Blockchain explorers are not meant to be siloed in gated, closed-source environments, but transparent and available to all. \n\nWhile Blockscout open-source explorer is currently the #1 open-source explorer for chains and rollups, it is vital we continue making improvements to support chains and provide all the tools and views developers and users need.\n\nWe are working to extend Blockscout to provide relevant metadata, increase statistics tooling, and improve API functionality, creating a comprehensive solution for chain exploration and data retrieval. \n\n# Open-source explorers support the ecosystem\n\nEVM blockchains and L2s including zk rollups and optimistic rollups need open-source explorers and tooling to support: \n- Freely available data\n- Data accuracy checks\n- Redundancy and resiliency \n- Community-driven features, customizations and innovations\n- Transparency\n- Quick, cost-effective implementation, especially for testnets\n- Small chain and niche chain support\n- Consistent multi-chain experience\n- Ongoing, fast feature development\n- Trustlessness and auditability\n\n# Blockscout is a community-driven solution\n\n![Projects](https://2383309224-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-Lq1XoWGmy8zggj_u2fM%2Fuploads%2Fw3dTDLmPyLAPoosi5DRZ%2Fproject-logos.jpg?alt=media&token=20033b6d-ee5e-4d90-a1ce-d5db6752bcb3)\n\nBlockscout has been in production for more than 5 years. We continue to build and improve an open-source explorer used by 500+ chains in the space including most testnets + a hosted Ethereum mainnet instance provided as a public good. \n\nBlockscout is used by all types of chains to quickly spin up an instance and provide transactional transparency right away for their users. We continue to make strides with our interface, indexing speed and optimization, and your help is vital to continued improvements and development.\n\n# How your funds will be used\n\n![UI](https://2383309224-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-Lq1XoWGmy8zggj_u2fM%2Fuploads%2F6bR1Y370zhW2nECWdpqY%2Fnew-features.jpg?alt=media&token=4b4a2819-c907-474c-bf78-d25cf9a26fa3)\n\nIn the last Gitcoin Grants Round we were working to fully open-source the new Blockscout UI. We're proud to announce this is now open source, and any project can use and customize the new UI with features including MyAccount and DApp Marketplace!\n\nNext we are working to support advanced Metadata retrieval and display as well as ENS support.  We are also making a concerted push to support all features that closed-source explorers currently offer. We've identified the gaps and are making an effort to close these quickly, with your help!\n\n_To learn more about items we are working on, please see the [Blockscout Roadmap](https://docs.blockscout.com/about/roadmap)._ \n\nAs we continue to decentralize the future, the tools and infrastructure supporting decentralization must also follow this pattern. We appreciate your funding to support an open-source, premium block explorer - by and for the community! \n\n## Thank You!", "logoImgData": {}, "bannerImgData": {}, "projectGithub": "blockscout", "projectTwitter": "blockscoutcom"}
