BitFlyer launches new block explorer

BitFlyer has recently launched a new block explorer, with which it expects to provide a more colorful and creative offering amidst the budding landscape for online bitcoin tools.

Called as chainFlyer, the visualizer will provide an illustrated environment in which users can analyse individual bitcoin transactions, examine completed blocks on the bitcoin ledger and look for information on the blockchain.

Transactions are shown as multicolored charms that slide down from the top of the screen, chiming when they fall to the browser floor. Blocks are depicted as boxes that can be opened and analysed for transaction information.

"This is very similar to Blockchain.info except we have the scrypts and commands of each transaction", CEO Yuzo Kano told CoinDesk.
