The Parallax Block Explorer is like a search engine for the blockchain. It lets you see transactions, blocks, accounts, and balances directly on the Parallax network. With the explorer, you don’t need to trust anyone — you can verify everything yourself.

Why use the Explorer?

  • Check your balance without relying only on your wallet.
  • Track transactions to see when they are confirmed.
  • View blocks and see which miner produced them.
  • Explore the network and understand how Parallax works behind the scenes.

Getting Started

Open the official Parallax Explorer in your browser: 👉 https://explorer.parallaxchain.org

Searching for Your Account

  1. Copy your Parallax address (from MetaMask or the client).
  2. Paste it into the search bar of the explorer.
  3. Press Enter.
You’ll see:
  • Your current balance.
  • A list of incoming and outgoing transactions.
  • Your account’s transaction count (nonce).

Tracking a Transaction

When you send Laxes, MetaMask gives you a transaction hash (a long string starting with 0x).
  1. Copy the transaction hash.
  2. Paste it into the explorer’s search bar.
  3. The explorer will show:
    • Status: Pending or Confirmed
    • Block number: Which block included your transaction
    • From/To: Sender and recipient addresses
    • Amount: Laxes transferred
    • Gas used

Viewing Blocks

Click on a block number in the explorer to see:
  • Block height (its position in the chain)
  • Timestamp (when it was mined)
  • Miner (address that mined it)
  • Transactions included
  • Difficulty and hash

Tips

  • Bookmark the explorer to quickly check balances.
  • Use the transaction hash from MetaMask to confirm transfers.
  • Remember: if it’s not on the explorer, it didn’t happen on-chain.

✨ Now you know how to use the Parallax Block Explorer to independently verify accounts, transactions, and blocks!
