The Graph has expanded its blockchain support by integrating Japan Open Chain (JOC) into Subgraph Studio.​

Key points:

  • JOC is an EVM-compatible public blockchain
  • Designed specifically to meet Japan's regulatory requirements
  • Provides infrastructure for enterprise and developer web3 services
  • Joins over 40 other supported chains including Ethereum, Arbitrum, and Base

Developers can now build subgraphs to organize and query JOC data through The Graph's decentralized infrastructure.​
