Waves Ecosystem Data Tools Overview
The Waves ecosystem is packed with data tools created by the community itself to meet their own goals. These resources evolved out of the needs of users and developers who wanted to simplify their interactions with blockchain and make them more efficient. From Waves Explorer, provided by the Waves team, to a variety of solutions developed by enthusiasts, each tool reflects the unique contributions of the community.
Today, these tools cover a wide range of capabilities: from simple interfaces for beginners to sophisticated analytical platforms for experienced members. In this article, we will cover the key Waves resources: w8.io, wscan.io, and wavescap.com, and delve into the WavesOnChain (WOC) project, which opens up new horizons for the community.
First steps with Wscan.io
Wscan.io is a classic blockchain browser designed with beginners in mind. It offers basic functionality: viewing transactions, addresses and blocks in an easy-to-understand format.
Here you can easily find information about asset flows or check the status of a transaction. Wscan.io is ideal for those who are new to Waves and looking for a reliable way to navigate the ecosystem.
W8.io for a deeper dive into blockchain
W8.io is a tool often chosen by experienced Waves users due to its accuracy and convenience. It is an advanced blockchain browser with a simple interface where you can quickly find key information about transactions.
Specifically, it shows the transactions linked to particular nodes. W8.io is aimed at those who are already familiar with the basics of blockchain and want a clear summary without unnecessary details.
Wavescap.com: real-time ecosystem overview
Wavescap.com is another tool that focuses on the big picture of the Waves activity. This tool shows basic data about the ecosystem's coins, nodes and votes, and provides statistics on the activity of individual dApps.
Wavescap is handy for users who want to quickly assess the situation on the blockchain - for example, to check transaction volumes or token activity. Its interface is simple and intuitive, making it a great choice for those who need an overview without complicated customizations.
What is WavesOnChain?
While the previous tools help to better navigate the blockchain, WavesOnChain (WOC) goes further. It reveals the details of processes within the ecosystem and makes it easier to monitor individual projects. WOC is a real-time, in-depth analysis platform for onchain activity. It is designed so that users can not only see data, but also understand it better: what changed during the day, what assets grew, how resources are allocated. It is a tool that turns raw data into valuable insights.
One example is how it works with Power DAO. There, users can:
- Examine the detailed results of the votes - who voted on the proposals and how.
- View lists of voters and their choices.
- Evaluate DAO participation metrics and committed PWR tokens.
These features make the management processes and activities in the DAO transparent and available for analysis.
Custom solutions and support for WOC projects
WOC is not limited to analytics, it offers custom APIs and project support, which makes it indispensable for developers. For example, a special dashboard was created for the Puzzle project that uses WOC's custom code tool.
This solution helps Puzzle users gain market data and interact with the ecosystem more efficiently. WOC automates processes that would normally require manual analysis, providing ready-made insights to manage assets, participate in votes or create new solutions.
Community and growth
Our goal is to create a cycle of mutual benefit between Waves and the WOC project. We want to attract people from Waves to WOC, where they will gain knowledge and tools, and then bring them back to the ecosystem with new ideas. This strengthens ties between communities, increases engagement and fosters growth.
Our Telegram group and X account are open to anyone who wants to be part of this movement. The WOC website and Zealy quests are waiting for those who are ready to explore new opportunities to interact with the ecosystem.
