Explorer

Introduction to Venn Testnet Explorer

The Venn Testnet Explorer is designed to provide transparency, traceability, and insights into the Venn network’s activities, both on-chain and off-chain. It allows dApps, developers, and protocol end-users to view real-time data across the Venn testnet. Venn Explorer offers a user-friendly interface for searching and interacting with the Venn ecosystem.

Use Cases

1. Transaction View

The Transaction View shows the most recent 25 transactions with essential details such as transaction security status, hash, sender, recipient, chain, and time. Quickly see whether a transaction was approved, rejected, or reverted by the network.

2. Expanded Transaction View

Expand specific transactions for detailed information, including block details, operators voting results, and a list of node operators. This allows you to investigate how the transactions were handled and analyze the decision-making process behind each transaction.

3. Filtering

Filter by transaction security status (Executed, Firewall Reverted, Venn Rejected, Venn approved), helping you focus on transactions with specific outcomes.

4. Search

Search specific transactions. Enter either a transaction hash or address into the search bar. The Explorer will retrieve all related transactions. After performing an initial search, you can add or remove addresses to broaden your search. This allows for detailed exploration of multiple transactions or activities.

5. Total Statistics

The Explorer displays total statistics for the Venn testnet, including the number of active protocols, operators, and total transactions.

6. Protocol Filter

The Protocol Filter lets you filter transactions based on specific protocols (dApps) within the Transactions View. Selecting one or multiple protocols by name or Venn policy address allows you to review transactions related exclusively to those protocols.

Transaction Security Status

The Venn Explorer offers a detailed view of the security status of each transaction processed through the network. This status reflects the results of Venn’s security checks and consensus validation. Below are the four possible statuses a transaction can have:

• Executed: The transaction has passed all security checks and was successfully executed on-chain.

• Venn Rejected: The transaction was flagged as not-secure and rejected before reaching the blockchain.

• Firewall Reverted: The firewall reverted the transaction on-chain, preventing execution.

• Venn Approved: The Venn network has approved the transaction and is preparing it for on-chain submission.
