Transaction visualization

[sednax]

I started on a little project to visualize the transactions in the bitcoin network. It takes the data real time from blockchain and displays them in a nice way. Check it here: http://bitcoin.interaqt.nl/

Let me know what you think! And if you have any ideas/suggestions, let me know as well. Thanks!

Hey,

This looks great . How can I seed this with my own bitcoin address !!

This is pretty amazing, have you considered making it open source in the future?

It looks very clean and nice!   
Could you extend the max number of circles displayed?

I agree, more than 300 transactions would be nice.

Thanks for the input! I'm going to include some options:

- Enter an address so only transactions using that address are displayed
- Include a slider to set your own maximum amount of transactions
- Whenever a block is found, something is going to happen (but I'm not sure what yet)

I will create a better version of the code in the future (after it has a bit more features) to download. For now, you can just view the source code in your browser I use the Force feature of D3.js and the blockchain socket API to make this work.

Looks really cool! Can i use your source code and change a bit to have my server connections? Would leave all credits to you.

I'd be interested in the same!

It would looks better if that smaller ones will be more sticky to that bigger ones ;p And in transsaction info you can put input and output  addres transactions when its only connected 1to1 But it's just my opinion. Anyway its pretty cool!

I know this topic is a bit old, but I'd created a similar visualization at http://bitforce5.com/. It shows the transaction and links the input addresses (red) and output addresses (green) which are sized relative to their amount. Some interesting patterns appear. Should a block be mined, it connects to any related transactions. There are special buttons that track the top 10 output addresses or known gambling addresses. You can also drag-hold-drop nodes to stick them in place. And other options. It also has sounds relative to transaction size. My next move will be to improve GEOIP.

Since the code is all in javascript, you're welcome to read (plenty of comments and not minified).

Cheers
