Polygon PoS Chain
Polygon (POL) is a Layer 2 scaling solution for Ethereum featuring fast, low-cost transactions secured by a proof-of-stake validator set.
The Polygon blockchain explorer gives you instant access to every block produced on the Polygon (POL/MATIC) network. Whether you need to confirm a payment, audit a smart contract deployment, or simply watch the chain grow in real time, this tool surfaces the raw on-chain data you need.
A blockchain explorer is a search engine for distributed ledger data. Instead of crawling web pages, it indexes every block, transaction, address, and token event recorded on the Polygon network. The Polygon blockchain explorer at PolygonScanner.org pulls this data directly from Polygon nodes and presents it in a human-readable interface.
Search any block number or block hash to retrieve producer details, timestamp, gas used, and the full list of included transactions. Navigate forward and backward through the chain to trace the history of any on-chain event.
Enter a block number in the search bar at the top of the page, or click any block from the live feed on the home screen. The block detail view shows the miner or validator address, total gas consumed, the base fee per gas, and every transaction contained in that block.

Polygon (POL) is a Layer 2 scaling solution for Ethereum featuring fast, low-cost transactions secured by a proof-of-stake validator set.
POL (formerly MATIC) is used to pay gas fees, stake with validators, and participate in on-chain governance on the Polygon network.
Polygon is fully EVM-compatible, meaning any Ethereum smart contract or dApp can be deployed on Polygon with minimal code changes.
