The Graph Ecosystem at Messari Mainnet 2024

The Graph has expanded its Multi-Chain Processing (MCP) capabilities to include both Subgraph and Token API endpoints. This update enables: - Direct blockchain data access through natural language queries - No backend infrastructure required - Integration with AI platforms (Claude, Cursor, Cline) - Simplified access for non-developers - Streamlined accounting and compliance reporting The service supports multiple chains and provides real-time smart contract data access. Developers can now quickly prototype dashboards and bots using live blockchain data.

The Graph's Token API Beta has expanded its NFT capabilities with comprehensive metadata support across multiple chains. Key updates include: - Full NFT metadata support (names, descriptions, images, traits) - Integration with Avalanche blockchain - Real-time sales and trade data tracking - Support for ERC-20, ERC-721, and ERC-1155 tokens - OpenSea trade data integration - Uniswap V4 pricing The API now offers a unified endpoint for querying token data across wallets and smart contracts, optimized for building dashboards, AI agents, and NFT applications.

The Graph has launched Substreams, a solution addressing Solana's data indexing challenges. The technology enables: - Real-time indexing for high TPS chains - Instant historical backfills - Automatic reorganization handling - Historical account data access - Pre-built decodings Key infrastructure improvements include: - Archive node support for genesis account state backfill - Enhanced IDL versioning - Standardized decoding protocols The system processes data with 1.5s block times and eliminates RPC bottlenecks, making it enterprise-ready. Developers can now extract, transform, and serve on-chain data at scale without traditional limitations. [Read the full blog post](thegraph.com/blog/solana-ind)

**Manta Network**, a modular L2 solution, has integrated with Subgraph Studio, enabling developers to access blockchain data efficiently. This follows recent integrations with Lens Chain for SocialFi applications and Viction Layer-1. Key Updates: - Manta Network integration live for developer access - Lens Chain support added for SocialFi development - Viction Layer-1 now available in Subgraph Studio Developers can now build advanced dapps with reliable onchain data access across these networks.
