ANCORA Block Explorer Design & Implementation Standard
1. Explorer Overview
The ANCORA block explorer provides transparent, verifiable access to public blockchain data while preserving user privacy. The explorer never exposes private transaction amounts, individual balances, or user identities.
2. Public Data Scope
Only the following data may be displayed publicly:
✅ Block headers, heights, timestamps, and proposer information
✅ Transaction hashes and inclusion status
✅ Global aggregate supply metrics (total, circulating, burned, reserved)
✅ Validator set information and performance metrics
✅ Governance proposals and voting results
✅ Network statistics (TPS, block time, node count)
✅ Aggregate transaction volume and fee metrics
❌ Individual transaction amounts (never displayed)
❌ Individual wallet balances (never displayed)
❌ User identity or personal information (never displayed)
❌ Input/output address linkage (never displayed)
