I could help with getting your block explorer setup. You can also request an explorer at https://altexplorer.co/
Thank you very much for your reply Fluvirus.
Didn't know about altexplorer, thanks for the tip.
Actually what I'm looking for is really my own block explorer that would be "uploaded" (not sure this would be the correct word to use) on the altcoin website (for CSS matters), with the altcoin domain name (just as those explorers found on google : https://explorer.snowgem.org/ / http://explorer.steneum.com/)
I honestly have no clue on how this should work, as the process is still a bit unclear to me.
I know there is a settings.json file to be edited, especially the address for which I mentioned 127.0.0.1:3001. This allowed me to watch the explorer on my local machine (actually something went wrong overnight as I cannot connect anymore to 127.0.0.1:3001, but that's a different issue that I will try to solve...)
So any suggestion / general remarks on how to achieve the task would be much appreciated ! Feel free to PM me if you prefer.
Thanks again, Phil

Documentation for building an online block explorer ?

Hello,
I would like to build and share a block explorer for an existing altcoin.
I've already been able to build a local explorer on Ubuntu 16.04 using Iquidus (https://github.com/iquidus/explorer), everything is working fine, including crontab.
Now I'm looking for some documentation on how to "share" this block explorer. The altcoin has its own website, I would like to include an explorer to it. Are you aware of any documentation/tutorial that would help me going through the process ? I'm not very familiar with VPS, is this where I should build the daemon and then the explorer ?
Many thanks in advance for the help !
Phil

Re: [ANN][CASH] Crypto CASH | Proof of Stake & COIN CONTROL | On Cryptsy | 0 PREMINE
Appreciate your offer of coins but it's not necessary. I do these things as a hobby and for the learning experience.
To me, It feels incorrect to give POS blocks a higher priority over POW and I wonder why that decision was made. POW blocks have a real cost involved whereas POS cost is almost nothing. Wouldn't it be more realistic to have POS and POW given the same priority? Each have their respective difficulty that controls their generation rate. Am I missing something else to consider?
I see what you mean, but how would you then guarantee that the interests would be paid ? As it seems to be the number 1 thing to do IMO. Is there a coin that pays interests without POS ? Through POW ? (a POW transaction that would check what interests need to be paid and proceed to the payments ?)

Both will always follow the same trend... I doubt Bitcoin will ever become a direct payment method, but it can be a valuable commodity.
After the halving, only half as much new bitcoins are generated than before. With the assumption that the demand stays stable, the price should rise in the near future. Mabe this effect is already included in the price rise before halving, but sooner or later I expect it to be visible in the charts.
Right. Everything known in advance is included in the price.

Bitcoin will never be a direct payment method, it will be a third-party guarantee or a speculative commodity
