Introduction

What can I do with the multiexplorer API? The Multiexplorer API can be used to create a cryptocurrency wallet that is both lightweight (meaning it doesn not use large amounts of bandwidth, memory and hard drive space) and decentralized. Doesn't building a wallet that depends on an expernal service make it centralized? Only if that wallet was dependent on that one service. If that wallet cross-checked all API calls through other APIs, then decentralization is maintained. Can I run my own multiexplorer API? Yes, all the software that runs the multiexplorer API is open source and available on Github. Who decides which services get used here? The operators of multiexplorer.com decide which services get used here. If you run your own instance of multiexplorer, you can disable certain services and define your own set.

service_id parameter. This parameter can be used to call a single survice, or it can be used to enable various "fetching modes". fallback to denote you want to use the first working service. Each currency has an ordered list of defined services. Using this mode guarantees a result (from somewhere) will always be returned. This service can be thought as being "high availability".

This service can be thought as being "high availability". paranoidN to enable paranoid mode. This will call N services, and verify that they all return the same data. If any service returns a different value, the call will indicate this. In the case of a paranoid mode failure, the underlying cryptocurrency network may be forked.

to enable paranoid mode. This will call services, and verify that they all return the same data. If any service returns a different value, the call will indicate this. In the case of a paranoid mode failure, the underlying cryptocurrency network may be forked. averageN can be used to calculate the average of N service calls. This mode is helpful for determining the optimal transaction fee and current price. This mode does not apply to many blockchain operations since all services return the exact same data.

can be used to calculate the average of service calls. This mode is helpful for determining the optimal transaction fee and current price. This mode does not apply to many blockchain operations since all services return the exact same data. privateN can be used to on services that take multiple addresses. One service will be used for each addresses passed in. This mode is applicable to `address_balance`, `unpent_outputs` and `historical_transactions`. All calls will be spread out over N number of seconds. The higher value of N passed throug, the higher level of privacy achieved. Max value for N is 30. Use a single blockexplorer API via multiexplorer as a pass-thtough. Service_id is a number cooresponding to the serivice in the table below.All API calls take a service_id parameter. This parameter can be used to call a single survice, or it can be used to enable various "fetching modes".
