Honestly, I don't like the new UI of the explorer.

I'd also prefer the previous version more than the revamped version and based on the following "tweet", I think they might reintroduce their legacy version at some point ^{[don't quote me on that]}.

It's worth noting that Blockstream has also an "Onion V3" link ^{[not sure when it was added]}.
^{- You might want to replace their Onion V2 link with that one instead.}

The explorer was changed for a while, weeks ago.

Honestly, I don't like the new UI of the explorer. They don't show all length of addresses in one transaction (your screenshot shows it as well). It is inconvenient if you want to find any address in one txhash.

I would prefer the previous UI than the newest one. It looks to be too colorful and inconvenience.

The famous block explorer Blockchair.com has changed its design recently and is looking like that now:

Transactions:

Transactions are still displayed in a short overview but can be extended via drop-down menu.

But for SegWit addresses, it had been better previously. Previously a simple yes / no button in the drop-down menu was displayed but now, it has been replaced and SegWit-Addresses show up as “SegWit” by a blue button. For addresses, which aren’t SegWit, no button is displayed. If someone doesn’t know about that feature and how it looks like, it can cause confusion for Non-SegWit addresses where people will search but can’t find it because “no SegWit” isn’t displayed anymore.

Non-SegWit addresses don’t have any tag…

Comparison:

SegWit: https://blockchair.com/bitcoin/transaction/db6d2b441a5964cd4c3ccdb7316738b020def1fdf2726201f07cc74016844e50
No SegWit: https://blockchair.com/bitcoin/transaction/b4262cc5ac3be3899c6d840408eb4252c150bdf82534921360aa5946ded9d62a

Previously, displaying SegWit addresses has been better in my opinion.

Addresses:

Addresses are now containing directly an address-type, which is very good but beginners might be confused a little bit. I haven’t researched it, if nested SegWit (P2WPKH-P2SH) addresses without outgoing transaction are displayed correctly.

After all, Blockchair is still my favorite block explorer.

I tried to open OXT and search an address, but it doesn't work (Address / tx isn't loading, tried for several browsers. I'll try tomorrow again) Maybe someone else also can't load it Huh

)

Uhm... it works fine on my side... Maybe it didn't work on your side due to a maintenance of the website (which was completed meanwhile)...

Later Edit: I would like to propose now https://bitcoinwhoswho.com. This one isn't mentioned in OP and it has very interesting features

Added. At first, where it didn't seem very user friendly, I was a bit disappointed but it seems to be an interesting tool. I won't call it explorer *
(I've just taken a random address posted on the site flagged as "scammer address"):

Scam alerts are added (I don't know how such reports are determined)

Yep, this tool is awesome due to this feature of flagging scams. Regarding how to create a flag, on the upper side of the website there is a button named "Report Scam". If you click on it, a new page is displayed, where you can insert the BTC address involved in a scam, but not just that. And here things become very interesting. Excepting scams, you can also report "Bitcoin Abuse, Scams, Blackmail and Extortion Emails". Besides, the reporting page also offers a link for making a report directly to FBI

*But we can't view transactions, only Bitcoin addresses can be viewed.

Yes, I observed that now... But you can see though all transactions performed by any address.

Excepting all these, I'd also like to mention that I updated the Romanian translation of the topic with three new websites added by you in OP: mempool and CoinCap - sugested by SFR10; and BitcoinWho'sWho - suggested by me.

Just finished testing it and had no issue when it comes to looking for an address with different formats ^{[BASE58 (P2PKH), BASE58 (P2SH), and BECH32 (P2WPKH)]} but got inconsistent results while using it for transactions ^{[sometimes it loads, sometimes it doesn't]} and lastly, I always get the following error while searching for a block:

You missed it. OXT is in OP for months as the last update time is 27 October 2020.

Yes, you are right. I looked for it before posting it, but I didn't see it. And now, after seeing your post I looked again and again I did not see it, until I read the post for a second time. Most likely because it's not in the main list from the OP... My bad. Thanks for pointing this out, hd49728!

This one isn't mentioned in OP and it has very interesting features: you can see the last IPs of the transactions, verify if the address was tagged in scam activities, you can see if it was mentioned on websites (and on which websites), you can check "bitcoin ownership and wallet balance by name, bitcoin address, email address, url or keyword" (I didn't verify all these yet) and you can also see if repeated inputs came from an address or repeated outputs were sent to an address.

You made me very surprised. Did you forget to use Search?

I usually use Search when I need to find something in a topic, thread. It is a waste of time to scan and find it by your eyes and you will sometimes miss it (as you did).

You have two ways to search:
- Ctrl + F, Type OXT, enter, your work is finished.
- The Search box (at top right corner): type OXT, enter, your work is finished.

Search box help you to search in a thread you are in. You are in 1miau topic, and when you search with OXT in the search box, search engine will only work and find OXT in this topic.

OXT will be highlighted.

I also added the three websites to the Romanian translated topic

Just a heads-up, 1miau: please take a look at these 3 websites, I think there is needed a small change in the BBCode as they appear with some ")" which are not preceded by "(". I made an adjustment in the formatting when I posted them in the translated topic. Please let me know if this is how you meant to have them displayed in your OP. I hope this helps.

Well spotted, should be better now. Wink

I've also changed the layout a little bit since it should be clear that all links have a counterpart in the list above.

Roger that! When you will update the topic I'll make sure that also the Romanian translated topic is updated as well.

Besides, on the translated topic 20kevin20 mentioned also a .onion version of mempool.space explorer:

Hey there 1miau!

I'd like to ask you a question about the poll from OP. Based on a post of NeuroticFish in the translated version of your topic, I observed that the poll contains just 12 block explorers, while in the topic are listed 22. NeuroticFish said he was interested in voting an explorer, but it wasn't listed in the poll

Is there a reason why you placed in the poll just 12 explorers instead of all of them...?

It's not updated currently, I'll try to update it next weekend when I have some more time.

Quote from: OcTradism on October 13, 2020, 10:52:19 PM

Can you check and exclude 3 block explorers from the list, @1miau?

From my side, they are not operated well today. Please check. Or it is just me get those errors?

https://blockexplorer.com/ (only be able to visit main page, nothing more)

Those 12 were listed/rated by 1miau ^{[initial list]} while the rest, were added later on.

Oh I see... Well, in case you'll decide to extend the poll to the other sites as well, I'll also updated the Romanian translated topic. I think it would be a good move to expand the poll, as some users may like more some the other explorers (those which were added later). What do you think?
