**PranaScan** is the block explorer for the PRANA chain, published at pranascan.soapbox.community. It is a Blockscout deployment.

## Function

The explorer indexes blocks, transactions, addresses and contracts, and exposes a public API alongside its web interface.

## Note on block rewards

PRANA pays its block reward as a coinbase issuance rather than as a transaction. A block's transaction list will therefore not show the reward, and a reader inspecting blocks may incorrectly conclude that no reward is paid. The reward can be confirmed by reading a miner's balance across successive blocks through the chain's RPC.
