Multi‑Chain Explorer
A single search in a block explorer for many blockchains that understands any hash, address, token or block height and routes you to the right network with a consistent, readable result view.
Why multi‑chain explorers matter
Crypto activity has fragmented across many networks, each with its own tooling. Analysts, builders and support teams frequently follow flows that begin on Ethereum, bridge to Polygon for fees, mint on Solana, and settle on a rollup. Switching between Etherscan, Polygonscan, Solscan, Snowtrace and bespoke explorers adds friction: different layouts, different query rules, and different interpretations of the same concepts. A multi‑chain explorer collapses that complexity into a single interaction pattern. You paste an identifier once, and you get the same high‑quality readout regardless of chain.
FoxChain focuses on clarity and speed. The UI is static—no framework hydration, no analytics—so results render immediately. Keyboard navigation is first‑class and copyable fields are clearly labeled. Most importantly, the information architecture is stable across networks. An ERC‑20 transfer, a Solana token instruction and a Bitcoin UTXO movement are summarized using the same language so you can compare like‑for‑like.
Limits of single‑chain explorers
Etherscan & friends
Etherscan, Polygonscan and similar tools are excellent for EVM chains, but they are not designed for cross‑network context. Each site has different filters and labeling conventions, which makes correlating transactions across chains slow. Cross‑domain concepts like bridges or wrapped assets often require manual hops and mental translation.
Solscan & non‑EVM explorers
Solana, Cosmos and Bitcoin explorers reflect the underlying protocol models. That precision is valuable, but switching to a different mental model on every hop is exhausting. Field names, pagination and address formats vary, so routine checks become scattered tasks rather than a streamlined investigation.
The consequence is lost time. Teams triaging deposits, investigating exploits or helping customers can spend more energy on browsing than on thinking. FoxChain solves this by unifying the interaction model and normalizing core entities.
How FoxChain creates a unified view
Layered detection and routing
A detector inspects the shape of the query—length, radix, checksum rules, prefixes—to propose a chain with confidence scores. For ambiguous inputs, FoxChain presents gentle disambiguation instead of cryptic errors. From there, a network adapter retrieves canonical data and maps it into a stable schema.
Normalization without loss
Rather than flattening everything to the lowest common denominator, FoxChain keeps protocol‑specific richness available on demand. For example, Solana instructions are grouped as events with clear labels while preserving the original accounts list; Bitcoin inputs and outputs are summarized as transfers while surfacing script types. Power users can drill down, but casual users always see a friendly summary first.
Readable, comparable cards
Result pages use the same cards everywhere—overview, participants, fees, transfers, events, and related links—so your eye knows where to look. Consistent typography, spacing and color contrasts are tuned for dark mode work, making long sessions less tiring.
Comparing FoxChain with chain‑specific explorers
- Unified search: One input accepts addresses, hashes, tokens and blocks across chains, rather than distinct sites and forms.
- Consistent IA: Identical layout and terminology reduce cognitive switching and training time for teams.
- Fast & lightweight: Static site generation means minimal bytes and excellent Core Web Vitals.
- Trust but verify: Every entity links to the native explorer (Etherscan, Solscan, Mempool, etc.) for raw inspection when needed.
- Cross‑network breadcrumbs: Bridge hops and related addresses are surfaced to help you follow the money.
- Accessible by design: Keyboard‑friendly controls, aria labels, and good contrasts.
FoxChain is not a replacement for specialized tools. It is the front door you open first—especially when you do not know which chain you are dealing with. From there you can branch out to protocol‑specific views as necessary.
Use it your way
Investigators can paste a hash and move on. Developers can integrate the same capabilities programmatically through the FoxChain API. Teams that need predictable spend can choose a plan on the pricing page. If you just need to quickly determine the chain for an identifier, try Detect Blockchain.
