Reading the list of Ethereum blocks

An Ethereum block is proposed by one validator in a 12-second slot and holds the transactions it chose to include, up to the gas limit. It carries a base fee that is burnt, a tip for the proposer, and a parent hash that links it to the block before. Blocks also list validator withdrawals. After about two epochs the block is finalized.

The newest block is at the top and the list moves back in time as you page down. The age column counts from now, the transaction count says how busy the block was, and the fee columns show what its senders paid. Open any row for the transactions inside it. Every block refers to the one before it by its hash, which is how the list forms a single chain, and the numbers rise by one with each new entry unless one was skipped or the backend keeps only a sample of a very fast chain.

The data is read live from public Ethereum nodes and indexers. Very recent blocks can still be replaced on a chain that has not finalized them yet, so use an older row when you need something that will not change. The next page button goes further back in time, and the search box in the header finds any block by its number or hash.
