# Use a Block Explorer

A block explorer is an application used by every blockchain to allow users to view transactions being carried out on that blockchain. It can give an overview of other on-chain activities. It is comparable to a digital passbook.

Block explorers are also used to verify smart-contracts after they are deployed.

One blockchain may have more than one block explorer.

## Chiliz Chain Mainnet block explorers

Chiliz Chain has two block explorers for its Chiliz Mainnet, which you can use to see recent transactions.

You can also use them to view your own transactions and statuses, display your collected NFTs, look up other addresses, view transaction history, and verify your smart-contracts.
