How does this work?

This tool lets you explore Mina blockchain graphs interactively by fetching and visualizing account transactions as nodes and links.

• LIMIT: Max number of transactions to fetch per key (after the first).
• FIRST ITERATION LIMIT: Max transactions for the root key.
• RECURSION DEPTH: How many levels of linked accounts to explore.
• START KEY: The public key where exploration begins.
• API TOKEN: Your Minataur API authorization token.
• LAYOUT PARAMETERS: Adjust the layout algorithm (iterations, gravity, scale, etc.)
• EXPORT/IMPORT: Save or load graph JSON, export image.
• LEGEND: Filter graph edges by transaction type.
• SEARCH: Look up a node by label or key fragment.

⚠️ Important note on graph complexity

The size of the graph grows exponentially based on the combination of:

• FIRST ITERATION LIMIT (F): Number of transactions fetched for the root key.
• LIMIT (L): Max transactions per linked account.
• DEPTH (D): How many recursive levels of linked accounts are explored.

Estimated number of nodes (accounts):
N ≈ 1 + F × (LD – 1) / (L – 1)

This means the graph can reach tens of thousands of nodes if values are too high.
It can impact memory, loading time, layout performance, and browser responsiveness.

For a smooth experience, try values like:

• Safe defaults: F = 100, L = 20, D = 2
• Deeper graph (heavy): F = 200, L = 30, D = 3+
• Shallow & fast: F = 50, L = 10, D = 1

🔑 How to get your API Token

This app needs an API token to fetch transactions from the selected blockchain.
Here's how to get a token depending on the blockchain you're using:

🪶 Mina (Minataur)

No token required during the trial period.
However, once the trial period is over, for authenticated requests, you'll need a minataur token you can obtain by following these steps :

1. Head over Minataur.net
2. Follow the instructions to receive your token by email
3. Copy your Minataur API token

You can also send the transaction directly through Mina Graph Explorer by entering the email address where you want to receive your token, and using Auro Wallet to send 1 MINA to the Minataur API service. Mina Graph Explorer (and myself) does not take any commission on this transaction ! The transaction is as safe as it can be.
