Contract Source Provider Url

[trajan0x]

One thing that would be useful is to have an contractSource defined for fetching contract source. So, for etherscan, we'd define an apiconforming toetherscan_standardwith an api url ofhttps://api.etherscan.io/api?. Or sourcify` with the sourcify standard

Happy to submit a pr if there's interest

Cool idea - I think it needs to start with the data and not with displaying the data so I opened: https://github.com/ethereum-lists/chains/issues/404

That said - it is only needed as a workaround currently. Ideally you do not need to go through any centralized provider - but you:

• get the contract-bytecode (e.g. via RPC)
• extract the meta-data hash from the bytecode
• fetch the sources referenced in metadata

sourcify is helping this process it verifies in a way that the original hashes match
