Rootstock WaaS
Thanks to a builder grant from the RootstockCollective DAO, Blockscout has launched our first Global Wallet on Rootstock! The wallet is designed for new user onboarding, and includes a built-in fiat onramp and modern authentication that streamlines login and wallet creation.

Our white-labeled SDK allows any Rootstock dapp to integrate the same wallet experience directly into their applications. This means users can access a consistent, ecosystem-wide wallet wherever they start their journey, whether in a dapp, the explorer, or a standalone interface.

Chains and Integrations
Zilliqa
Zilliqa's ZRC-2 tokens are now fully supported in their Blockscout explorer. We go where other explorers won't, specializing in customizations for unique use cases, and Zilliqa definitely qualifies!
Our X🧵 goes into details on the ZRC-2 token standard and how it's supported on their explorer. See Zilliqa in action here.

Octav
Octav is a portfolio analysis tool that gives users a complete view of their cryptocurrency holdings and DeFi investments. Now you can head to Octav directly from any address page on Blockscout! Click on Octav to see total portfolio value, individual token holdings, and positions across DeFi protocols and chains!

Content 101
We're working to expand our Blockchain 101 Content with articles on topics designed for those brand new to blockchain. To onboard the next generation of users, we need to provide info in an easy to understand and approachable format.
