Announcing the @steemmonsters Block Explorer!

What is Hive account@steemmonsters?

The Hive account@steemmonsters blockchain collectible card game was recently announced to overwhelming enthusiasm and an outpouring of support from the Steem community. In short, this is is a card game, where cards are generated and stored in the blockchain that looks much like Magic the Gathering with a dash of CrytoKitties. I know, read the intro to get the full story.

Today they are only pre-selling packs but soon we will be able to play the game with each other on the blockchain!

Beyond that, if you're familiar with real world CCGs, each card has tangible value and that applies here. In time, the cards you hold may become more rare and therefore more valuable.

It is projects like this built on the Steem blockchain that will ultimately add value for the token and drive our long term success. I'm fully behind this project and can't wait to see it succeed even further!

Masssive Hive account@steemmonsters Support

You may have noticed that Hive account@berniesanders is a huge fan of Hive account@steemmonsters and has been posting about it a quite a bit lately.

Earlier today he posted an offer to the community which is as follows:

For those who have asked to see my cards, I will not be showing them. Consider this a challenge for someone to create a steemmonsters explorer where we can analyze each others decks. I will give 250 packs to the first person that can achieve this.

I love a good challenge, so I sat down and got to work.

The Hive account@steemmonsters Block Explorer

Since you probably just scrolled down to look for this anyway, here's the URL:

Steemmonsters Block Explorer

You can enter your Steem username with or without the @ in front and you'll see all of your Hive account@steemmonsters cards like this.

I'm showing each card, the count of your duplicates of this card, and the unique uid for each card you hold.

I literally banged this out this afternoon so there's gotta be a few bugs in there! And I used a bit of a workaround in this implementation to get this proof of concept up quickly, but I'm going to build this out properly and push all of the custom_json operations to a database so I can easily search and join everything, especially once we start actually playing.

What's Next?

I'm serious, I have no idea but I can't wait to find out! We haven't even started playing yet and that will open up a whole new universe here I'm sure.

Regardless of the future, if you can think of anything cool to add right now let me know. And of course, follow up with any bugs you run into as well.
