Blockscout supports the greater Ethereum ecosystem with an open source block explorer. This explorer can be used by any chain and customized to suit the needs of that chain and its users. For Octant, this means associated projects can use the explorer to provide information about their dapps/projects (through DAppscout - ie  https://eth.blockscout.com/apps/octant), include tags and labels related to their projects, and verify their smart contracts. Because an explorer is essential infrastructure, it is used by people everyday to check their transactions, read contracts and more. Providing relevant and accurate information in a transparent, decentralized way is vital for the growth of the ecosystem.
