Discover dApps on Arbitrum with the DAppscout Marketplace

Alongside our block explorer, the DAppscout marketplace is also integrated into Arbitrum One. DAppscout is your go-to platform for discovering, exploring, and interacting with decentralized applications across the Arbitrum ecosystem. With security score ratings for smart contracts and safe links, DAppscout ensures a secure onchain experience for everyday users.

DAppscout's key features for Arbitrum One include DApp discovery, allowing users to easily find new and popular DApps across various categories, including DeFi, NFTs, and DAOs.

Security scores for smart contracts help users make informed decisions about which DApps to interact with. The personalized experience feature lets users bookmark their favorite DApps, create shortcuts, and customize their marketplace experience.

What is Arbitrum One?

Arbitrum One is a flagship Layer 2 optimistic rollup chain that scales securely on Ethereum. Launched by the Offchain Labs team in August 2021, Arbitrum One leverages the Arbitrum Rollup protocol to provide high-performance Ethereum dApps with low transaction costs and Ethereum-grade security guarantees.

The chain offers:

• Full EVM Equivalence: Migrating smart contracts from Ethereum to Arbitrum L2 requires minimal or no modifications.
• Decentralization and Permissionless Access: Deriving security from Ethereum while enhancing its capabilities.
• Diverse Ecosystem: Empowering developers to build the next generation of applications across DeFi, NFTs, and DAOs.

"Arbitrum's rapid innovation and impressive growth make it a frontrunner in the L2 ecosystem. We're excited to support Arbitrum One and contribute to its ongoing development," said Mojmir Racak, Head of BD at Blockscout.

The Arbitrum ecosystem is thriving, with a diverse range of projects and applications leveraging its scalable and secure infrastructure. Blockscout's integration with Arbitrum One aims to further empower developers and users by providing the tools they need to explore and interact with the network effectively.

What’s next?

Blockscout's integration with Arbitrum One is just the beginning. As the Arbitrum ecosystem continues to grow, we are committed to enhancing our platform with new features and updates that support the evolving needs of developers and users.

Stay tuned for more exciting announcements and updates as we continue to build and innovate in the blockchain space.
