Actually there are some explorers that aggregate many different blockchains, but they are usually similar. One example is graphene DPoS blockchains.

As far as I know, there is no such platform. However, I am sure that a number of platforms will work in this regard. It will be resolved in the future. For example I guess Blockchain may start this soon. They've already added ETH and XLM their platform. It is obvius that they will do that possible.

Yeah your idea is great and I appreciate it. Every block chain has its own explorer. All ether based token have etherscan. Same like that neo eos Rex every one has their own explorer for them and the ALTs based on them. I think developers already think about that. But main problem about that is the explorer must have to link with the blockchain. So it is hard at this moment to link between a of the explorer. Maybe in future we will see something like that. I know it will be great. But you have to think about that everything has a limitation in one point and its just the start we will grew up with times.

I think that it will not exist because those hundreds of Altcoins that exist now - will disappear in a few years

A nice approach! Let’s find that someone Wink we can’t wait until every coin will have an explorer and imagine the quantity of it in that case, a nightmare!  Your suggestion sounds like a good solution here.

Having a blockfoloo for each explorer can be too difficult and weird
All you have to do is use the random universal blockfoloo and get your Details spot on

That’s all that works

Each coin has its own explorer, however, there is no explorer can show all altcoin info together.

Big coin like btc and eth has nice explorer like btc.com and etherscan.

Blockchair also integrate several top coins, but still not enough.

Someone should develop a one-stop altcoin explorer, may be a multilingual one.

All this coins are built on separate blockchain so creating a blockchain to where you can check all transaction will be so tedious because first of all, you will have to run the full node of all the altcoins blockchain, this will not only cost a lot of money but will take a lot of time. Running just the full node of EOS will need up to 7 GB of ram memory. So, I don't think it's realistic.

Some sort of that already exists.
It has many coins but not all of them.

altcoins come and go, so it's good to have explorer for just well established coins, and I think popular ones already supports tc/ltc/eth/bch. I am good with that.

Imagine it looking like coinmarketcap but for explorer. It's convenient but not needed

it is actually needed but it is nothing like coinmarketcap.
it is needed because people don't want to run these coins full nodes and there aren't any light wallets either. so block explorers can offer a lot to them.
and it is nothing like cmc because cmc only keeps a tiny database of prices and their daily history while a block explorer has to hold the whole blockchain and also index it which would take even bigger size.


Yes! That's definitely what I want to say.

I think those data should be quite useful to ppl like miners, traders and related guys in the future, especially with the accumulated data as the time goes on...

In fact, I have one explorer already match towards this goal-tokenview.com

That's impossible dude. An explorer must linked to the its blockchain, the only possible thing to create an explorer that can switch from the one blockchain to another. But just try to remind you even the cross blockchain platform still not yet developed.


Yes, cross chain may be a solution to fix that issues

It’s extremely difficult to build such a function, so it requires more thought, thoroughness in making the coding is so arranged or structured.

There is also an application I haven't tried and therefore I don't know about.
The following Chrome extension claims that it can scan all crypto-money blocks.

NOTE: I want to say it again. I've never tried it before and I don't know that it provides reliable data.
One e.g, many altcoins have different algorithms are also different source nodes network. Google plugin is very possible to make something like this, but it's certainly still a lot of bad opinion about bitcoin but not matter own blockchain

Imagine it looking like coinmarketcap but for explorer. It's convenient but not needed because as what maximus said about altcoins most of them are irrelevant you don't know if those newly launched alts would still have future transactions or not.   Websites that have multiple explorers like blockchain(dot)com started with bitcoin then added popular altcoins afterwards. This is only possible if you have the money because no one would do this for free.

it is impossible to do as asriloni said above but also because it means keeping a gigantic database of each coin that you can call and see your balance. not to mention that altcoins die often so if you decide to keep a long list of them then you have to check every day to see which one is dead to remove that and see what new shitcoin was created to add that!

from my bookmarks i have chainz.cryptoid.info which had quite a lot of altcoins. check it out.

I've read about Google's work on this. I think there will be a search method for all blockchains on Google within a short time.

A single website with explorer that can show all altcoins? Hardly possible. For example, that site would need to keep and update all blockchains for all altcoins. In theory it is possible, but in practice, too much data to store and update. Just ETH blockchain size is well over 1TB. Besides, altcoins come and go, almost every day. Who would be willing to maintain such a website, to delete the obsolete coins and add the new ones?
