[UPDATE] XCSCAN — Crosschain Explorer for Polkadot & Kusama

,

xcscan.io is a purpose-built explorer for crosschain activity on Polkadot and Kusama. It is open-source and focused entirely on cross-consensus messaging, making XCM’s programmable, multi-step nature accessible through clear visualizations and humanized data.

XCM is more than basic message passing. It is a complex system of programmable crosschain instructions and interactions. Many existing explorers treat crosschain activity as simple transfers. XCSCAN is built to handle the full scope and richness of XCM’s multi-chain workflows as they evolve and become more complex.

XCSCAN tracks complete transfer paths, including all intermediates, not just source and destination. It updates in real time and currently supports 20+ chains across the Polkadot and Kusama ecosystems.

You can search by transaction hash (from extrinsics or EVM calls) or by address, whether Ethereum format or any SS58 prefix.

Built for working with XCM, not adapted to it.

Open-source. Community feedback and suggestions welcome.

Update: Native XCM Swaps and Traps

XCSCAN now visualizes native XCM swaps and traps :glowing_star:

  • XCM swaps are direct cross-chain asset exchanges performed through XCM, without requiring to sign and execute multiple extrinsics.
  • XCM traps show assets that have been trapped during a cross-chain operation, providing transparency into where tokens are stuck.

The screenshots below show a list of journeys and a detailed multi-leg view (3 legs) of a swap.

Supports multiple swaps and displays the actual amounts swapped.
