What to know

BlockScout is open-source EVM block-explorer infrastructure (repository blockscout/blockscout, docs at docs.blockscout.com) that supports a broad range of EVM-based networks. Within the Tempo ecosystem, the corroborated public surfaces are the block explorer at explore.tempo.xyz (Moderato testnet) and Sourcify-compatible contract verification at contracts.tempo.xyz that surfaces verified source code and ABI in the explorer.

Best for

  • +Browsing Tempo blocks, transactions, and accounts at explore.tempo.xyz
  • +Verifying smart contracts (Sourcify-compatible) and viewing source code and ABI
  • +Teams wanting open-source EVM block-explorer infrastructure

Watch out

  • Whether BlockScout itself powers Tempo's explorer is not independently confirmed — treat 'powered by BlockScout' as unverified
  • Confirm you are on official tempo.xyz domains (explore.tempo.xyz, contracts.tempo.xyz) to avoid lookalike sites
