Block Explorer for Ethereum
Ethernal is a hosted block explorer for Ethereum mainnet that connects to your RPC endpoint and provides real-time transaction decoding, contract verification, call traces, and token tracking. Deploy a full-featured, whitelabel explorer for your Ethereum infrastructure in under 5 minutes.
Full Transaction Decoding with Call Traces
Every transaction on Ethereum decoded against verified ABIs: function names, parameters, emitted events, and the complete internal call tree. Ethernal reconstructs the full execution trace (CALL, DELEGATECALL, STATICCALL) so you can see exactly how a transaction flowed through multiple contracts, including revert reasons at every level.
Contract Verification and Interaction
Verify Solidity source code, then read and write contract state directly from your explorer. Ethernal supports all compiler versions, multi-file verification, and proxy contracts (EIP-1967, EIP-1822). Your team and users get a clean interface to interact with any verified contract without writing a single line of code.
Explorer Features
How to Set Up an Ethereum Block Explorer
Create a workspace
Sign up at app.tryethernal.com and create a new workspace. Select "Public Explorer" as the type.
Connect your Ethereum RPC
Paste your Ethereum RPC endpoint from any provider (Alchemy, Infura, QuickNode, or your own node). Ethernal starts syncing blocks immediately.
Set your native token
Configure ETH as the native token. Ethernal will display gas costs, balances, and value transfers in ETH throughout the UI.
Go live
Point your custom domain (e.g. explorer.example.com) to your Ethernal workspace. Your Ethereum explorer is live with full transaction decoding, contract verification, and token tracking.
Ethereum Explorer Options Compared
Teams running Ethereum infrastructure typically choose between Etherscan (the public explorer), Blockscout (open-source self-hosted), or Ethernal (hosted with whitelabel and instant setup).
Pricing for Ethereum Explorers
Start free with the Starter plan (ad-supported, includes contract verification, token tracking, and unlimited transactions). For custom domains and branding, the Team plan starts at $150/month. Full whitelabel with custom branding, status page, and 5M transactions included is available on the App Chain plan at $500/month.

Why would I need my own Ethereum explorer when Etherscan exists?
Etherscan is a shared, public explorer. If you run Ethereum infrastructure (a private network, a fork, or an enterprise deployment), you need an explorer you control: your own domain, your own branding, no third-party ads, and the ability to verify contracts without going through Etherscan's queue.
Can Ethernal index Ethereum mainnet from genesis?
Ethernal syncs from the block your workspace starts on and indexes forward in real time. For historical data, you can configure a start block. Most teams start from a recent block relevant to their contracts rather than from genesis.
Does Ethernal support EIP-4844 blobs on Ethereum?
Blob support is available for L2 chains posting data to Ethereum. For Ethereum mainnet explorers, Ethernal focuses on transaction decoding, contract verification, call traces, and token tracking.
Can I use Ethernal for an Ethereum fork or private network?
Yes. Ethernal works with any EVM-compatible chain. Point it at your fork's RPC endpoint and it will index blocks, decode transactions, and let you verify contracts, regardless of whether it is a public or private network.
What RPC providers work with Ethernal for Ethereum?
Any standard Ethereum JSON-RPC endpoint works: Alchemy, Infura, QuickNode, Chainstack, Ankr, or your own Geth/Nethermind/Erigon node. Ethernal uses standard RPC methods for block syncing, trace retrieval, and state queries.
