Boba Network Launches Bobascan Explorer in Collaboration with Etherscan
Palo Alto, CA, 6th July, 2022, Chainwire
Boba Network, the blockchain Layer-2 scaling solution and Hybrid Compute platform, has partnered with Etherscan to launch Bobascan, a Boba-centric version of the popular explorer for EVM blockchains.
Etherscan has over time cemented itself as the most used block explorer for Ethereum transactions, thanks to a large number of features that help users make sense of the blockchain.
Now, with Bobascan, Boba Network users will be able to access the same analysis tools available on Ethereum. These include the “verified contracts” feature that allows teams to load their contract’s source code, which is then compared to the actual bytecode deployed at a particular address. This ensures that users can analyze the code they’re interacting with and be sure that everything is working according to expectations.
Bobascan will also feature additional, much needed features such as Proxy analysis. Proxy contracts are upgradable programs that delegate all transactions to an “implementation” contract. However, without a proper block explorer implementation, users will only see a cryptic interaction with the proxy and not the underlying code.
Developers will also be able to use Bobascan APIs to read blockchain data, as they offer a powerful alternative to native tools that directly index node data, which is perfect for less mission-critical uses.
Boba Network is an optimistic based Layer-2 scaling solution with additional development focused on improving UX. Over time, Boba aims to unlock the rollup technology potential to bring more flexible blockchain computation. Currently, Boba is fully compatible with EVM-based tools, and is deploying with multichain support for both Moonbeam and Fantom.
“Adding Etherscan functionality to Boba Network is another important step in our mission to give developers tools to build incredible web3 experiences. With improved search and navigation, and core tooling such as contract verification, API access, and improved proxy contract interaction, Bobascan just took the Boba builder experience to another level.” – Ino Murko, Engineering Manager, Enya.ai.
“Working together with Boba Network will be beneficial to users, the two teams and the rollup ecosystem as a whole,” added Matthew Tan, CEO and Founder of Etherscan. “In the complex environment of smart contracts, having equitable access to understanding the data is of critical importance.”
