Ping Dashboard

Ping Dashboard is not only an explorer but also a wallet and more ... 🛠

This is a repository of deployment of https://ping.pub .

Are you interested in listing your blockchain on Ping Dashboard?

Initially, Ping Dashboard offers free listing for the first 100 blockchains. However, starting from the 101st blockchain, there will be associated fees.

Why does Ping Dashboard rely on official/trusted third-party public LCD/RPC servers?

There are two primary reasons for this choice:

• Trust: In a decentralized system, it is crucial to avoid relying solely on a single entity. By utilizing official/trusted third-party public LCD/RPC servers, Ping Dashboard ensures that the data is sourced from a network of trusted participants.
• Limited Resources: As Ping Dashboard plans to list hundreds of Cosmos-based blockchains in the future, it is impractical for the Ping team to operate validators or full nodes for all of them. Leveraging trusted third-party servers allows for more efficient resource allocation.

Directory Layout

We accept all blockchains which have 10+ independent validators.

• chain_name the name to identify the chain on ping.pub, would be better to use the same one as registry
• api the rest api endpoint.(make sure that CORS is enabled: Allow-Control-Allow-Origin: *)
• rpc the rpc endpoint, make sure that the port is added. rpc endpoint is only used for state sync. it's optional.
• assets Native Assets on blockchain.

Endpoint providers will be listed in the "Popular" tab of the staking.

Token Unit conversion

We have two methods to load token metadata for token unit conversion:

Loading from a REST endpoint (recommended).

you can define the metadata in the bank -> metadata section of the blockchain's genesis file. if you don't define, the [] will return.

{
  "name": "atom",
  "description": "The native staking token of the Cosmos Hub.",
  "denom_units": [
    {
      "denom": "uatom",
      "exponent": 0,
      "aliases": [
        "microatom"
      ],
    },
    {
      "denom": "matom",
      "exponent": 3,
      "aliases": [
        "milliatom"
      ]
    },
    {
      "denom": "atom",
      "exponent": 6,
    }
  ],
  "base": "uatom",
  "display": "atom",
}
