A common reason people use [Solana explorers](https://www.helius.dev/blog/top-solana-block-explorers) is to look up Solana token details by entering the token's address, often called a "contract address" (CA) or, on Solana, more accurately, a [token mint account](https://www.helius.dev/docs/orb/explore-mint-addresses.md). Using [Orb](https://orbmarkets.io), traders can explore a token's price, trading volume, holders, circulating token supply, markets, liquidity, token metadata, authority, and access trading charts. In the below example, we'll look at the [Solana token page for \$ORE](https://orbmarkets.io/address/oreoU2P8bN6jkk3jbaiVxYnG1dCXcYxwhwyK9jSybcp/history): Address: (`oreoU2P8bN6jkk3jbaiVxYnG1dCXcYxwhwyK9jSybcp`) ## Solana Token Overview At the top of every token page, you see the most important metrics, including: * Token name, icon, and address * Website and links to social media * Total token supply and market cap * Verification status and links to trading charts * Token price, holder count, and trading volume ![Solana token page for \$ORE on the Orb block explorer](https://mintcdn.com/helius/GK_UEjIuMAXci0nx/images/orb/explore-tokens/look-up-a-solana-token-address-on-the-orb-block-explorer.jpg?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=GK_UEjIuMAXci0nx\&q=85\&s=8f90b213669d8f539830343277ce9448) Solan token page for \$ORE on the Orb block explorer. > [!TIP] > > **Token Logo Directory**: Download the official on-chain logos for 1000s of Solana tokens using Orb's [Token Logo Directory](https://orbmarkets.io/logos). ## Token Transaction History The **History** tab shows a list of the token's recent activity, including transaction types, summaries, execution time, programs invoked, and transaction signatures. ![Ore's real-time token transaction feed showing the most recent swaps, mints, and transfers](https://mintcdn.com/helius/GK_UEjIuMAXci0nx/images/orb/explore-tokens/solana-token-transaction-history-detail-page-orb-explorer.jpg?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=GK_UEjIuMAXci0nx\&q=85\&s=16e05c433b00321cf6d232de81019465) \$ORE’s real-time token transaction feed showing the most recent swaps, mints, and transfers. Selecting "Filters" opens a panel with options to filter by: * Status (e.g., success/fail) * Token (e.g., USDC) * Program (e.g., DFlow Aggregator v4) > [!TIP] > > You can also hide spam and sort results by oldest first to view a token's earliest transactions. ## Token Markets Click the **Markets** tab to view all liquidity pairs (e.g., ORE-SOL, ORE-USDC), trading venues (e.g., Orca, Meteora DLMM), and metrics including liquidity, 24-hour volume, total number of trades, and number of unique traders. ![Top markets and liquidity pools for Ore on Solana, including ORE-SOL and ORE-USDC](https://mintcdn.com/helius/GK_UEjIuMAXci0nx/images/orb/explore-tokens/solana-token-markets-data-on-the-orb-block-explorer.jpg?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=GK_UEjIuMAXci0nx\&q=85\&s=5a2c9e0a7e4aa7551035d4b6a94fbd70) Top markets and liquidity pools for \$ORE on Solana, including ORE-SOL and ORE-USDC. ## Token Holders Traders may want to verify that a token's supply isn't highly concentrated in a small number of holders. Clicking the **Holders** tab in Orb lets you quickly analyze the top wallets, their supply percentages, and value (denominated in US dollars). ![List of Ore's token holders, token counts, percentage, and value held](https://mintcdn.com/helius/GK_UEjIuMAXci0nx/images/orb/explore-tokens/solana-token-holder-details-page-on-the-orb-explorer.jpg?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=GK_UEjIuMAXci0nx\&q=85\&s=3208c8f3db9cb8e9be10bfdc347b7ceb) List of ORE’s token holders, token counts, percentage, and value held. ## Token Metadata To view or copy any Solana token's metadata, click the **Metadata** tab in Orb. The JSON view gives the token's key information, including links, descriptions, royalties, ownership details, and token info (e.g., ticker, supply, decimals, and mint authority). ![Ore's JSON token metadata, including files, descriptions, and links](https://mintcdn.com/helius/GK_UEjIuMAXci0nx/images/orb/explore-tokens/solana-token-metadata-json-on-the-orb-explorer.jpg?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=GK_UEjIuMAXci0nx\&q=85\&s=6b9f805a72caca1709288cc2d704c7ea) ORE's JSON token metadata, including files, descriptions, and links. ## Token Authority Authorities define the control and permissions (e.g., minting new tokens, freezing accounts, and modifying properties) of a token on Solana. Clicking the **Authority** tab we can see ORE's token authorities and implications. ![Solana token authority page showing Ore's authority, mint authority, token program, and total supply](https://mintcdn.com/helius/GK_UEjIuMAXci0nx/images/orb/explore-tokens/solana-token-update-authority-page-orb-blockchain-explorer.jpg?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=GK_UEjIuMAXci0nx\&q=85\&s=dc25934aaa1527df4ccc078b08b5940a) Token authority page showing ORE's authority, mint authority, token program, and total supply. ## Conclusion There are millions of tokens on Solana, with thousands of new launches every day. Learning how to review token authorities, holders, price, and metadata is a fundamental use case for Solana blockchain explorers like Orb. To get started, simply [search for a Solana token](https://orbmarkets.io/) by name or address on Orb.
