  • Block explores — web-based tools that provide access to information on a blockchain, including block data, transactions, and addresses, allowing users to search, view, and analyze the network’s activity.
  • Smart contract analysis — the activity of specific smart contracts
  • DApp development — block information can be utilized in the development of decentralized applications.
