#  BTC RPC Explorer Simple, stateless Bitcoin blockchain explorer, via RPC. Built with Node.js, express, bootstrap-v4. This tool is intended to be a simple, stateless, self-hosted explorer for the Bitcoin blockchain, driven by RPC calls to your own bitcoind node. This tool is easy to run but lacks features compared to full-fledged (stateful) explorers. I built this tool because I wanted to use it myself. Whatever reasons one might have for running a full node (trustlessness, technical curiosity, etc) it's helpful to appreciate the "fullness" of a node. # Features * List of recent blocks * Browse blocks by height, in ascending or descending order * View block details * View transaction details, with navigation backward via spent outputs * View raw JSON output used to generate most pages * Mempool/unconfirmed transaction counts by fee (sat/B) # Getting started ## Prerequisites 1. Install and run a full, archiving node - [instructions](https://bitcoin.org/en/full-node). Ensure that your node has full transaction indexing enabled (`txindex=1`) and the RPC server enabled (`server=1`). 2. Synchronize your node with the Bitcoin network. ## Instructions 1. Clone this repo 2. `npm install` to install all required dependencies 3. Optional: Uncomment the "bitcoind" section in [env.js](app/env.js) to automatically connect to the target node. 4. `npm start` to start the local server 5. Navigate to http://127.0.0.1:3002/ 6. Connect using the RPC credentials for your target bitcoin node (if you didn't edit [env.js](app/env.js) in Step 3) # Screenshots ### Connect via RPC #  ### Homepage (list of recent blocks) #  ### Block Details #  ### Transaction Details #  ### Transaction, Raw JSON #  ### List of Blocks by height (in ascending order) #
