Etherscan introduces a new tool called Blockscan. It is a decentralized internet search engine that responds to the requirements of modern web technologies.
IPFS
The advent of the web Ethereum ushered in a new era of internet solutions. One of them is, for example, version 3.0, which has been decentralized due to the extremely simple integration of individual APIs.
This allows you to get tools that work with networks blockchain, and we're talking about browser extensions such as walletsas well as about the browsers themselves integrated with the wallet system.
It can serve as an example Opera, based on the protocol Inter Planets File System (IPFS).
This solution enables decentralized file transfer, and thus - building a fully decentralized network.
UnstoppableDomains
The IPFS protocol is fully integrated with internet platforms, which allows creating new, functional network solutions.
One of them is UnstoppableDomains - a tool for creating and managing websites.
It can also be used by authors of blogs and articles published on the web. What's more, the costs of the service offered are not too high - prices for individual domains start from 10 USD.
For domains with the extension kryptoUnstoppable Domains is based on the Ethereum blockchain, while in the case of the .zil - on blockchain Zilliqa.
It should be emphasized here that pages created using the described solution are more difficult to access than traditional websites - it is necessary to use appropriate extensions in their case.
Blockscan
In order to meet the above requirements and to be able to offer a search engine suitably adapted to a decentralized network, Etherscan developed a solution called Blockscan.
It is a decentralized internet search engine that is currently under constant development. It is not yet able to search the entire 3.0 network, but only those resources that its database contains.
Therefore, a special function was created for it called "Submit your link", Which allows you to complete the missing information.
