🔍What is a Blockchain explorer?

A block explorer is an online blockchain browser or a tool for checking a blockchain and transactions. It provides useful information like the contents of an individual block, transaction history, and balance of addresses.

In other words, a block explorer is the "google search" of a blockchain. Like how web browsers are used to browse through the internet, block explorers allow one to browse a blockchain.

Different blockchains have different blockchain explorers. some examples are:

Bitcoin Explorer: blockchain.com

Ethereum Explorer: etherscan.io

Ripple Explorer: xrpscan.com

They are easy and simple to use.
