How to query on-chain activities through the block explorer?
For investors in the blockchain field, whether participating in an IEO on an exchange or investing in tokens, they will inevitably encounter a problem: What is the value of the assets I want to invest in? Where can I see the distribution of tokens?
At this time, a common practice is to query the chain details of digital assets through a blockchain browser. we takeTokenviewTake the Ethereum blockchain browser as an example to introduce how to query relevant information on the Ethereum chain.
First, we enter the Ethereum address to be queried in the browser search box. by address0xe7af11370c3bab51230d8307454350bdf6d68f4aAs an example, below are our search results.
On the address information page, we can see the address'sBalance, token balance, number of transactions, balance ranking and Nonceand other information.
We can quickly copy the address by clicking "Copy", and click the "QR Code" on the right to display the QR code form of the address, which is convenient for us to scan the code and transfer through the mobile wallet.
The name of this ordinary address is MCH:Owner, which means that this address is an address belonging to MCH, and its ETH balance is 210.69 ETH. The total number of transactions since the address was created is 538. The ranking 25675 here is the ranking of the number of Ethereum in the balance of all addresses in the entire Ethereum network.
The Nonce here means that for each additional transaction initiated by this address, the nonce will be increased by 1. Therefore, the number of transfers with the address as from (ie, the sender) is 458 times, and the preceding 538 is the total number of transfers, including transactions where the address is used as to (ie, the receiver).
Ethereum has many contracts and tokens, including ERC20, ERC721, etc. The token balance here is counted under the addressBalance of all Tokens。

The picture above shows the address in the past six monthsBalance Change Chart. By default, the graph shows the changes in the ETH balance of the address. If we enter the relevant Token name in the search box, we can also see the change of the balance of a certain Token in the address, which is very convenient.
Data on the chainData on the chainmethod introduction. In other words, the next time you plan to invest in a tokenized asset, you might want to take a look at the token’s recent on-chain transactions. Which addresses have the largest number of tokens, what proportion of exchanges are in it, and so on. In order to have a clearer understanding of the project itself and reduce investment risks.
