Bitcoin block explorer
Bitcoin block explorer for the latest blocks.
Use this lightweight Bitcoin block explorer to follow recently mined mainnet blocks from Bitcoin Core. Check each block’s height, timestamp, transaction count, fees, mining reward, confirmation depth, and interval from the previous block.

Recent mainnet blocks
Newest first. Rewards combine the block subsidy and transaction fees reported by Bitcoin Core.
What does this Bitcoin block explorer show?
This page gives you a newest-first view of the blocks accepted by Bitcoin Core. Use it to check the current chain tip, compare recent block intervals, review transaction counts and fees, and confirm how deep each displayed block sits in the main chain.
How to read the latest Bitcoin blocks
Start with the chain tip, the newest accepted block height. Each card then shows the block hash, mined time, transaction count, total fees, subsidy plus fees, average fee rate, interval from the previous block, and confirmation depth.
What this lightweight explorer does—and does not do
This page is designed for recent block monitoring. It does not index address balances, full transaction histories, the mempool, or wallet ownership, and it cannot identify which solo miner will find a future block. Those tasks require a full indexed explorer.
Bitcoin block explorer FAQ
What can I check in this Bitcoin block explorer?
You can check the current chain tip and the most recently mined Bitcoin blocks. Each block includes its height, hash, timestamp, transaction count, total fees, mining reward, average fee rate, interval from the previous block, and confirmation depth. The page is intentionally limited to recent block-level data rather than every historical transaction or address.
Is the latest block data live?
Yes, when the connected Bitcoin Core node is available. The page requests a fresh mainnet snapshot when it opens, refreshes about once per minute while the tab is visible, and also provides a manual refresh button. The updated time tells you when the displayed snapshot was fetched; it is not the mining time of every block.
Can I search a Bitcoin transaction ID or address here?
Not in this lightweight version. It shows recent block-level data only, so it cannot look up a TXID, trace inputs and outputs, check an address balance, or display the full mempool. Use a full indexed Bitcoin explorer for those tasks. This narrower scope keeps the page fast and makes its data source and limitations clear.
Where does this Bitcoin block explorer get its data?
The server requests blockchain state and per-block statistics from a Bitcoin Core mainnet node through a private RPC connection. RPC credentials stay on the server and are never sent to the browser. If the node is unavailable, still syncing, on the wrong network, or returns an incomplete snapshot, the page reports the failure instead of presenting it as live data.
What does the confirmation count on a block mean?
The chain-tip block has one confirmation in this view. Each valid block built after it increases that count by one, so older blocks appear deeper in the accepted chain. This page reports block confirmation depth, not the acceptance policy of a wallet, exchange, or merchant; those services may apply their own requirements to a payment.
Why do Bitcoin block times vary so much?
Bitcoin mining is probabilistic. The protocol targets an average interval of roughly ten minutes over time, but individual blocks can arrive seconds apart or take much longer. A fast or slow recent block does not create a timing debt for the next one. Use the displayed interval as historical context, not as a countdown or prediction.
