Which Block Explorer do you use ?

[onlinedragon]

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 ?

There are really lots of these block explorer with great design but i like the oldest one blockchain.info, simply clear for eyes.

Same here it's good and simple not needed to use another one.

The thing that make Blockchain.info the most used block explorer are because of their name is so familiar Blockchain, also it's not complicated and newbie friendly.

You're right. It greatly benefited them when they purchased that domain name because the value of domain quickly rose because of users.

Do you still remember bter hack, cryptsy collapes etc. Users hav no way to get their money back coz they give money to others. Just be cautious to use exchange. They could turn out to be scams any time soon. You shoud have full control of the private key. Ther is nothing to do with how much you have. When you withdraw the money, you need to check it whether it gets confirmed in the network! or when you send money, you need to prove you have sent it. The best way is to quote the tx for the receiver.

The most times I am using blockchain.info. But sometimes blockchain.info is stuck and disfunctional. I have to choose another one like blocktrail instead.

I think, u r confusing wallets with block explorers. Sometimes they work under the same roof. But, the functionalities are different.

blockchain.info，it is very good！

Well most of the time I use Blockchain.info, but there were a couple of times that I went on some other block explorers by "mistake" or just to see how they look I think Blockchain.info is the best so far - it looks nice, the name is simple and has all the information that I need at the moment. Actually I didn't know that so many block explorer sites exist nice

im using blocktrail.com it's more complete, we can calculate the fee and the time of transaction will get 1 confirmation.

Many block explorer that you can see in google.. but some explorer are low in details slow website but i can suggest to you some explorer which is you can check everything this two are good site as of now many people are using it.. blocktrail and blockchain this 2 are good.. they are different and have different feature that you can not get to other block explorer.
In blockchain you can see live transaction and for blocktrail you can see how much time consume before you receive the bitcoin or its more details than blockchain..
Never tried the other explorer.  and i think the other block explorer are very slow..
