Every blockchain transaction is public. So why do many people not read them?

Quick thought for this community: blockchain is arguably the most transparent financial system ever built, every transaction, every wallet, is fully public, forever. And yet almost nobody outside of crypto natives can look at a transaction hash and actually tell you what happened.

That gap, data that's public but not legible, is what we've been calling the transparency paradox, and it's the exact problem we built Hashtory to solve: paste a wallet address or transaction hash, get a plain-English explanation of what actually happened, no crypto background required. We've developed other features to help all crypto users, but especially less sophisticated ones, interact with blockchain networks in plain English.

We're live on Product Hunt today. I'm curious how this community handles it when you're not a blockchain analyst but need to understand a wallet or transaction block explorer and a lot of squinting? A tool you already reach for? Would love to hear how others deal with this, or if it's not actually a problem for you.
