The Chainscanner is offered as an AppChain-as-a-Service infrastructure, an end-to-end engineering solution that enables Web3 developers to easily build custom blockchains uniquely suited to their app-specific applications.
Ankr, one of the blockchain industry’s top Web3 infrastructure service providers has announced the launch of Chainscanner, it’s an all-in-one explorer for App-Specific (AppChains) blockchains. As contained in a press release shared with Coinspeaker, the Chainscanner tool is designed to help both developers and Web3.0 users explore and analyze detailed data on their AppChains.
With the Web3 world advancing at a very sporadic rate, innovators are now developing new solutions that can further break the barriers to the mass adoption of the technology across the board. With developers spending a good amount of time, resources, and manpower to develop products that perform the same functions as the Ankr Chainscanner, and with its launch, this strain can be taken off the developer’s shoulders.
The Chainscanner tool is notably useful for both developers and users as it presents an easy-to-use interface that enables smooth interaction with AppChains built on protocols like BNB Chain, Avalanche, and Polygon amongst others. With the Chainscanner tool ready to use for all, developers can focus on additional features that can benefit their ecosystem users some more.
“Chainscanner is an essential new building block for AppChains that greatly improves user experience with tools made to let users instantly search for data, stake tokens, vote on governance proposals, get development resources, apply to become a validator, and learn everything about different chains. This is how we make decentralized apps as easy to use and as high performance as the centralized apps we’re used to interacting with every day,” said Kev Silk, Product Manager for Ankr AppChains.

The Ankr Chainscanner Advantage
There are many gaps that need to be bridged in today’s blockchain ecosystem, and the main contributors to the evolution of the industry are those floating products that are bridging these gaps one step at a time.
With the Ankr Chainscanner, developers are empowered to build their own custom applications on Sidechain frameworks like Polygon Edge, Avalanche Subnets, and the BNB Chain’s BAS. This specific solution can help developers to solve two focal problems including slow transaction speeds users in Web3 experience when conducting transactions, and high transaction or gas fees.
The AppChain tool also grants developers the kinds of flexibility they need including the ability to be able to choose their own preferred programming languages, consensus mechanisms, and development frameworks. Additionally, the time and resources to achieve optimal security can also be bypassed as AppChain comes with a robust security infrastructure that negates the need for additional smart contracts and asset bridges.
The Chainscanner tool is multi-faceted and its usage is as diverse for developers adopting its features as well as it is highly functional for users seeking information on their desired chain bordering on staking, and usage statistics amongst others.
In all, the Ankr Chainscanner offers a cheaper alternative than the majority of explorer and oracle services currently available in the industry.
