2024, Aug, 15 – RGB++ Explorer, a game-changer for the Bitcoin and CKB ecosystems, has officially launched. This innovative tool offers users a comprehensive platform to explore the intricacies of these blockchains.
With real-time tracking of RGB++ transactions, detailed asset information, and on-chain search capabilities, the explorer enhances transparency and user experience. This is particularly crucial for the development of innovative fields like BTCFi, which rely on a clear understanding of on-chain activity.
As a key infrastructure for the RGB++ Layer, the explorer provides a seamless view of cross-chain assets and transactions, bridging the gap between Bitcoin and CKB. Users can easily access vital information like addresses, transaction hashes, block hashes, and asset IDs.
The RGB++ Explorer is poised to become an essential tool for anyone interested in exploring the potential of Bitcoin and CKB, paving the way for greater innovation and adoption within these ecosystems.
About RGB++
RGB++ is a protocol built on the Bitcoin blockchain that enables the creation and management of digital assets and applications. It is designed to be secure, scalable, and interoperable, making it a powerful tool for building a decentralized future.
About CKB
CKB is the first fully BTC-isomorphic L2 (PoW+UTXO), offering a more decentralized, secure, and Bitcoin-compatible L2 solution.
CKB scales Bitcoin’s programmability and interoperability with RGB++ protocol, which maps Bitcoin UTXOs to CKB Cells, enabling the seamless transfer of Bitcoin L1 UTXO-based assets such as Ordinals, Atomicals, and Taproot, to CKB without any cross-chain bridge and vice versa. UTXO Stack, a Bitcoin L2 “OP Stack” secured by CKB and powered by RGB++, enables high-performance parallel chains, offering near-unlimited scalability without compromising security. CKB Lightning Network will connect with Bitcoin’s Lightning Network, facilitating a bi-directional, censorship-resistant, permissionless and trustless flow of assets between the two networks.
CKB mainnet launched in Nov. 2019 and completed its first mining reward halving in Nov. 2023.
