<height> or /<block_hash>
  • https://explorer.exfer.dev/address/<address>

(Exact URL shape lives in the explorer's UI — check by clicking around. The site is community-maintained and may evolve.)
