BlockScout currently supports Erigon, Nethermind, Geth, Parity, OpenEthereum, Hyperledger Besu, and Ganache clients. To define the node variant, it's advised to define the ETHEREUM_JSONRPC_VARIANT environment variable. Correct values include:
parity the same for Parity, OpenEthereum and Nethermind (default)
erigon
geth
besu
ganache
BlockScout currently requires a full archive node in order to import every state change for every address on the target network.

Tracing and pruning: By default, state for the last 128 blocks kept in memory. Most states are garbage collected. If you are running a block explorer or other service relying on transaction tracing without an archive node (--gcmode=archive), you need to trace within this window! Alternatively, specify the "reexec" tracer option to allow regenerating historical state; and ideally switch to chain tracing which amortizes overhead across all traced blocks.
