Dash Insight REST API

Open-source REST and WebSocket API for querying the Dash Core (layer 1) blockchain. Provides endpoints for blocks (by hash or height), raw blocks, transactions (by txid), raw transactions, addresses (balance, total received/sent, UTXOs, transaction history), multi-address UTXO and transaction queries, transaction broadcast (standard and InstantSend), Dash governance objects (sporks, budget proposals, masternode votes), and network status. Real-time events (new blocks, new transactions, InstantSend locks) are streamed over socket.io WebSockets.
