Network and node stats

Network stats​

The dashboard gives you an overview of the following stats for the network:

Best block​

Shows the "heaviest" block in terms of cumulative difficulty. In other words, the latest block number of the longest valid chain.

Last block​

Shows the time, in seconds, since the last block was mined. This value is a good indicator of whether the network is still up and running. A value noticeably above the average time between blocks indicates that the network is no longer mining blocks.

Average block time​

Shows the average time, in seconds, it takes for the network to mine a new block.

Nodes​

Shows the number of nodes in this network.

Transactions/5m​

Shows the number of transactions in a 5-minute window, displayed for the last hour.
