Some of you may not be aware, but Tezos just got a little cooler. Literally. Tez.cool is the cooler new version of xtzchad.xyz, same spirit, but with a slicker look, smoother flow, and a few fresh tricks up its sleeve.
It’s the kind of site that doesn’t take itself too seriously. One moment you’re comparing bakers and checking wallet flows, the next you’re posting dancing cat GIFs in a trollbox. It’s part toolbox, part toy box, and honestly, that’s what makes it fun. Let’s get a better look at it.
What is Tez.cool? #

At its core, tez.cool is a one-stop hub for Tezos tools, the kind of place where you can do the serious stuff (like staking and wallet analysis) right alongside the fun stuff (like visual maps, chats, and soothing music).
It started life as xtzchad.xyz, a quirky collection of tools created by long-time community builder DoctorChad, and has now leveled up into something sleeker and more accessible. The facelift isn’t just about looks, though: navigation is smoother, the toolkit is expanding, and the homepage even greets you with live analytics charts that track things like staking growth, supply burns, and DeFi adoption.
It’s the same tools you may already know and love, now polished up and ready to reach a wider crowd. Think of it as xtzchad.xyz is putting on its coolest outfit and stepping out for a bigger stage. But, if you’re not familiar at all, don’t worry, we’re about to walk through each of the tools so you can see exactly what makes tez.cool worth exploring.
Your Cool Tez Toolkit: #
TezStake #

Staking can feel like a maze, but TezStake makes it simple. It gives you a clean overview of bakers, their fees, and how much room they have left for new stakers, so you don’t have to dig through endless lists. You can even connect your wallet and get started right there. And, don’t forget it’s Staketember so let’s get staking!
The Eye of Chad #

Ever wanted to follow the flow of tez across wallets? The Eye of Chad turns that into a colorful, interactive diagram where you can track inflows, outflows, and connections between addresses. It makes on-chain sleuthing both visual and fun, a much better way than scanning raw explorer data. Perfect for anyone curious about where the tez is moving.
TezWhales #

Whales can make waves, and TezWhales helps you spot them. The tool highlights large Tezos holders and their latest movements, giving you a clear picture of what the “big fish” are up to. Whether you’re studying supply dynamics or just love whale-watching, this is the place to keep an eye on the deep end of the pool.
TezCalm #

Sometimes you just want to stake and chill. TezCalm is a soothing page that shows the live Tezos staking ratio while playing relaxing music over smooth visuals. It turns a simple number into something oddly calming, like a meditation on chain security. Proof that blockchain can be zen when it wants to be. Be one with the power of Staketember.
ChadMap #

The “Chad Club” comes alive in ChadMap: a playful bubble map showing all accounts staking 20,000+ tez. Each bubble bounces and floats across the screen, turning raw staking data into something lively and interactive. Try spotting your own bubble in the mix, it’s harder than it looks, but way more fun than a spreadsheet.
TezTrollbox #

This is where the Tezos community lets loose. TezTrollbox is a live chat window built right into the site, perfect for quick banter, inside jokes, or dropping the occasional dancing cat GIF. To post, you’ll need to connect your wallet, but you can choose whether to appear under your address or keep it anonymous. It’s lighthearted, chaotic, and a nice reminder that tools don’t always have to be all business.
NFTChat #

NFTChat isn’t your typical chatbox, it’s an on-chain messenger that lets you send a message directly to another wallet in the form of an NFT. Bakers can use it to reach out to anonymous delegators, artists can connect with collectors, and collectors can reply just as easily. Since the messages live on-chain, they’re permanent and public, so while it’s a clever way to bridge communication, don’t expect private DMs here. It’s a fun experiment in turning NFTs into a messaging system.
Some sites give you tools, others give you data, tez.cool throws in a little fun on top. It’s practical where you need it and quirky where you don’t expect it, making the Tezos experience a lot more interactive. Staking made simple, wallet flows turned visual, whales on display, trollbox banter, and even a place to relax with blockchain beats.
But it’s not just fun. The homepage also doubles as a data resource, with live charts and analytics that give you a clear snapshot of the network’s health and growth. From staking ratios to DeFi adoption, it’s a quick pulse check on Tezos at any moment.
The site has had its glow-up, but it’s still evolving. Feedback and fresh ideas from the community will shape what comes next, so every click, comment, and suggestion helps it grow.
So go be a Chad, click around, break things (not really), and see what kind of fun you can stir up. And if you’ve got ideas to make it even cooler, we’re all ears.
