What protects you on Ethereum and other blockchains? It isn’t DEXs or trading apps or anything built for value movement or extraction. It’s the underlying tools like block explorers, contract verifiers, and revoke applications, along with dedicated researchers and organizations, who are protecting your security and onchain funds from bad actors. It’s public infrastructure built by small teams, and often funded by grants and goodwill. As exploits and phishing keep climbing in 2026, public goods need your support more than ever.
The Ethereum Security QF Round on Giveth is providing an opportunity to make a difference and really support public goods. A 540 ETH matching pool, contributed by TheDAO Security Fund along with CertiK, Quantstamp, and ChainSecurity, is being distributed across ~100 security projects through quadratic funding. Many small donations unlock far more matching than a few large ones. Your $5 counts more than you think.
The round closes May 15.
Blockscout is in the round. Open, free to self-host, used across the entire EVM ecosystem. If Blockscout has saved you time, helped you verify a contract or check a transaction, or made your work possible in any way, this is the moment to give back.
