We recently gave you a sneak peek of Explore, XYO’s new platform for tracking your data, viewing a world map of active nodes, and other features. Now we’re going to show you some cool, new screenshots of what you’ll see if you’re logged in, and you have Sentinels, a bridge, or other devices.

This is the best way to maximize Explore: Logged in.

If you’re an XYO Network fan and you’ve followed our progress, you’ve probably been pleased with being able to see the network nodes on a map. But now you can see your own sentinels and nodes, making it personal (and fun).

When you log into your account, you’ll see a list of your claimed sentinels, your bridge (if you have one), and other devices. You can use the query feature to find specific devices — which is super easy if you give them a good, easy-to-remember name.

This next screenshot shows your actual devices on the map. If you’ve ever wondered where your Sentinel or bridge or other device fits in in a geographical context, here you go.

On this last shot, you’re seeing a list of bound witnesses that a device on the network has created. This is the origin chain. In each corner, you’ll see a number. That’s the number block, and you can see, from this image, that this device has created 332 bound witnesses.

If you’re a bit confused on what everything means, don’t worry — we’re working on making this as user-friendly as possible. But we’re proud to deliver a dashboard and platform to show the bound witnesses you’ve created, and how your data is contributing to the network!
