Blockscout Multichain Tokens Scraper
Scrape token data from any Blockscout-supported chain, up to a million per run. Collect ERC-20, ERC-721, and ERC-1155 tokens with their name, symbol, address, and type. Filter by chain, token standard, or search query. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.
Blockscout's block explorers hold rich token data across Ethereum, Base, Optimism, Arbitrum, Polygon, Gnosis, zkSync Era, and Blast, but manually browsing each chain is slow and repetitive. This Actor reads the public token lists directly, letting you pull structured token records by chain, token type, or a free-text search on name or symbol. It returns every match in one consistent schema, ready for analysis or database import.
| Who uses it | What they scrape Blockscout Multichain Tokens Scraper for |
|---|---|
| Crypto analysts | Build a cross-chain inventory of ERC-20 tokens for market research. |
| NFT marketplace developers | Pull ERC-721 and ERC-1155 token lists to seed a new collection index. |
| DeFi researchers | Track token deployments across L2s like Base and Optimism for early signal. |
| Blockchain data engineers | Feed a data warehouse with daily token snapshots from multiple EVM chains. |
What it does
This Actor collects token records from Blockscout block explorers across multiple chains and returns each token as a flat row with its name, symbol, address, and token type.
- ⛓️ Multi-chain support: choose from Ethereum, Base, Optimism, Arbitrum, Polygon, Gnosis, zkSync Era, or Blast.
- 🪙 Token type filter: limit results to ERC-20, ERC-721, or ERC-1155 standards.
- 🔍 Free-text search: find tokens by name, symbol, or contract address across the selected chain.
- 📊 Scalable collection: set a maximum from 1 to 1,000,000 tokens per run.
Results export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML, or straight from the API.
What you can do with Blockscout Multichain Tokens Scraper data
📈 Map token ecosystems across L2s.
A DeFi analyst runs the Actor on Base, Optimism, and Arbitrum with the ERC-20 filter to compare token diversity and spot new projects before they gain traction.
🖼️ Seed an NFT marketplace database.
A developer scrapes ERC-721 and ERC-1155 tokens from Ethereum and Polygon to populate a new NFT aggregator with initial collection metadata.
🔎 Audit token deployments by name.
A security researcher searches for a brand name across all supported chains to identify unauthorized token copies or impersonation contracts.
📊 Feed a cross-chain analytics pipeline.
A data engineer schedules daily runs for Gnosis and zkSync Era to keep a data warehouse current with the latest token registrations.
Why choose this scraper
| What you get | |
|---|---|
| Multi-chain | Query eight EVM chains from one Actor without switching explorers. |
| Standard filter | Isolate ERC-20, ERC-721, or ERC-1155 tokens for targeted analysis. |
| Search precision | Find tokens by partial name, symbol, or exact contract address. |
| Structured output | Every token returns name, symbol, address, and type in a flat row. |

Configure the run
Drive the Actor by selecting a chain and optionally a token type or a search query, and filters run as each token is read so only matches reach your dataset. The Input tab lists every parameter.
A first run with the defaults:
{"maxItems": 10}
A larger pull:
{"maxItems": 200}
Pricing
Pay-per-result: $0.0085 per result collected. You pay only for the results written to your dataset.

Use with AI agents (MCP)
Give an AI agent live access to Blockscout Multichain Tokens Scraper through the Model Context Protocol. Add the Actor to Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client:
$claude mcp add --transport http apify "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=parseforge/blockscout-multichain-tokens-scraper"
Then prompt it in plain language to run the scraper and read back the results.
Troubleshooting
Why am I getting no results?
Check that your search query matches a real token name, symbol, or address on the selected chain. Also verify that the token type filter is not excluding everything. Try running without filters first to see all tokens.
The run is taking too long.
Large chains like Ethereum have millions of tokens. Reduce the maximum tokens limit or add a token type filter to narrow the scope. The Actor processes tokens sequentially and will complete given enough time.
I see duplicate tokens in the output.
Blockscout may return the same token under different query paths. Deduplicate by contract address in your post-processing step, as the Actor returns raw results as received.
The Actor fails with an error on a specific chain.
Some Blockscout instances may have temporary downtime. Retry the run later, or switch to a different chain to verify the Actor is working. Check the Apify log for the specific HTTP error.
FAQ
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Which chains does this Actor support? | It supports Ethereum, Base, Optimism, Arbitrum, Polygon, Gnosis, zkSync Era, and Blast. Select one chain per run from the input dropdown. |
| Can I scrape multiple chains in one run? | No, each run targets a single chain. To collect tokens from multiple chains, run the Actor once per chain and merge the datasets. |
| What token standards can I filter by? | You can filter by ERC-20, ERC-721, or ERC-1155. Leave the token type empty to collect all standards on the selected chain. |
| How do I search for a specific token? | Use the optional search field to query by token name, symbol, or contract address. The search is a partial match, so entering 'USDC' will return all tokens containing that string. |
| What data does each token record include? | Each row returns the token name, symbol, contract address, and token type. The exact fields are shown in the sample output on the Actor's page. |
| Is there a rate limit on Blockscout queries? | The Actor respects Blockscout's public API rate limits and paces requests to avoid throttling. If you need very large pulls, increase the max items and let it run. |
| Can I export the results to my own database? | Yes, you can export the dataset as CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML and import it into any database or analysis tool. |
| Does this Actor require an API key? | No, it reads public Blockscout endpoints and does not need any authentication or API key. |
| What is the maximum number of tokens I can collect? | You can set up to 1,000,000 tokens per run. The actual number depends on how many tokens exist on the chain for your filters. |
| Can I run this on a schedule? | Yes, you can set up a recurring schedule in Apify to run the Actor daily or weekly and track new token deployments over time. |
