Bitcoin, like any distributed system, very dynamic courses to Vietnam currencies, the volume and number of transactions, mining output and other indicators are constantly changing. Monitor all network activity to be not only informative but also useful and even necessary, if you are engaged in the extraction (mining), trading and investing or have any service related to Bitcoin. In this article we describe the most useful services on statistics and network monitoring.
To begin, we note that the main statistical indicators of the Bitcoin network like any other cryptocurrency, a little bit. Consider the resources of the crypto currency in several categories:
Blockchain explorers - analysis of the Blockchain, technical parameters and network statistics. Show the number and the volume passing through the network transactions, various trends over a period of time. Find addresses and transactions.
Sites for traders. Movements in the major currencies and trading volumes. Charts and technical analysis.
Sites for miners. Main indicators of mining – the complexity, the dynamics of the network capacity, the number of blocks found over a period of time, their distribution between the pools.
All these indicators can be found on dozens of sites devoted to Bitcoin, so to describe them all is not necessarily enough to stay the most comfortable and provides the greatest amount of useful information.
Blockchain.info
Blockchain.info - the largest and most popular resource about Bitcoin, contains a wealth of information and a complete set of services for working with cryptocurrencies. One of the best sites network monitoring Bitcoin. Has a multilingual interface, including Russian. It can be argued that all sites that are devoted to the analysis of the Blockchain and collect statistics about Bitcoin one way or another look up to Blockchain.info. So it will be the first and take a look at the sections in more detail.
Graphics
A few dozen graphics that show all aspects of network operation and Economics of Bitcoin. Data can be downloaded in CSV format for processing in databases and spreadsheets or in JSON for use on Internet sites. There is a full set of graphs showing the current number of coins, total value (capitalization) of the network, the volume of transactions and much more.
In addition to the main section there are interesting graphics that are missing on majority of similar sites and that may help the analyst or trader in the network analysis of Bitcoin. A few examples:
Market price in USD. The chart calculates the average price based on data from several bitcoin exchanges. This approach allows you to see more "real" value of one BTC in the market in General, not a specific site.
The ratio of trading volume/number of transactions. This information will allow us to estimate what amount of Bitcoin exchange went through and past them. If the value of the ratio increases, it means the flow of money in the exchange as a result of possible fluctuations, and a decrease indicates a "quiet" market.
The number of transactions without long chains. "Long chains" are called transactions, which consist of several intermediate before reach the destination. Typically, such transactions occur in the services of mixing when aiming for more anonymity of transactions is divided into many small that are sent to the recipient via several transit locations. Long chains distort the number of actual transactions and do not allow to accurately determine the current dynamics of the market, which is very important for the analyst.
Statistics
In addition to "snapshot" the current state of the network Bitcoin on the Blockchain. info you can find a lot more information:
Lists unconfirmed, suspicious and very large transactions.
Rejected and unconfirmed blocks
The most popular ' receive Bitcoin
A list of top Bitcoin connected nodes
Globe network and the total list of nodes connected to BlockChain.info
Statistics for pools and distribution of the found blocks between them.
Markets (markets)
Shows the current exchange rate of Bitcoin exchanges Bitstamp and BTC-E, who, after the ignominious death of Mt.Gox began to play a dominant role in determining the exchange rate of Bitcoin to the dollar. This section is only informative, and if you need more advanced features of the analysis of the price chart - it is better to use specialized resources.
MyWallet
Online wallet from Blockchain. The web interface works in all desktop and mobile browsers. For iOS and Android supports backup servers in the site to restore the wallet if you lose your mobile device. The backups of the encrypted wallet on your local computer or cloud storage such as Dropbox.
Access to the wallet is possible from a software API that allows you to automatically control the transaction to commit and automatic mass payments, etc.
API for developers

Connection accept payments in Bitcoin. Any site can begin to quickly start accepting payments safely, free and without any account on Blockchain.info. ideal for individual use and business.
API My wallet. Supports receiving, sending, creating and managing online wallets in the "My wallet".
JSON-RPC compatibility with Bitcoin Core. If you have an account in "My wallet" supported operation Blockchain.info as the server Bitcoind-RPC that allows sellers to work with MyWallet using Bitcoin Core.
Information about transactions and blocks. API allows to obtain information in JSON format about transactions and blocks in the Bitcoin system. Except JSON is possible to obtain information as text and using a WebSocket.
Market information. The API supports JSON download from the sections "Statistics" and Graphs, and receive Bitcoin exchange rate with major kryptomere.
Other sites of the General statistics and monitoring
BitcoinСhain
An information and analytical resource for monitoring the ecosystem of Bitcoin, developed as for ordinary lovers of statistics, and so for traders and miners.
The website provides:
Service Explorer blocks (block explorer). Here you can find a database of all ever used Bitcoin addresses, informative section with menulog, you can also watch the latest "lost" blocks (organy).
Stock trading schedule in real time and the ability to upload historical data. The site provides information from the major trading platforms: OKCoin, Kraken, Bitstamp, Coinbase, Bitfinex, etc.
Various technical indicators for traders and technical analysts (MA, EMA, BOLL, SAR), the ability to save analysis result in the form of a screenshot of the graph.
Interactive infographics for over 50 mining pools. You can learn the history of the performance of the pool since its start and activity for the current day, week, month; see terms of use: the scheme of the Commission, its size, format, pool - simple/solo/cloud etc.
The profit calculator mining. Fine-tuning the input data and clear indicators calculation can be useful for more accurate predictions of financial results.
Training section with information for beginners.
The website is actively growing and focused on the needs of users, the design is made in two themes: day and night. Responsive design preserves the functionality of not only PCs and laptops but also on mobile devices.
Blockexplorer.com
Classical Blockchain Explorer, nothing more. Provides information about transactions, addresses and Bitcoin block. Large enough search capabilities in the Blockchain, and if the payment for unknown reasons, "stuck", you can search by address, transaction ID or block number of the block.
Despite the complete absence of any design, the website is a powerful tool for fans to dig deeper in the blockchain. The site code is open and is located on GitHub that allows you to use its functionality in their own developments.
Bitcoinity.org
The website displays real-time basic information on the mining Bitcoin: the number of blocks, transactions, current, power (Hashrate) of the main pools as well as stock:
Course in fiatnym currencies on core Birzai
The rate of exchange points of Bitcoin
Trading volumes
Charts for different time periods.
There is a section for webmasters with lots of widgets statistics on Bitcoin. The site looks sparse, but it works quickly and provides lots of interesting information.
Sites for traders and miners
Coinmarketcap
Displays statistics for all crypto-currencies, which are at least somewhere traded. Directly in the table displayed:
The current market price in relation to Vietnam currencies or Bitcoin.
The total value of all issued coins (market capitalization)
The number of issued coins
Sales in the last day
Graph of changes in value.
In addition, clicking on the desired cryptocurrencies, you'll see its short description and main features and learn which markets and at what price it is trading.
There is a choice of currency rate which will be displayed in the list (the ruble is present) and several filters to sort the list – TOP 100, decrease/increase value, etc.
The site is suitable for a quick search of the current rate and capitalization of any cryptocurrency, useful to evaluate and compare the new forks.
Bitcoinwisdom.com
The most complete and easy to use site for traders of cryptocurrencies. In the absence of a professional trading terminal provides a good temporary replacement. On the website you can get current quotes on major bitcoin exchanges and sales and historical charts for 3-4 years. There is a comparison table of quotes for all major exchanges.
Unlike most similar sites on Bitcoinwisdom much more extensive graphics capabilities. Configurable display of price charts of Bitcoin and the major forks in multiple time frames from all major exchanges. Multiple skins, a large number of settings, indicators, the possibility of constructing lines, grids, forks and other tools used by fans of technical analysis.
In addition to information for traders, something that is provided for the miners – you can view statistics changing the complexity and capacity of the network and calculate the profitability of mining in the online calculator.
Bitcoinwatch and Bitcoincharts
Bitcoinwatch.com
Bitcoincharts.com
Two very similar resource. Created a few years ago and already a bit outdated, giving way to a younger and more advanced competitors. Show the basic statistics on the Bitcoin network:
The total number of coins in the system
The number of blocks
The complexity of including forecast for the near future
The capacity of the network divided by the main pools
Courses for the major currencies on exchanges and in exchange offices
Graphics
For developers there is an API for accessing the history and current courses, supported JSON and GET requests.
These sites yield such recognized leaders as Blockchain and Bitcoinwisdom, but they are present all basic stats, the sites are not overloaded with unnecessary functions and services. Perhaps for someone they are more comfortable.
Coinwarzm
This website is useful for those who like to risk and want to earn the mining and trade of fresh perspective and ready Althingi many times a day to jump on production of more profitable cryptocurrencies. On Coinwarz you will find a comfortable custom table for a comparison of the profitability of mining a huge number of pre-forked instances of Bitcoin on various algorithms. There you can quickly assess the change and the complexity of forks for the last few days. Information on the website is not always completely reliable, as the complexity and the forks of the quotes can change several times every minute, but for a General understanding and quick assessment of the situation it will be very useful.
Comparative tables for miners
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Comparison_of_mining_pools
Comparison of mining pools - the table of comparison pools for joint mining.
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_Hardware_Comparison
Mining hardware comparison - chart comparing the speed of various devices(video cards, processors, FPGA devices, etc.) for mining.
Highly specialized resources
In addition to generic sites that present all the necessary information about the Bitcoin network, there are more narrowly focused, which show details of the individual segments of statistics. They are formed and supported usually by Amateurs, so it is very simple and almost never develop. For some users these specialised services may be interesting.
Blockorigin
The website displays detailed information about Bitcoin blocks. The following information is available:
The current list of units with links to the generating pool.
Diagram of distribution of blocks among miners
The list of the largest pools.
Resource copes with its functions, but the inability to work with bloccano difficult to find the right information.
bitcoin.sipa.be
A site with multiple charts with technical information that may be useful for miners and just enthusiasts who are familiar with the cryptocurrency. Graphs show the current complexity and power of the Bitcoin network in various ways, from its creation to the current moment. Statistics are rather specific and may be of interest except for a quick glance. For the professional analyst of this website is not of interest, but for its narrow segment performed well.
Bitcoinclock
Simple but fun toy. Stylized clock counter displays the current number of blocks and since the last change of the complexity. The hour hand traverses one round every 210000 blocks, i.e. reflects the fall awards two times when it reaches 12, occurs about once in 4 years. The minute hand passes one round once every 2016 blocks, i.e., displays the time of change of difficulty when it reaches 12, occurs about once in 2 weeks. The second hand runs every 144 blocks, i.e., approximately every 24 hours.
A good example of a beautiful, but absolutely useless from a practical point of view of the instrument. The change of difficulty and reward per block is much simpler and more informative to look at the text.
A brief summary
For daily network monitoring on a large set of parameters, the absolute leader will be Blockchain.info. It has everything you need to know for both novice and experienced bitminer. Also interesting BitcoinChain - first of all, its versatility. But this project is just beginning its development.
For traders and miners working with Bitcoin and major Althingi most convenient bitcoinwisdom.com or bitcoincharts.com and those who catches a lucky young fork handy Coinmarketcap and Coinwarz.
Of course, we talked only about the most known resources, as the websites on cryptocurrency appear and disappear in tens or hundreds. And if the information that give these sites seems not enough – you will definitely find on the Internet that you like more. And those who are not looking for the easy way – create your own, and who knows, maybe in a few years they will be in the tops of the articles.
