[2016-04-11] This website lets you watch Bitcoin transactions in real-time

Have you ever wanted to see Bitcoin transactions visualised in real time?

All over the world the cryptocurrency is being used to make purchases and transactions and often times it is easy to forget just how ubiquitous it has become.

Well, wonder no longer! The team over at Bitbonkers have created a visualisation of live bitcoin transactions in the blockchain.

The transactions are shown as coloured balls, while cubes indicate the blocks from the blockchain through which the transactions are being made.

This is a very interesting visualization. The large transaction size of certain transactions is captured by the size of the balls.
This can be used as a visual aid in the block size debate as well.

yups
it's very fun for m, we can see each block created with ball, if the ball is small the transaction is small too.

What would made it even more interesting, is if you could click on a ball and then that transaction linked to that ball will open in a new separate window. Now you have to use

other sites to look at these transactions. I have watched it for a while and noticed some huge drops occurring that might not be directly linked to real time transactions. A link

to these transactions will prove the validity of this demonstration.

It would indeed be a cool option to click on a ball and to see all the transaction information related to it. But I am sure it will be implemented at some time. That would make this website complete.
