The homepage shows four stat cards above a live Latest Transactions feed:
| Card | What it shows |
|---|---|
Network (GH/s) | Hashrate (always - on a pure PoS chain) |
Difficulty | Two lines: POW: x.xxx and POS: x.xxx |
Coin Supply (POT) | Fixed at 420,000,000 |
BTC Price | Market feed (may read 0.00000000 BTC until wired) |
The footer shows current block height and peer count, updated live.

}PotCoin is a transparent PoS chain — getinfo returns the standard Iquidus fields (version, blocks, connections, difficulty, moneysupply). No privacy flags; every transaction is visible on-chain.
Full API endpoint reference
All endpoints return JSON unless noted. The explorer is Iquidus v1.7.4 — these match the upstream Iquidus API.
| Endpoint | Returns |
|---|---|
/api/getinfo | Node state: version, blocks, connections, difficulty, moneysupply |
/api/getblockcount | Current chain height (number) |
/api/getdifficulty | PoW + PoS difficulty |
/api/getblockhash?index=N | Block hash for height N |
/api/getblock?hash=X | Full block JSON |
/api/getrawtransaction?txid=X&decrypt=1 | Decoded transaction |
/api/getaddress/<addr> | Raw RPC address view |
/api/getbalance/<addr> | Balance via RPC |
/api/gettx/<txid> | Raw RPC transaction detail |
/ext/getmoneysupply | Plain-text supply |
/ext/getdistribution | Wealth distribution buckets |
/ext/getlasttxs/<count> | Recent tx feed |
/ext/getaddresstx/<addr> | Address transaction history |
/api/getnetworkhashps returns "Method not found" because pure-PoS chains have no hashrate after LAST_POW_BLOCK = 500.
