Monero Explorer

Read the Monero blockchain from a workflow: look up a transaction or a block, watch what is moving and what is waiting to confirm, and see the network's hash rate, its fees and the total coin supply. It can also answer the two questions Monero's privacy otherwise makes hard: whether a payment to your address has arrived, and proof to a recipient that you paid them. Amounts come back in XMR, times in UTC, and an encrypted amount is reported as encrypted rather than as zero. No account or API key is required. Disclaimer: this is an independent integration with the community-run Onion Monero Blockchain Explorer and its public instance at xmrchain.net; it is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the Monero Project.

Actions

Action	What it does
Check a transaction for a payment	Somebody says they paid you and gave you a transaction hash: this says whether that transaction really pays your address, and how much.
Check for a new payment	Ask whether anything has just been paid to your address, without needing to know a transaction hash.
Get coin supply	How much XMR exists, and how much has ever been paid in fees.
Get network status	How the Monero network is doing: the newest block, the mining difficulty and hash rate, how many transactions are waiting, and what a transaction costs to send at the moment.
List recent transactions	Every transaction from the newest few blocks, as one flat list with the block and time on each.
List transactions waiting to confirm	The transactions the network has seen but not yet put in a block, newest first, with how long each has been waiting.
Look up a block	Look up one block and everything in it: when it was mined, how big it is, what the miner earned, the fees it collected, and a line for each transaction.
Look up a transaction	Look up one Monero transaction by its hash: whether it has confirmed and how many times, which block it landed in, when, the fee, and its size and ring size.
Prove a payment you sent	Prove to a recipient that you paid them, when Monero's privacy means they cannot simply look it up.

Check a transaction for a payment

Somebody says they paid you and gave you a transaction hash: this says whether that transaction really pays your address, and how much. Monero hides amounts from everyone else, so this needs your wallet's private view key to read them: a key that can see incoming payments but can never spend.

Inputs

Transaction hashtransaction_hashtextRequired: The 64-character transaction hash, as it appears in a wallet or on a receipt.
Your Monero addressaddresstextRequired: The address the payment was sent to. 95 characters, or 106 for an integrated address.
Your private view keyview_keytextRequired: The private view key of the wallet that owns the address above. Find it in the Monero GUI under Settings > Wallet > Show seed & keys. A view key can only read payments coming in; it can never spend, and it is never stored by the explorer. It does let whoever holds it see what that address receives, so use a wallet you are willing to have read, or connect your own explorer.

Outputs

confirmationsnumber

explorer_urltext
notetext: Set only when nothing was found, explaining what else could account for that. Empty otherwise.
payment_countnumber
payment_receivedtrue/false
paymentslist: The outputs of the transaction that are yours.

}

Check for a new payment

Ask whether anything has just been paid to your address, without needing to know a transaction hash. It looks through the last five blocks and everything still waiting to confirm, which is about the last ten minutes, so schedule it to run at least that often, or a payment can slip past between runs. It needs your wallet's private view key, which can read incoming payments but can never spend. To check a payment you already have the transaction hash for, use 'Check a transaction for a payment' instead.

Inputs

Your Monero addressaddresstextRequired: The address the payment was sent to. 95 characters, or 106 for an integrated address.
Your private view keyview_keytextRequired: The private view key of the wallet that owns the address above. Find it in the Monero GUI under Settings > Wallet > Show seed & keys. A view key can only read payments coming in; it can never spend, and it is never stored by the explorer. It does let whoever holds it see what that address receives, so use a wallet you are willing to have read, or connect your own explorer.

Get coin supply

How much XMR exists, and how much has ever been paid in fees. Monero has no fixed cap: every block still creates 0.6 XMR, for ever, so the supply keeps rising slowly.

Inputs

None.

Outputs

circulating_supply_xmrnumber: Every XMR ever mined.
total_fees_paid_xmrnumber: Every transaction fee ever paid. These are existing coins moving to miners, not new ones.

Look up a block

Look up a transaction

Look up one Monero transaction by its hash: whether it has confirmed and how many times, which block it landed in, when, the fee, and its size and ring size. Monero encrypts the amount of almost every transaction, so the amount comes back empty and flagged rather than as a misleading zero; mining rewards and transactions from before 2017, whose amounts are public, keep their figures.

Inputs

Transaction hashtransaction_hashtextRequired: The 64-character transaction hash, as it appears in a wallet or on a receipt.

Outputs

amount_hiddentrue/false: True when the amount is encrypted on the blockchain and cannot be read by anyone but the parties to the transaction.
amount_notetext: Set only when the amount is encrypted, explaining why it is empty.
amount_xmrnumber: The amount in XMR. Empty when Monero has encrypted it, which is every transaction since 2017 apart from mining rewards.
block_heightnumber: Empty while it is still waiting to confirm.
confirmationsnumber: How many blocks have been built on top of this one. Ten is the usual bar for treating a payment as final.

Prove a payment you sent

Prove to a recipient that you paid them, when Monero's privacy means they cannot simply look it up. It takes the transaction's own key (the one your wallet shows under 'Prove/Check' for that transaction, which reveals nothing beyond that single payment) and confirms how much of it went to their address.

Inputs

Transaction hashtransaction_hashtextRequired: The 64-character transaction hash, as it appears in a wallet or on a receipt.
Recipient's Monero addressrecipient_addresstextRequired: The address you paid -- theirs, not your own. 95 characters, or 106 for an integrated address.
Transaction keytransaction_keytextRequired: This transaction's own secret key, from the Monero GUI under Transactions: find the payment, then Prove/Check. It proves this one payment and nothing else -- it is not your wallet's view key.
