Insight is an open-source Dash blockchain explorer that will be used for writing web wallets and other apps that need more advanced blockchain queries.

It provides users with a convenient way to read data from the Dash network so they can build their own services with it.

Seitz further explained that this planned update will affect all users, as the API change from Abe to Insight will create differences in the underlying software.

Dash recommends users upgrade their application to Insight API to ensure future compatibility.
