What Is SolScan?

SolScan is a blockchain explorer specifically designed for the Solana network. You can think of it as a search engine that allows you to explore everything related to the Solana blockchain. SolScan gives you access to a range of information, including transaction history, wallet addresses, smart contracts, and analytical insights into token and decentralized finance (DeFi) projects.

SolScan is free and an alternative to Solana Explorer. Its relatively user-friendly interface allows you to navigate its tools and resources. Let's start by familiarizing ourselves with SolScan's homepage. If you are familiar with EtherScan, you will notice that they share some common layout features.

The search bar is at the top of the homepage. You can use it to search for things like transaction hashes, wallet addresses, tokens, NFT collections, smart contract addresses, and block numbers.
