# Blockscout MCP

On-chain data queries via Blockscout MCP server (already configured).
16 tools across address intelligence, transactions, contracts, and blocks.

## Chain support

**EVM-only.** Blockscout covers 90+ EVM chains. Not available for native Solana
or Tron -- use CoinGecko contract endpoints for token data on those chains.

**Solana via Neon EVM**: Chain 245022934 covers the Neon EVM layer on Solana
(EVM-compatible contracts deployed on Solana).

### Common chain IDs

| Chain | ID | Chain | ID |
|-------|----|-------|----|
| Ethereum | 1 | Arbitrum One | 42161 |
| Polygon | 137 | OP Mainnet | 10 |
| Base | 8453 | zkSync Era | 324 |
| Gnosis | 100 | Scroll | 534352 |
| Celo | 42220 | Mode | 34443 |
| Neon EVM (Solana) | 245022934 | Filecoin | 314 |

Default: Ethereum (1). Use `get_chains_list` to discover all 90+ supported chains.
