Introduction

Sonde is a block explorer for the XRP Ledger. It lets you look up any account, transaction, token, or NFT on the network in real time — no account or API key required.

What you can do

  • ▸Search anything — paste an address, transaction hash, CTID, NFT ID, or destination tag to jump directly to its page.
  • ▸Explore accounts — see balances, trust lines, transaction history, NFT collections, AMM positions, open offers, and account settings.
  • ▸Read transactions — full detail with balance changes, affected ledger nodes, signing key info, and raw JSON.
  • ▸Browse tokens and NFTs — live prices, OHLC charts, marketplace volume rankings, and collection galleries.
  • ▸Track your portfolio — connect your Xaman wallet to see your holdings, PnL, DeFi positions, and activity history.

Live data

Sonde connects directly to XRPL nodes via WebSocket. The dashboard shows live ledger closes, network fees, transaction counts, and XRP price — all updating in real time without polling.

Volume methodology

Sonde counts trade volume only. NFT volume includes only matched buy/sell offers (NFTokenAcceptOffer), not mints or burns. Token volume includes only crossed offers and AMM swaps, not trust line operations. This gives you a more accurate picture of actual market activity than explorers that inflate numbers with non-trade events.
