🚨 24 HOURS REMAINING!
Last call to support
@Blockscout via
@Giveth before the round closes! ⏳
We are saving the best for last with our final pitch on Blockscout’s indispensable impact on Ethereum security 🛡️🥁
────────────────────────
Ethereum's security depends on more than a functioning consensus layer.
It depends on the ability of any participant to verify on-chain activity for themselves.
💡 Block explorers are what make that verification possible.
➜ Everyday users verify that their deposits, withdrawals, and purchases actually settled on-chain as expected.
➜ Smart contract auditors ensure deployed bytecode aligns with audited source code.
➜ Security researchers trace exploit patterns and monitor fund movements in real-time.
➜ Compliance teams verify counterparty integrity and institutional fund flows.
➜ Institutions & custodians independently confirm settlement to reconcile internal records.
➜ DAO members audit treasury allocations to ensure they match governance outcomes.
────────────────────────
BUT not all explorers serve this role equally.
When a single closed-source explorer becomes the default access point, the network's verifiability quietly erodes.
❌ Users no longer verify the chain directly. Their access to on-chain data becomes shaped by the policies of a single provider.
❌ API gates, rate limits, and proprietary data formats turn an open ledger into a service that can be priced or restricted at any time.
This is the opposite of what Ethereum was designed to deliver 🙅♂️
✨ Blockscout exists to prevent this outcome
✅ Every line of code is open source, giving anyone full visibility into how the chain is indexed. (
✅ Any chain can run its own instance, free from dependence on a commercial provider. (takes only 5 mins with Autoscout:
✅ A unified PRO API now covers every supported chain, offering transparent pricing and a generous free tier for most community needs. (
────────────────────────
Each of these capabilities reflects a deliberate choice to remain open where others have chosen to close.
The community donations like
@Giveth rounds help us maintain this throughout the years.
The same support from the community has enabled us to build tools that extend Ethereum security far beyond what an explorer alone can provide:
✅ Chainscout unifies supported chains and their links into a single trusted source. (
✅ Dappscout surfaces verified dApps inside the explorer, neutralizing phishing and clone attacks. (
✅ Revokescout helps users revoke risky approvals, closing a major DeFi attack vector. (
✅ AI Mode makes on-chain exploration and investigation accessible to every user. (
────────────────────────
The work behind every tool, every API, and every line of indexed data is sustained by community contributions.
This round on Giveth closes in 24 hours, and it is the most efficient moment of the year to support open infrastructure for Ethereum.
Every donation is amplified through the 550 ETH matching pool, currently valued at approximately ~1.25M USD, and reinvested into the infrastructure you have just read about.
Thanks to quadratic funding, even a one dollar contribution can be multiplied many times over.
✨ Today, that infrastructure serves over 3,000 chains and millions of users (yes, MILLIONS) every day, and it grows with every contribution.
✨ Open Ethereum has always been defended by the people who believed it was worth defending.
🚨🚨🚨 Today, that is you, and you have 24 hours to make the choice that keeps Ethereum security open & verifiable:
Thank you to every contributor who supported Blockscout in this round, to
@Giveth for hosting the program, and to
@thedaofund along with every matching pool funder for making it all possible. ☀️🌱
