Functionality
ProtocolScout is a suite of blockchain tools optimized for CPAs and financial auditors working with digital assets. Its features enable efficient interaction with:
- Balances: current, historical, coins, tokens.
- Total Supply: current, historical (tokens).
- Transactions: hash or address and date/block range (coming soon).
- Private key verification & xPub management (coming soon).
Balances & total supply are generally available to the public via the dedicated explorers on sites like Etherscan or Polygonscan. However, ProtocolScout addresses many of their shortcomings because ProtocolScout is:
- Multi-chain: it combines access to 8+ networks such as Arbitrum, Base, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Optimism, Polygon etc.
- Efficient to use: coins and tokens are processed simultaneously — users can specify the assets they wish to examine or they can let the “scout” automatically utilize our directory of known assets to deliver the maximum amount of relevant information.
- Highly precise: users can get the latest information or they can “zoom in” on a specific block number or pick any timezone and date+hour in the past that they wish to examine.
- Transparent & verifiable: each data element retrieved from the blockchain is also linked to a 2ndSource of corresponding information to enable fast verification of the delivered results.
- Embeddable: any website owner can add our balances widget to their pages and enable their visitors to lookup on-chain information in just a few clicks. Visit our widget section to see how.
Auditors and CPAs can use ProtocolScout as a primary source of blockchain data for financial reporting or it can be utilized as the secondary source for firms that have earlier scripting or automation around public sources. Our free beta is available for Balances and Total Supply on-line at https://protocolscout.com.
Premium / Paid Access
ProtocolScout is an independent product and is built by AlgoMetric.
