Ok, I’ve got it, it’s not about spying the Ethereum space. It’s more about curiosity. Ethereum blockchain is a public space with a lot going around, it can be easy to find out what is happening out there.
We all have twitter friends in the Ethereum space, and recently many of them just came out with a personnal ENS domain. I am curious. Do they play with DEFI products? Do they use Uniswap? I could go to a blockchain explorator, find out the address below the ENS. Go back to the explorator, paste the address, click multiple spreadsheets to grab details of their tokens position, collectibles and last transactions. No pain, no gain…Seriously!
We built a search engine that let you catch the vibe going on in Ethereum friends circle, and it’s especially friendly when using ens domains.
Let’s have a quick view of what we have about transactions for our address: 0xfFA7A52a7d30E5Bc81c031a717726FA638c76289
We have an ENS and a reverse set up linked to this address: whois0x.eth
Let’s see some of our transactions when querying through whois0x.io: https://whois0x.io/whois0x.eth
Well, this is a great display. Easy to understand.
We traded some BAT against ETH with Uniswap contract.
1 BAT has been sent to ellis2323.eth, our friendly dev. Note that we’ve got his twitter image icon because he filled his IDcard in his account. Easy for anyone to do that as well.
We did some ENS stuff, and got an ENS domain via betatester.eth. Check it out, here are some of his transactions:
As you can see he did some ENS stuff. Looks like interested in decentralized exchange like Opensea or IDEX, and is in the mood of open source video infrastructure services like Livepeer.
All of this is just crystal clear.
We focus on transactions there, but for balances, tokens, collectibles also displayed, check our previous stories.
Curious about friends, have a look at that
Many talks goes around ENS domains, we like a lot arachnid.eth owned by Nick Johnson as displayed on his twitter account. Here are few of his transactions:
He really is the guy on ENS, most of it up there are about it. He also got well deserved Kudos from gitcoin.
As a french team, we follow consensys france guys like jdetychey.eth also displayed on his twitter account.
Here we can feel the vibe in DEFI and liquidity providers. A lot is going on with compound and Kybernetwork. But he is also interseted in Kleros, the blockchain dispute resolution layer. Interesting indeed.
Many more could be added there, we let you go your own way on this.
Technical display priorities
Every Ethereum transaction is deeply analysed through their logs and internal transactions to give you only what matters to you. No bullshit talking, straight to the point.
On a technical point of view, the way we prioritize display is:
- ENS domain and reverse address display when available for any addresses.
- Accounts icons coming from twitter registered IDcards when available.
- Contracts icons and names coming from our database which we intend to open source to benefit everyone.
- Simplified view of understandable transactions. For example, when trading with Uniswap, we won’t show the extended list of what have been transfered to reach your goal which was to simply exchange a currency to another. Another example is to show your transactions limits authorizations granted to different contracts.
- Contract page with contract name, website and tags. Contract creator, but we choose to display the original creator address. For example, contract 2 created by contract 1 which has been created by Alice will show you that Alice is the creator of the contract 1.
Further improvements
We still work hard to provide a better UX experience on Ethereum. Our next focus will be on market watch and tokens display improvement.
