Exploring Confidential Tokens with Zama on Blockscout

Blockscout explorers now support ERC-7984 confidential tokens, which keep balances and transfer amounts encrypted while their activity remains indexed and viewable onchain. The integration recognizes these tokens as a dedicated type on the Tokens page, marks transfer amounts as confidential while showing sender, recipient, transaction hash and block, and exposes confidential transfer histories through Blockscout's APIs. The article presents this as a practical step toward confidential smart contracts built with Zama's Fully Homomorphic Encryption protocol, which runs as a confidentiality layer on existing chains such as Ethereum. Blockscout also says it is preparing support for tracking FHE operations and Homomorphic Compute Units.
