Blockchair has just announced the launch of its Stacks Explorer, expanding its commitment to providing thorough blockchain analytics.
This latest integration brings Blockchair’s robust search and analytics tools to the Stacks ecosystem, a prominent Bitcoin Layer 2 (L2) solution, and includes full support for sBTC, a 1:1 programmable Bitcoin asset introduced on the Stacks mainnet in December 2024.
The Stacks Explorer offers in-depth insights into on-chain activities such as transactions, addresses, smart contracts, and token data, making it easier for developers, researchers, and everyday users to engage with the network.

Stacks has played a vital role in expanding Bitcoin’s capabilities, making the launch of our Stacks Explorer a natural progression in reinforcing the broader Bitcoin ecosystem. We are thrilled to bring our advanced search and analytics tools to Stacks users and developers, making on-chain data more accessible and driving further innovation.”
