We've just updated the #BlockstreamExplorer to support unblinding @Liquid_BTC transactions. Use this feature to quickly & easily unblind your transaction for 3rd party mediators. Unblinding also occurs client-side, so no data is sent to our servers. 🌊⛓️🔍 https://blockstream.com/2021/02/03/en-reveal-confidential-transactions-with-blockstream-explorer/
