Crypto is extra scary today 👻 but blockchain data shouldn’t be.
Open, fast data access is how investigators trace funds after a hack. Tagging scam and hack addresses helps prevent the next one.

The Binance hack may have drained up to $5.7B
What's known: the hot wallet signed an EIP-7702 delegation to an attacker contract. How that signature was obtained is still unknown.
Tether froze 1.567B+ USDT. Circle froze 823M USDC.

.@RobinhoodCrypto is the largest EVM catalogue on @dexbooster_one, but there were challenges getting token holder data.
They switched to Blockscout’s multichain API. The first token they tried came back with 50+ holders.

Did that contract just change?
Voting in a DAO means trusting the contract behind the proxy. If that contract changes, do you hear about it? A scheduled call to the Blockscout API can tell you.
Endpoint docs ↓

Ethereum has about 121M contracts. About 7.9M are verified.
Pick any of 40+ chains on the Verified contracts page of Blockscout Multichain explorer to see its own totals, plus each contract's language, compiler version, verification time, and more.

Blockscout has pledged $10K to the Address Poisoning Detection and Public API initiative in TheDAO's ETHSecurity Initiatives Round!
Address poisoning scams trick users into copying lookalike addresses from their transaction history, often leading to significant losses.
This grant aims to improve how these scams are detected across Ethereum and L2s, building a public API that wallets can use to identify suspicious transfers and warn users before they send funds.
The goal is to bring address poisoning protection directly into the wallets people use every day.
Big thanks to @blockscout for backing this important work!

Many thanks to @fearsoff for responsibly disclosing a security issue in Blockscout 🐐

For open projects, researchers like this are more important than ever 🙏
