# Block Explorers

Block explorers provide a user-friendly interface to view detailed information about blocks, transactions, accounts, and other on-chain data. The XION network is supported by multiple community-operated explorers, helping developers, validators, and end-users track on-chain activity.

We maintain a list of recommended block explorers for both **mainnet** and **testnet** in the [Cosmos chain registry](https://github.com/cosmos/chain-registry).

* **Mainnet Explorers**
  * <https://www.mintscan.io/xion>
  * <https://explorer.burnt.com/xion-mainnet-1>
  * <https://staking-explorer.com/explorer/xion>
  * <https://explorer.nodestake.org/xion>
  * <https://xion.explorers.guru>
* **Testnet Explorers**
  * [https://www.mintscan.io/xion-testnet](https://www.mintscan.io/xion-testnet.)
  * <https://explorer.burnt.com/xion-testnet-2>

### How to Add or Update Explorers

If you operate a block explorer or notice outdated explorer information, please consider opening a Pull Request (PR) in the [Cosmos chain registry](https://github.com/cosmos/chain-registry). You can update or add explorers by modifying the relevant XION files:

* [Mainnet `xion/chain.json`](https://github.com/cosmos/chain-registry/blob/master/xion/chain.json)
* [Testnet 1 `xiontestnet/chain.json`](https://github.com/cosmos/chain-registry/blob/master/testnets/xiontestnet/chain.json)
* [Testnet 2 `xiontestnet2/chain.json`](https://github.com/cosmos/chain-registry/blob/master/testnets/xiontestnet2/chain.json)
