Hey everyone,
A quick update on what I’ve added to CipherScan since the last report. A lot of the work has focused on Ironwood, network visibility, and making the explorer faster and more reliable.
Ironwood Migration Analytics: Following mainnet activation, I expanded the migration dashboard with live pool flows, migration cohorts, denomination analysis, and ZIP-318 compliance checks covering amounts, expiry heights, and anchors. You can explore how migrations are happening and which patterns stand out. These are observable transaction patterns, not a guarantee of privacy. Explore Ironwood
Network Nodes Explorer: Added a dedicated nodes page powered by a Ziggurat crawler, with client/version breakdowns, geographic distribution, and an interactive topology graph. This gives a better view of the network visible to the crawler, including connections between nodes. Explore network nodes
Zero Indexer Attestation Monitor: A new public monitor for Zero Indexer endpoints, showing attestation checks, evidence freshness, and whether the running software matches an independently reproduced build. Unconfirmed builds and failed or stale checks are shown explicitly. View attestations
On-chain Analytics: Added a valuation page with realized cap, realized price, MVRV, and transparent UTXO age metrics including HODL waves and coin days destroyed. Shielded metrics use pool-level models, with methodology available on the page. The data is also available through public APIs. Explore analytics
Network Pulse: A live feed highlighting unusual activity across 12 network metrics, making it easier to spot changes in transaction activity, fees, and pool flows. View Network Pulse
NU7 Vote Hub: Added a dedicated page for the NU7 coinholder vote, with snapshot information and vote submission visibility in the block explorer. View the vote hub
Infrastructure & Performance
- Faster block, transaction, and analytics loading, with smaller Ironwood data downloads.
- More reliable live updates and reconnect handling.
- Database read offloading to a replica.
- Automated deployment health checks and rollback.
- Continued indexer optimization, security fixes, and historical analytics repairs.
Thanks again to everyone sharing feedback and reporting issues. It keeps helping me improve CipherScan.
Happy to answer any questions!
