I've just received word that the current explorer will be phased out by Dreamwatcher on September 1st.
He will still offer a block explorer service but it will be $25/month. We will need to either pay a new monthly fee or find some other alternative.

I wanted to add that CCE is being updated to version 3.5, which offers better aesthetics and more features.
Take a look at the updated homepage and CCE 3.5 explorers at: www.cryptocoinexplorer.com (http://www.cryptocoinexplorer.com)
Some direct links to updated explorers:

Plus more ..
There are more features to be added to the CCE 3.5 build, including market tickers, graphs, the ability to self-identify addresses on the chain and more..

I am not aware of any alternative GLD block explorers.

Hi everyone I will pay for a year subscription for the block explorer for the community. I am on holidays right now for about 2 weeks traveling down Oregon and California coast to LA then over to Las Vegas. I will have to pay when I make it home so as long as someone can cover the first month we should be good for a while. :)

those updated explorers look pretty cool. I think ours will look awesome with the new goldcoin logo.

Just thought I'd post what was mentioned on GoldCoin Talk FaceBook by Amir Eslampanah... I'll set one up for us this sunday/monday/tuesday. No biggie.

Your promise is good enough for me, just shoot me an e-mail when you are back from vacation.
I will begin work on updating the Goldcoin explorer.
This change in the way CCE works has been coming for awhile, and honestly I did not like the idea of taking the Goldcoin explorer down, but the need to get off "donation" base funding had to be done.
What you are getting for sponsorship is an explorer written and maintained by somebody with years of experience with block explorers, not just an ABE clone thrown up on a server. CCE does not use ABE but an in house explorer software. The server setup is also specifically designed around the type of traffic an explorer can generate. Before I started paring down the dead chains, CCE was over 1.5 million hits a week.
I will use the resources available now to design the face of the explorer. I realize there are changes coming and I will be glad to customize as the community sees fit in the future.

I have a temporary version up right now as I am not happy with the aesthetics .
I think the best background would be the picture of the Goldcoin sphere being held up above the world ....sans the hand.;
I have tried cropping, but the resolution gets too low and it becomes pixelated. If somebody could get that picture without the hand at full resolution, I think that would be the best background.

The Goldcoin Explorer has been updated to the latest version of CCE 3.5.
Added Features:
Market Ticker is now active. Removed the marquee. Market information updates every time the database updates.
Address owner claim system:
One can now claim ownership of an address on the Goldcoin chain if it has been seen on the network. For now the owner information shows up in the top 1000 balances. Future plans include making that information available if one hovers any address in the explorer.
To claim an address, one needs to use the message signing system in the Goldcoin client. Complete instructions can been seen on the address claim page:

Could you please explain what is the purpose of claiming an address. This is still new to me and others and we are trying to learn. Thanks.

In one word:
Vanity ;)
Bragging rights on the rich list.
There are other reasons a business may want to associate a certain address with their business, even use the rich list as a sort of advertisement. Some people/groups/business/charities may want to use it for transparency so people can easily find the balances for the addresses they are using.
I am sure there are many more reasons, but these are just a few off the top of my head.

Thank you. I understand now and can see it having its benefits.

I just made it home last night and this morning I just sent a payment for the block explorer for one year.

Awesome! You are the man!! 8)

Thank you dustint, I think we should be raising funds for these type of things to spread the cost.
If we want GoldCoin to grow it's going to the whole community.
Thanks again.
