Real-Time Blockchain Insights with Chainlens

Blockchains are constantly growing, with new sets of transactions continually being appended to the blockchain.

For users of Chainlens to ensure they're aware of all of the activity taking place, we wanted to ensure that there were visual cues that make it easy to see activity taking place as it happens.

What's New?

Chainlens now provides users with live updates across all of its views. New data is automatically updated every few seconds so they can see on-chain activity taking place as it unfolds in real time.

Instead of relying on manual refreshes or waiting for updates to process, users can now see the blockchain come to life right before their eyes.

Imagine tracking a transaction and witnessing its confirmation in real time, or monitoring new blocks being added to the chain as they are mined. This feature offers a window into the blockchain’s dynamic environment, delivering a more engaging and insightful user experience.

Why Does Real-Time Matter?

In blockchain ecosystems, timely data is crucial for numerous reasons:

User: Users want to see updates to their accounts as they happen. By navigating to the account page in Chainlens, you will see transactions taking place as they happen.

Developers: When building decentralized applications (DApps), developers want to see what's happening to their DApps in real time. The integrated updates in Chainlens make it simple to monitor all transactions associated with the contracts used by their DApps.

Network Health Monitoring: For those managing nodes or concerned with the overall health of a blockchain network, seeing updates as they happening, underpinned by performance metrics can reveal crucial insights into network stability and security.

A Seamless Experience

One of the strengths of Chainlens’ design is its user-friendly interface, which translates complex blockchain data into something accessible for users of all experience levels. With real-time data now integrated, this experience is further improved.

Hitting Pause

We recognise too, that you don't always want updates to be happening, so we've also added a pause button, allowing you to pause real-time updates, giving you time to dig deeper into data. Then when you're ready to get back to live data you can hit the resume button.

Unlock the Power of Real-Time Data

This new feature marks a significant milestone in our mission to make blockchain data more accessible and actionable. As the web3 ecosystem continues to grow, so too does the need for tools that offer both power and simplicity.

With Chainlens’ real-time updates, we’re bringing blockchain closer to everyone—from web3 natives to curious newcomers.

Blockchains are constantly evolving and we want to ensure that users can easily see the changes as they are taking place.

If you'd like to try out this functionality for yourself, head over to one of our hosted instances, such as the Linea Network to see all this on-chain activity happening.
