Overview

Monitoring on-chain transactions in the Rayls Privacy Ledger is crucial for maintaining transparency, security, and operational efficiency. This guide explains how to monitor these transactions using a block explorer, with a focus on leveraging open-source solutions for flexibility and customization.

What is a Block Explorer?

A block explorer is a web-based tool that allows you to search, view, and track blockchain transactions. It provides insights into transaction statuses, block information, and account balances, enabling users to monitor the blockchain's activity in real time.

In the Rayls ecosystem, we recommend using open-source block explorer projects to facilitate transaction monitoring. Open-source solutions allow for customization, making it easier to tailor the monitoring tools to specific needs.

BlockScout is currently the recommended block explorer for Rayls Privacy Ledgers. BlockScout is an open-source tool that supports EVM-compatible blockchains, providing a user-friendly interface for tracking transactions and blocks.

Customization: BlockScout can be customized to fit the specific requirements of your Rayls Privacy Ledger, offering flexibility in how you monitor on-chain activities.
