List of useful Bitcoin block explorers

[LoyceV]

where can i check whether a Bitcoin explorer works with/without JavaScript?

As an easy test: in Tor Browser, change the Security Level to "Safest". I just tried, and "Aurora Explorer" gives me only a white page.

at first glance, it’s a explorer that provides all the information you need and all search results are displayed smoothly

Thanks you cygan! If there will be no objections, I will add this website together when making the other changes mentioned above.
Let's wait also SFR10's input, then we'll make all changes at once

[SFR10]

Meanwhile, let me double-check with SFR10 that I am not forgetting any update which should be done, so I will add all at once:

SFR10, can you confirm these are all changes needed, please?

Sorry for responding very late, but due to my current situation of residing in a country that's in the middle of a war, with roughly "1% of connectivity", I was only able to get an unstable connection ^{[that I'm not sure how long it'll last]} with a very slow speed and because of that, most websites doesn't properly load on my side, so until things imrpove or become normal here, I can't properly contribute to this thread ^{[sorry for everything]}.

Update:

So sorry about the situation mate. A war scenario is no joke at all.
I wish you nothing but safety and good health all through the useless war. I pray you and other forum members will finally be able to get back on your feet once everything goes back to normal.

I appreciate your kind words and I hope all affected users are safe & healthy as well.

SFR10, I did not know you live there, sigh... I am very, very sorry to hear this... and also very worried... May you and you family be okay and safe... I will pray for you...
As for this topic -- it won't run anywhere, it will still be here when you can access it

Whenever you can, only look at this post, to confirm those changes and that would be all...

But now, most important thing is you to be safe... Please, be safe!

I usually go back and forth between Iran and the Philippines, but I have a strong feeling I'll migrate to another country in the near future ^{[assuming that things don't drastically improve]}.
^{- Thank you for the kind words (it means a lot)}

Well noted

I can finally confirm those changes ^{[sorry it took a while]}, but with regard to Aurora Explorer, I had no luck finding a way to identify Segwit addresses ^{[I believe everything loaded properly on my side, and in case I didn't miss anything, the third column should be changed to "No"]}.

[GazetaBitcoin]

I can finally confirm those changes

Many thanks, SFR10! And I hope you are well! May you and your family be safe!


And, after a long waiting, I applied all the changes discussed above:

- renamed the column "Rated" to "Submitted"
- at "Removed blockexplorers" section, the column "Rated" was also renamed to "Submitted"
- eliminated https://bitcoinexplorer.org
- added Gliese.io and Aurora explorers

I also PMed all translators, kindly asking them to apply the changes.

I believe the same test can be done on the clear net using the NoScript extension on a browser too (https://noscript.net/).  For people who want to do tests it may be even more convenient as the extension can be disabled and re enabled at any time in a click or two.

I wrote down a list of Block Explorers I found.  But I could not test most of them due to not running Java Script on my browser.  If anyone is interested to test them out, here is the list of my findings.

The following Block Explorers partially work without Java Script,
-Learn Me A Bitcoin (https://learnmeabitcoin.com/explorer/) (I can not use the Search function but I can click 'Address' at the top, then 'Random Address' and then I can replace the random one with mine by editing the link.  I actually like the simplicity of this one.)

The following Block Explorers do NOT work without Java Script,
-CoinStats (https://coinstats.app/explorer/bitcoin/) (may be using the Blockchair API)
-BitInfoCharts (https://bitinfocharts.com/bitcoin/explorer/) (the page loads but if I click any Address, I am asked to enable Java Script and Cookies)
-OKX (https://web3.okx.com/explorer)
-CryptoExplorerHub (https://cryptoexplorerhub.com/?)
-CoinEx Explorer (https://explorer.coinex.com/btc/)
-Apirone (https://explorer.apirone.com/)
-XScanner (https://xscanner.org/)
-Rawblock (https://www.rawblock.net/) (may not even be a Block Explorer?)

The following Block Explorers may not be functional at all,
-HashXP (https://hashxp.org/en/bitcoin/blocks)
-Blockhead (https://blockhead.info/explorer/bitcoin)

I can not express how thankful I am for this list.  I can not seem to remember the names of Explorers that work with no Java Script at all so this list is very handy.  Thank you for maintaining it, Gazeta!

Many thanks for this, PrivacyG!

But if you want to submit any of these websites, please use the template from OP...

Also, some of them already exist in OP --

-Learn Me A Bitcoin (https://learnmeabitcoin.com/explorer/) [...]
-BitInfoCharts (https://bitinfocharts.com/bitcoin/explorer/) [...]
-CoinEx Explorer (https://explorer.coinex.com/btc/)

So the ones which need to be checked if you wish to be submitted are these ones:

-CoinStats (https://coinstats.app/explorer/bitcoin/) (may be using the Blockchair API)
-OKX (https://web3.okx.com/explorer)
-CryptoExplorerHub (https://cryptoexplorerhub.com/?) [...]
-Apirone (https://explorer.apirone.com/)

The following Block Explorers may not be functional at all,
-HashXP (https://hashxp.org/en/bitcoin/blocks)

I can not express how thankful I am for this list.  I can not seem to remember the names of Explorers that work with no Java Script at all so this list is very handy.  Thank you for maintaining it, Gazeta!

Thank you for the kind words! All was / is possible only with the constant support of other users of the forum, which kept contributing to this topic

Sorry.  My fault!  After I got past about half of the list I completely forgot to also check the rest.  I was actually very excited to send Learn Me A Bitcoin but what have I done!

I will create the list using your template as adviced but considering I can not test any of them without Java Script, I will only fill the JS column and leave the rest for someone else to try out.

Name (link)	Bech32 / Bech32m (P2TR) supported?	SegWit (P2SH) identifiable?**	Works without JS?	Rated by

Thank you for this, PrivacyG, but I can not add them without all the info...
I am truly sorry but I also don't have the necessary time to test all these websites on my own.

So unless someone else will test them and update the proper info about them, they will not be added

What types of tests are needed?

What types of tests are needed?

Thank you for your interest into this, joker_josue!

We need to check if these explorers are functional and, if yes, then to check also if they support Bech32 / Bech32m (P2TR) and if they identify SegWit (P2SH):

The following Block Explorers may not be functional at all,
-HashXP (https://hashxp.org/en/bitcoin/blocks)
-Blockhead (https://blockhead.info/explorer/bitcoin)

And we also need to check if these explorers support Bech32 / Bech32m (P2TR) and if they identify SegWit (P2SH):

-CoinStats (https://coinstats.app/explorer/bitcoin/) (may be using the Blockchair API)
-OKX (https://web3.okx.com/explorer)
-CryptoExplorerHub (https://cryptoexplorerhub.com/?) [...]
-Apirone (https://explorer.apirone.com/)
-XScanner (https://xscanner.org/)
-Rawblock (https://www.rawblock.net/) (may not even be a Block Explorer?)

And, finally, we need to have these websites submitted in the format from OP (if they are good or worth mentioning).

But how do you usually conduct this type of test? Is it just a matter of testing "addresses" and "transactions"?
