Title: Checking Firstbits
Post by: Steeley on June 06, 2021, 11:03:45 PM
What are you using these days to look up public addresses from first bits?

I have a few coins with only the firstbits and I cannot seem to figure out where go to get the full address on many of them. Seems like a lot of the older sites that helped in the past are down. For example, Cryptovest tracker is down. blockr.io. The explorer I use the most doesn't seem to recognize first bits.

What works best for you?

https://smartbit.com.au works as well I believe.

Edit - I think walletexplorer is case-insensitive, but I may be wrong, it's been a while. :P

smartbit works really well, it suggests all the addresses that start with those characters as you type plus, its Australian so Im biased towards it.

per owlcatz's edit, wallet explorer is indeed case INsensitive (just tested it) so you dont need to get the caps right to find the right address. You do need to get the case right to find the address on smartbit.
