- Pull the transfer history of an NFT in a single API call
Blockchain Explorer
Like the NFT Explorer, this industry-first, open-source Ethereum Blockchain Data Explorer pulls all of the blockchain data from Astra DB and gives the user a real-time view of the latest blocks that have been mined, along with the latest Ethereum transactions.
- Pull historical gas price by block number
- Pull the # of ERC20 transfers by block number

Offering
Astra DB is synced instantly when new blocks are mined. Pay standard Astra DB pricing.
