The Graph Announces Support for Bitcoin and Major Protocol Advancements
The Graph Announces Support for Bitcoin and Major Protocol Advancements
🔥 Monumental Year Ahead
The Graph, a decentralized protocol for indexing and querying blockchain data, has announced its integration with Bitcoin. This was made possible through a collaboration with StreamingFast and Playgrounds0x, enabling access to Bitcoin historical data and BRC-20 token transactions via GraphQL. Additionally, The Graph has completed its 'Sunray' phase, introducing features like free query plans, an upgraded subgraph deployment interface, and credit card payment options for developers. The protocol is also expanding to support over 40 blockchains and implementing advancements such as real-time data streaming, subgraph pruning, and AI data services.
🌅 The dawn of decentralized data has never looked brighter! @graphprotocol Network's expansion to support 40+ blockchains is a game-changer for developers. 👨💻 Now, with the upgraded Indexer and seamless subgraph integration, building dapps becomes a breeze across multiple
40+ leading blockchains and L2s are now supported on The Graph Network 🌅 That means that thanks to new tech enhancements such as the upgrade Indexer, devs across 4️⃣0️⃣+ chains can use subgraphs on the network more easily than ever, including @arbitrum, @avax, @Celo, @FantomFDN,
It is now incredibly easy to upgrade a subgraph to The Graph Network 🤩. Try it out yourself: thegraph.com/hosted-service…, or watch the short video by @edgeandnode's @Marcus_Rein_ walking through the new upgrade flow: youtu.be/MLqJdVCom5k #GraphRising

Agent0 Subgraphs Now Live Across Five Mainnets with Unified GraphQL Schema
**Agent0 Subgraphs are now operational across five major blockchain networks** - Base, BNB Chain, Ethereum, Monad, and Polygon - using a single GraphQL schema. **Key features:** - Real-time indexing of every ERC-8004 agent across all chains - No code rewrites needed when switching between networks - Already processed over 1 million queries - Accessible via [Graph Explorer](https://thegraph.com/explorer?search=agent0) **What this enables:** - Developers can query agent data with a single GraphQL request instead of scanning thousands of blocks - AI agents can discover, hire, and interact with each other using structured blockchain data - Machine-scale data access for agents that operate continuously The infrastructure indexes agent identities, capabilities, reputation, and validation data in milliseconds. Developers building ERC-8004 agents can now access comprehensive onchain data without building custom indexers.
🔧 The Graph Overhauls Economics
The Graph Network is rolling out **major economic upgrades** in 2026 that fundamentally reshape how the protocol operates. **Key Changes:** - **REO (Rewards Engine Optimization)**: Indexer rewards now tied to actual work performed, not just passive staking - **DIPs (Direct Indexer Payments)**: Consumers can pay Indexers directly for specific data services - **Liquid staking**: Lowers barriers for centralized exchanges to participate in $GRT delegation These changes aim to create **better incentive alignment** across the network and build a more sustainable economic model for the protocol's data services infrastructure.
The Graph Gateway Enables Direct USDC Payments for Subgraph Queries
The Graph Gateway has integrated x402 payment support, allowing developers to query any Subgraph using USDC on Base without requiring API keys. **Key Features:** - Direct USDC payments on Base network - No API key management needed - Simple npm package installation: `@graphprotocol/client-x402` This update streamlines the payment process for accessing blockchain data through The Graph's infrastructure, removing traditional authentication barriers. [Documentation available here](https://thegraph.com/docs/en/subgraphs/guides/x402-payments/)
🔗 One Query Unlocks 60 DeFi Protocols
A community builder solved DeFi's data fragmentation problem by connecting Messari's standardized Subgraphs with an MCP server on The Graph network. **The Challenge:** - Each lending protocol used different data formats - Required 40+ custom adapters to access protocol data - No unified way to query across chains **The Solution:** - Combined standardized Subgraphs with MCP server technology - Created single query access to 60 lending protocols - Spans 15 different blockchain networks [Read the full technical breakdown](https://thegraph.com/blog/community-builder-queried-defi-lending-protocols-subgraphs-mcp/)
The Graph's 2026 Roadmap Tackles Unsolved Blockchain Data Challenges
The Graph Protocol has released its 2026 roadmap, addressing persistent challenges in blockchain data infrastructure that remain unsolved despite common assumptions. The protocol acknowledges that blockchain data problems require layered solutions rather than single fixes. Their roadmap outlines a comprehensive approach to organizing and accessing blockchain data more effectively. **Key Points:** - Blockchain data infrastructure faces ongoing technical challenges - Solutions require a multi-layered stack approach - The Graph's 2026 roadmap provides detailed breakdown of problems and proposed fixes Full technical details available in [The Graph's announcement](https://x.com/graphprotocol/status/2042226022964224301?s=20).
