Solscan: Your Pocket Blockchain Investigator
Today, dear friends, there’s nothing more relevant than transparency. The days when blockchain felt like sorcery are over. These days, it’s all about knowing who, when, and for how much — and for Solana, that means using Solscan.
Solscan is the public investigator of the Solana blockchain. Think of it as your browser-based forensic toolkit. In this guide, we’ll walk through all its features, like digital detectives with a magnifying glass and curiosity.
How to Access Solscan
Open main page
Once you’re there, you’ll find a sleek dashboard full of slots, accounts, and a never-ending scroll of transaction history.
You can search by:
Wallet address
Transaction hash
Token address
Program (smart contract)
SNS domain name (if you’re that lucky)
Overview Section
When you land on a wallet or token, the Overview tab is your first stop.
Here, you’ll find:
SOL and token balances
Total transactions
Account creation date
Linked addresses (if it's a contract)
From this, you can quickly decide: are you looking at an active wallet, an old burner, a bot, a pool, or a degenerate NFT hunter?
Transactions: The Timeline of Behavior
Transactions tab = real-time behavioral history.
Each entry includes:
Timestamp
Status (Success/Failed)
Type (Transfer, Stake, Vote...)
Sender & receiver links
Click any transaction for full details: instructions, fee paid, logs, and all internal movement.
Token Balances: What They Hold
The Token Holdings tab shows all tokens on an address:
Token logos and symbols
Quantities and USD estimates
Token creator and metadata
If it’s a shady token called “ElonMoonJesusX” minted 20 minutes ago and held by 3 wallets — you’ve been warned.
NFT Section
NFTs tab is your window into JPEG land:
Images and names
Collection info
Token IDs and ownership
Perfect for spotting collectors, flippers, or people with a suspicious love for pixel raccoons.
Token or Contract Details
Looking at a token or program contract gives you:
Number of holders
Market data (via CoinGecko, if available)
Deployment history
Source code (if verified)
Staking Accounts
Solana supports native staking — and Solscan shows it all:
Stake accounts linked to a wallet
Chosen validator
Amount staked
Status: Active, Deactivating, Inactive
Especially useful when analyzing big wallets like exchanges or DAO treasuries.
Gainers, Losers & Markets
Solscan isn't a DEX screener, but it does show:
Token price movement
Trading volumes
Liquidity stats
Top holders
This can be found in the Market tab — a nice overview before jumping into anything new.
Watchlists and Alerts
Once logged in (via email or wallet), you can:
Create watchlists (wallets, tokens, NFTs)
Get email/Telegram alerts for transactions
Conclusion
Solscan is your glass-bottom boat for cruising through Solana’s depths. It doesn’t predict the future — but it shows you the full past.
Use it. Explore with it. Suspect everything. And stay curious.
