I started using blockchain.info long time ago and later switched to blockr.io.
But now, I have switched back to blockchain.info after discovering the email notification feature. Smiley

When you check an address balance or a transaction status online, which block explorer do you use ? If you run a service depending on a third party API, which block explorer's API you rely upon ?

Update: I'm listing out the outcome of this thread here...

1. https://blockchain.info/

2. https://blockr.io/

3. https://blockexplorer.com/

4. https://www.biteasy.com/

5. https://chain.so/btc

6. https://helloblock.io/

7. http://bitcoinchain.com/block_explorer

8. https://bkchain.org/btc

9. http://bitinfocharts.com/bitcoin/

10. http://www.blocktrail.com



blockchain.info has always been easier for me to use. the other ones honestly do not do that good of a job keeping things simple or clear.

I always used blockchain.info because my wallet is there
It looks good and and as long as I use I have not found the problem
but I see here, many also use blockr.io, okay I'll try it

Blockchain.info way to go!!. It is even listed on Wikihow page Roll Eyes

Probably because they are the oldest one after theymos's BlockExplorer.com

I switched to blockr.io a few months ago, after having some problems with blockchain.info, and I am very happy with the change. Smiley


U might like to give a shot to...

1. www.BlockTrail.com

2. www.BitEasy.com

Both are very neatly designed and informative Smiley

Blockchain.info is my pick. I didn't actually know there were other good explorers out there for Bitcoin, but after reading this, some of the others looks well designed.

It seems that there is a new one on the block. It is www.BlockTrail.com. I was just reading about it on CoinDesk...

http://www.coindesk.com/russian-tech-magnates-first-bitcoin-project-launches-beta/

...seems promising.

I use both blockchain.info and blockr.io.
They both provide the hex raw transaction and allow me to push my raw transaction.

blockchain.info does go down some times but not very often its pretty reliable and the uptime must be near 99%.

Yes, also it is possibly the best linked node there is. There are times when it has >900 connections!
Blockchiain.info is likely the most reliable "supernode" out there and the most reliable block explorers. It is very user friendly, however you can change settings to give you more "advanced" information if you need it. It also has a lot of useful information that can be useful to both the casual user and the "dev"

Quiet true. Blockchain.info is the reason for which we got to be aware of the 51% reach of GHash.io. Its really the Bitcoin Google.

Blockchain.info is the default, but when it goes down, I always use blockr.io as backup!
