The search bar allows for retrieving blocks, transactions or accounts by hash, shard ID, and block height.

Transactions counter

The transactions counter shows the total number of transactions recorded during a particular time period. It also contains a bar chart showing how many transactions were recorded during the selected time interval.

Latest blocks

The latest blocks table shows information about newly generated blocks including their height, shard ID, date, and transaction count.
