Mempool | Get a real-time view of transactions on the NKN blockchain
Our community developer Mutsi just launched a brand new tool for the NKN community – NKN mempool explorer! But wait a second, what is mempool?
Sometimes you want real-time information about the blockchain before the blocks are confirmed and stored across all the consensus nodes. The dynamic pool that collects all the active transactions is the mempool. If we use newspaper as an analogy for blockchain explorer, mempool explorer is like watching the Bloomberg live feed of stock tickers. You can check your transaction live, as soon as it was submitted in your wallet.
Sometimes you get unexpected insights, like witnessing a new NKN node born. Awww, we all love babies!
