List of useful Bitcoin block explorers

[GazetaBitcoin]

• Blockexplorer.com has finally added support for Bitcoin ^{[I'm not sure when they did it, but perhaps it's time to move it back to the main list]}.
• According to "IsItDownRightNow", Bitcoinexplorer.org has been down for more than a week:

We have in main list the website Blockexplorer.one -- is this the one you refer to by "Blockexplorer.com"? If yes, it's already there
As for Bitcoinexplorer.org, let's keep an eye on him...

I wonder if it's time to remove the subjective rating column and just list block explorers in alphabetical order.

Ummm... about changing the structure of the topic, I'd rather ask 1miau first... As you guys know, this topic belonged to him at origins... I consider myself only the administrator of it, not the true owner So I wouldn't want to upset him by making a change of the main structure of the topic without consulting him first...

Also, another thing to take into consideration is the amount of work for doing that; also the amount of work needed by translators as well, which may not be very familiar with working with tables -- in this case, rearranging them... so it may make a mess, sigh... Also, imagine that for some translators we are waiting even weeks or months, for making only some minor changes... so for such big change, we may wait forever... I am afraid of making such change, even in the case that 1miau would agree...

I should have been clearer ^{[my bad]}... They're two different explorers. The one with the .com domain extension "had to be removed" from the main list in 2022.

I am afraid of making such change, even in the case that 1miau would agree...

I wouldn't mind doing the changes ^{[if 1miau agrees]} and copying them to a text storage site ^{[e.g., Pastebin]}, so translators can easily copy & paste them to their threads.

That would be pretty awesome if things can be made that way. Because for me, tables are just pure nightmares . I have been using the forum for a couple of years now but when it comes to tables I'm still a newbie. I just can't do it or figure out the layout/process! One small change and the entire things messed up! So every time, I made changes, I made sure to backup the original post!

I don't know why it wasn't removed... perhaps 1miau forgot... But with this occasion, looking at your linked post, I noticed that also TokenView should have been removed at same moment. So both must be removed.

SFR10, this is very kind of you! Thank you in advance for all this work! I don't even want to think about the amount of time needed for doing this

Oh well, let's do like this. I PMed 1miau and I explained him the proposal. So let's wait for his input. In case he agrees, then let's do at same moment these needed 3 changes -- eliminate those 2 website plus adding the last one you proposed.

Sounds good?

I used to hate them, but now, things have changed

1miau removed it after I reported it ^{[it's in the "Removed Blockexplorers" list]} With regard to the Tokenview, it appears 1miau forgot to update its listing with their new domain extension ^{[credit goes to @ajiz138 for noticing the changes]}.

Oh well, let's do like this. I PMed 1miau and I explained him the proposal. So let's wait for his input.[...] Sounds good?

It sounds great

[GazetaBitcoin]

1miau removed it after I reported it ^{[it's in the "Removed Blockexplorers" list]}

I am sorry, I got totally confused, sigh... So yes, it is removed... So, in this case, it should be re-added, right?

With regard to the Tokenview, it appears 1miau forgot to update its listing with their new domain extension ^{[credit goes to @ajiz138 for noticing the changes]}.

Okay, let's remember this change for being done then, after 1miau answers us.

I should be the one to apologize for not explaining it well... Yes, that's correct

I'm taking advantage of this topic to ask:
Does anyone know of good software for building a block explorer? Or is it not recommended to reuse what's available?

[LoyceV]

Does anyone know of good software for building a block explorer? Or is it not recommended to reuse what's available?

I haven't tried it myself, but I've seen people use mempool.space's block explorer for this.

Well, the mempool is open source, and could be used on your own servers.

I was wondering if there were any others who did this. But maybe this is the best.

[GazetaBitcoin]

Okay, let's remember this change for being done then, after 1miau answers us.

Hey SFR10, 1miau wasn't online for a while... so we are still waiting for his input.

In any case, meanwhile I added Proton to OP and to the old table format as well.

Regarding TokenView, I see it's listed with .io domain in OP, so it's working No change needed here (please correct me if I'm wrong).

Finally, regarding Blockexplorer.com, can you suggest a rating, please? I found one suggested by 1miau a long while back, but I think that information is not accurate anymore... If you can suggest a new rating, then I will also move it from "Removed" section to main table.

(Also, as a side note, I am still waiting for one last translator to make the changed needed after last update of OP )

[SFR10]

Regarding TokenView, I see it's listed with .io domain in OP, so it's working No change needed here (please correct me if I'm wrong).

That's weird... I was probably looking at an old table somewhere when I made that comment ^{[no change is needed for TokenView (sorry)]}.
^{- Thank you for the other changes}

Finally, regarding Blockexplorer.com, can you suggest a rating, please? I found one suggested by 1miau a long while back, but I think that information is not accurate anymore... If you can suggest a new rating, then I will also move it from "Removed" section to main table.

Based on your response to 1miau's rating ^{[at that time]}, it appears he/she confused it with WalletExplorer, so here's my subjective rating:

Name (link)	Bech32 / Bech32m (P2TR) supported?	SegWit (P2SH) identifiable?**	Usefulness (subjective rating) ***	Works without JS?	Rated by
________________________	________________________________	_________________________	_________________________________	____________________	________________
Blockexplorer.com	Yes (10/2025) / Partially (10/2025)	Yes (10/2025)	2 / 10 Points	No	SFR10

[GazetaBitcoin]

That's weird... I was probably looking at an old table somewhere when I made that comment ^{[no change is needed for TokenView (sorry)]}.

This IS strange indeed, because I also remembered I saw that link not functioning, just don't remember where... I checked also the old tables and the links are functional there too

^{- Thank you for the other changes}

And I thank you for your constant input!

so here's my subjective rating

Thank you, SFR! I made now both changes inside OP; I made them also in the old table; I made them also in the Romanian version of the thread; and I also PMed all translators... Now let's wait the translators to apply the changes and also 1miau to respond...

[GazetaBitcoin]

Dear all, in case you missed this, then I am very sorry for bringing the bad news (deep sigh)...

Considering 1miau's last statement, it's highly unlikely that he will ever answer my PM regarding that proposal...

SFR10, do you still wish to make those drafts for all translators...? I think we can proceed with the proposal, since there was no objection and, also, 1miau left forever...

Wait what! NOOOO!

He was a really nice guy! I just saw this news, this really saddens me!

I hope wherever he goes he finds peace!

[SFR10]

Dear all, in case you missed this, then I am very sorry for bringing the bad news (deep sigh)...

I'm quite shocked by this bad news and I hope it doesn't involve any legal or health issues.
^{@1miau: I salute you for all of your contributions on this forum and wish you all the best.}

SFR10, do you still wish to make those drafts for all translators...? I think we can proceed with the proposal, since there was no objection and, also, 1miau left forever...

Yes, I still wish to provide those drafts for translators ^{[will do it in a day or two]}, but as a final confirmation, can I remove the subjective rating column or should I keep it for now?

[GazetaBitcoin]

I'm quite shocked by this bad news and I hope it doesn't involve any legal or health issues.

I hope that too... I PMed him to ask what happened, but I doubt he will ever answer...

^{@1miau: I salute you for all of your contributions on this forum and wish you all the best.}

I do the same... and I am warmly shaking his paw...

Well, now I am confused
Wasn't the change about eliminating that column...? Or... were you referring to another change...?
(Also, as a side note, I am still waiting for 3 more translators to apply the last 2 updates -- about Proton and Blockexplorer.com...)

[LoyceV]

I hope that too... I PMed him to ask what happened, but I doubt he will ever answer...

My take: of course I'm curious why he suddenly left the forum, but if he didn't want to post it, I'm not going to ask.  It's just sad to see another long-term member leave this place, and I can only hope it's not for a terrible reason.

Sorry for confusing you... Due to the very last sentence in "this post" of yours, I thought I was supposed to provide drafts to our translators for each of the future changes as well ^{[my bad]}

Drafts for translators

Dear SFR10, I am speechless What you did is truly amazing! Wow!

I will start updating OP and Ro version.

I am extremely sowwy for the late reply, but I was very sick recently. I mean I was that sick that in weekend I had an interval of 26h in which I slept almost nonstop, without eating, without doing anything else... I crashed in bed Saturday at 11pm and when I woke up it was Monday 12pm Oo Anyway... I felt sick before this as well, but in the weekend I crashed, lol...

Oh well, that being said, I will PM the translators, hoping we will see the changes soon
Many, many thanks for this incredible effort...

Later edit: OP is updated. Also is the Romanian version. At same time, I propose to keep the old table only for reference, without applying other updates... it's too much work (and useless)...
Second edit: all translators have been PMed
