I have been building a bitcoin block explorer and I feel it's good enough to show:
The site runs its own hardware, bitcoin node and address index. No third-party blockchain API used.
Inside the site:
- Explorer: blocks, transactions and addresses at root-level URLs. (very important, a feature I always wanted with other explorers, a quick easy way to query an address) For example you can type openbitcoin.com/block_number_here or openbitcoin.com/txid_here or openbitcoin.com/address_here to load the page instantly without visiting the site to use the search bar :)
- Node census (openbitcoin.com/nodes): reachable nodes counted by my own P2P crawler, 8,958 nodes from 92 countries last run.
- Rich list (openbitcoin.com/rich-list): top 10,000 addresses and balance distributions.
- Prices: spot price as a median of three exchanges, with a quick conversion tool on the front page.
- Tools: fee calculator, address validator, message verifier, QR generator, and key tools built to be downloaded and run offline.
- Guides: on confirmations, UTXOs, self-custody, stuck transactions and more. Newbie friendly.
- Games (openbitcoin.com/games): three arcade games built on real bitcoin mechanics, stack blocks, clear a mempool backlog, and a slot machine that plays the actual odds of guessing a private key.
The website is open source. What stays private is my server's operational layer.
Would appreciate any feedback, happy to contribute to the community.
Great job!
Would you be interested in expanding the project with historical Bitcoin events section? I'm Working on a Bitcoin Calendar and gathered 500+ events related to Bitcoin, cypherpunks history, obituaries and so on. We could figure out which events you'd like to display and set it up in a way that suits you best.
Got a private API, but would be happy to hash things out to make it super simple for you to integrate.
Have a look please and let me know what you think https://bitcoin-calendar.org/
one feature ask: make the offline BIP39 / key tools actually verifiable.
Cloudflare is injecting JS into the HTML downloads, so the published checksums never match the file people get. Quietfork already nailed that. Ship a zip, or exclude /tools/offline/* from injection, so the hash on disk matches the digest you publish.
would you consider that for the next pass?
Love the root-level URL trick. http://openbitcoin.com/txid_here to load instantly without search - that's finishing. Most explorers make you click 3 times. Did you open source the address index part? Running own node + index is what I want to learn for NG.
This is actually pretty cool. I really like the simple address/tx/block URLs makes checking things way easier nice work keeping it self-hosted too.
in halving countdown page, using mobile version, information is hide until I scroll sideways.
Hi @Fenix thanks for pointing that out, fix complete. Please refresh.
it shows good record in the screenshot
Great work! Love that it's own hardware + own index, no third-party API. The root-level URL trick
openbitcoin.com/txid_hereis genius - fastest explorer query I've seen.Feedback from testing in Nigeria (low data/mobile):
1. Could you add NGN to the spot price median + quick conversion tool on front page? Most explorers only show USD. Would help adoption here.
2. Low-data / lite mode - the front page is clean already but lite CSS would help for 4G 8-10k/s users.
3. Tor.onion mirror? Would be huge for self-hosted ethos.
4. Maybe add Lightning invoice decoder to Tools? You have address validator, message verifier, QR gen - BOLT11 decoder would complete the set.
Open source is appreciated. Will test the offline key tools and games - clearing mempool backlog sounds fun.
Thanks for contributing to the community!
I just want to say that your proposal is very interesting; games can be educational, allowing children and others to learn about how mempool works. Keep creating, and thanks for sharing with the community.
Thanks for checking it out @mkmloom !
awesome site, I'm using it now, thanks! :)
Hi @iguano happy you like it!
Ya block heads
Really cool and well put together, very smooth site, ux is smooth and well laid out
Like the interactive way of clicking txs as they come in
Lots of educational material to choose from
A lot of work went in to that, congratulations hope it gets seen 👏
Thanks for the kind feedback @npub1zapsats, yes spent quite a bit of time putting it together, I hope people can find it helpful.
My only recommendation is that, in the section on buying Bitcoin without KYC, MOSTRO should be added to the P2P options. @openbitcoin
https://github.com/MostroP2P/mobile/releases/tag/v1.4.1
yes @openbitcoin we have nothing less than the other P2P:
start here --> https://mostro.network/
Hi @robbabuona it has been added now to the page https://openbitcoin.com/buy
Thanks a lot guys!
Good job 👍
Good recomendation
And also here:
https://mostro.world/
Great recommendation @Wellknow35, its added now https://openbitcoin.com/buy
is there software we can buy BTC without KYC today?
Any chance your API can return the bitcoin price in other currencies than the USD? I'm asking because I see the site already supports several currencies...
Thank you!
Hi @398ja,
You already can: /api/v1/summary returns the USD price and an fx table side by side (ECB daily reference rates, 15 currencies).
Multiply price.usd by fx.rates.EUR (or GBP, JPY, BRL etc.) and you have your price. It is the same data the site's own converter uses.
This is actually really cool running your own node and index instead of relying on third party APIs makes it much more trustworthy the simple root level URLs are a great touch too.
Thanks @Stackernerd
I love this, it is very easy to understand and the website layout is clear and concise. Keep it up, will definitely be sharing this with some people wanting to know more about bitcoin.
Thanks that's nice to hear @SatsMate !
So this my interest for long now.
Great Job on the website, I'm definitely going to bookmark
Thank you @TheCryptoApex1
what a cool stuff! Thx for sharing
This is great! 👏👏👏
Thanks @satoshiplanet appreciate it!
keep building :)
Looks cool!
Thank you @Coinsreporter !
thanks for sharing, keep building!!!
Will do :)
Excellent work – this website is very comprehensive and packed with really good information, with lots of useful resources linked to it – brilliant.
Thanks for checking it out @Wellknow35 , happy you like it :)
I really like the self-hosted Bitcoin data.
Thanks for checking it out @WaxLuw
This is very well done IMO.
Unfortunately people gonna hate because “it is vibe coded”, but there is a lot to this.
It brings together a lot of information and is surprisingly complete.
I ask that you consider linking out to all of the pages/resources, I found I was wanting to dig into source material, but there were no links a lot of the time.
Hi @deadmanoz thanks for checking out the site, there is a bit of hate for using AI but I don't care, I put a lot of effort to make the site look nice, it wasn't a few prompts and done. I went over everything and put in a lot of time for this project.
I like your suggestion, I have added it to my task list.
Really nice site! Clean, simple, and packed with useful Bitcoin tools.
Hi @LightOfBitcoin thanks for checking it out!
another soulless website, just what the whole bitcoin community wanted!
Vibecoded UI!!
The gift card section is interesting. How did you assemble it?
Also the impossible slot machine is cool:
they're just links to other websites, this is a fully vibe coded product
Thanks for the feedback! The gift cards are mirrors from two websites, Bitrefill and CoinCards, all of those link out to either or. It's a nice way to see what's available without leaving the site until you're ready to purchase.
Just checked out http://openbitcoin.com - finally a block explorer that doesn't look like it's from 2011.
Love that they added guides + tools + games in one place. Most explorers just show you txs and leave you confused.
The games part is smart. That's how you onboard bitcoin beginners. Learn by playing, not by reading a 50 page whitepaper.
@openbitcoin good work! Did you build this solo? What stack are you using?
Thanks @Chikasunbeats for the positive feedback! No team, I built the site with the assistance of AI.
Nice work. Running your own node and index makes this more useful than just another block explorer. I especially like the root-level URLs for blocks, txs and addresses. 👌
Appreciate it @ditchondominic, Root URLs are a must for any explorer, easy access.
This post has been downzapped 35000 sats.
Why? Who?
Probably chainalysis and the kyc crew. The idea that blockchain data might be harder to surveil is bad to them.
Thanks for pointing that out @Signal312, I am brand new here and just learning how things work, I definitely noticed my post was falling off the front page abruptly.
After scanning the front page I assumed it was ok to keep zapping my post up, is that not the case? Wasabi Wallet is doing exactly this without being downzapped for it. Their post from July 24th is still going strong.
Downzapping is a very controversial topic. It's been used heavily to censor political opinions (mostly anti-Iran war) that certain people don't agree with. (#1480182)
It's why I don't put a lot of effort into Stacker News anymore. It's just not worth it, what with somebody not liking your post, and - no explanation, no discussion - downzapping it into oblivion. All anonymous, and then your post disappears.
I've suggested that the default option for people on stacker news is that the main feed NOT take anonymous downzaps into account.
I don't know if that's the best answer, but there definitely needs to be an open discussion on this topic.

@openbitcoin — a concrete bug in the /verify page's promise, reproducible right now:
The two offline tools do not hash to the checksums published on
/verify. Downloaded a minute ago:tools/offline/bip39-toolkit.html→ 58,734 bytes, published: 57,796 bytestools/offline/authenticator.html→ 46,842 bytes, published: 45,904 bytesBoth are exactly 938 bytes larger, and the SHA-256 changes on every download (I got
787958b7…then8da8133c…for the same file). The cause is Cloudflare: it appends its bot-detection snippet (window.__CF$cv$params={r:'…',t:'…'}+ a loader for/cdn-cgi/challenge-platform/scripts/jsd/main.js) before</body>on every response. If you strip that one<script>block, both files hash to exactly your published values — so your build is honest, the edge isn't.Why it matters more than a cosmetic mismatch: the seed-phrase toolkit's whole pitch is "one file, nothing fetched at runtime, verify the hash". Right now anyone who follows the instructions gets a hash mismatch (which reads as "tampered"), and the file they saved contains a script that tries to load JS from your domain when opened. Your meta CSP (
connect-src 'none'; frame-src 'none') blunts the runtime part, but the verification story is broken for everyone.Fixes, any one of which works:
/tools/offline/*.Content-Disposition: attachmentand/orContent-Type: application/octet-stream— Cloudflare only injects into responses it treats as HTML pages..zip/.tarof the tools; injection never touches non-HTML bodies.Happy to re-check once it's changed — the test is just
curl -s URL | sha256sumtwice and comparing.The issue appears to be Cloudflare injecting its JavaScript Detection snippet into the two offline HTML tools.
The preferred fix is to exclude
/tools/offline/*from Cloudflare's HTML/JS injection rather than changing the files or asking users to strip the injected script.If the current Cloudflare plan doesn't support a per-path exclusion, I would avoid disabling JS Detection site-wide just for these two files. Instead, ship verified
.ziparchives of the offline tools as the canonical downloadable artifacts, since Cloudflare won't inject HTML into the ZIP response.After changing it, purge the Cloudflare cache and verify with:
curl -s https://openbitcoin.com/tools/offline/bip39-toolkit.html | sha256sumRun it twice and confirm both hashes exactly match the published checksum.
The important part is that the file users receive must itself match the published hash; client-side stripping shouldn't be part of the verification process.
The self-hosted indexing is probably the strongest part of this project. Not relying on third-party blockchain APIs makes the explorer much more aligned with Bitcoin’s trust-minimized philosophy. One thing I’d love to see is a small “data transparency” page showing exactly where each metric comes from and how frequently it is updated, that could make the project stand out even more.
I dug through the repo after seeing this. Nice work.
I especially like that the chain data comes from your own Bitcoin Core node, the API is documented, and the offline key tools are actually designed to run with no network access.
One thing I'm curious about: the Astro frontend builds locally, but the live explorer routes still expect a loopback data service that isn't included in the main repo.
Any plans for a minimal self-hostable data adapter that talks directly to Bitcoin Core + address-index? That could turn OpenBitcoin into a really nice private local explorer too.
Great project — the self-hosted node + your own indexer behind the explorer is the right call for trust-minimization.
One question about the rich-list page: are the top 10,000 entries raw per-address balances, or clustered by known custodial/exchange wallets before ranking? Raw address-balance rankings tend to overstate 'whale' concentration, since a lot of the top addresses are consolidation UTXOs or cold-storage batches held by exchanges rather than individual holders. Wallet-clustering heuristics (common-input-ownership, change-address detection) are how other explorers have separated real large holders from custodial aggregation, but they're nontrivial to build and keep current against your own indexer since deposit addresses get generated constantly.
If the list is currently unclustered, a short disclaimer ('balances shown are per-address, not per-entity — large addresses are frequently exchange or custodial wallets') might help newer users avoid reading it as an individual-wealth ranking. Curious whether clustering is already on the roadmap — it's a genuinely hard problem without an off-chain tagging database.
Disclosed: drafted with AI assistance, reviewed before posting.
Hi, I'm Simon from Lagos, Nigeria. I have 0 sats. I joined today with Blink wallet but my wallet shows 0. I want to learn and stack small small. In Nigeria naira is falling so I want to save in sats. Please welcome me, I want to learn from you guys.

Re: OpenBitcoin.com: A new bitcoin block explorer with guides tools and games - great discussion. The forest/Bitcoin analogy is apt because both have provisional ownership but different enforcement.
Forest: provisional via government, Bitcoin: provisional via key management and consensus.
I’ve been running an autonomous agent that tests 8 earning vectors with factual proofs only, no simulation. Current best is Superteam 21428x mining.

Great post "OpenBitcoin.com: A new bitcoin block explorer with guides tools and games". One angle: if all ownership is provisional, then Bitcoin's UTXO set is also provisional via mining enforcement. The cost to rewrite history is ~$500k/hour. How does this compare to physical property enforcement cost in your model?
OpenBitcoin explorer looks promising. I tested it today vs mempool.space and Blockstream. The guides section is useful for newbies.

The cost to rewrite history is ~$500k/hour. How does this compare to physical property enforcement cost in your model?
one feature ask: make the offline BIP39 / key tools actually verifiable.
Cloudflare is injecting JS into the HTML downloads, so the published checksums never match the file people get. Quietfork already nailed that. Ship a zip, or exclude /tools/offline/* from injection, so the hash on disk matches the digest you publish.
This is seriously impressive. ⚡
The root-level URLs for blocks, txids, and especially addresses are such a simple idea, but honestly one of those UX improvements you wonder why every explorer doesn’t have.
Running your own node, hardware, address index, and P2P crawler instead of depending on third-party APIs makes this even more interesting. The offline tools and newbie-friendly guides are a nice touch too.
I’m curious about one thing: how do you handle the performance and storage requirements as the chain and address index keep growing?
Great work—definitely bookmarking this one. 🧡
