The Graph Protocol Announces Major Network Upgrade

**CreatorBid** has integrated The Graph's Subgraphs to provide AI agents with instant blockchain data access. The integration delivers several key benefits: - Eliminated infrastructure overhead - Reduced operational costs - Enabled real-time data processing for agent creators This solution addresses a critical need for AI agents operating in web3 environments, where **instant access to blockchain data** is essential for effective decision-making. The Graph's Subgraphs provide structured, queryable data that allows AI agents to process blockchain events efficiently without managing complex infrastructure.

**The Graph's Token API Beta** now enables natural language queries for blockchain data access. **Key Features:** - Query token data using plain English through AI assistants - Compatible with Claude, Cursor, and Cline via MCP integration - Supports Solana SPL tokens, Avalanche NFTs, and Uniswap V4 price data **Use Cases:** - Analytics dashboards - AI agent training - Portfolio tracking applications - Wallet user interfaces **Getting Started:** - [Claude integration guide](https://thegraph.com/docs/en/ai-suite/token-api-mcp/claude/) - [Cline setup](https://thegraph.com/docs/en/ai-suite/token-api-mcp/cline/) - [Cursor documentation](https://thegraph.com/docs/en/ai-suite/token-api-mcp/cursor/) The API provides enterprise-grade infrastructure with cleaner, more consistent outputs for developers building web3 applications.

**The Graph Builders Basecamp** transforms web3 learning from tedious study into an engaging game-like experience. **Key Features:** - Mission-based learning system - Skill progression tracking - **Proof-of-progress NFTs** as rewards - Designed specifically for Web2 developers transitioning to web3 The platform focuses on practical building rather than theoretical learning, offering hands-on missions that teach blockchain development fundamentals. Developers earn space-themed NFT collectibles as they complete challenges and master new concepts. This gamified approach addresses a common barrier in web3 adoption - the steep learning curve that often discourages traditional developers from exploring blockchain technology.

**Substreams** has introduced support for **Solana account changes**, addressing a critical issue for developers working with Solana's frequent re-organizations. **Key Features:** - **Fork-aware by default** - automatically handles blockchain reorganizations - **90 days of historical data** - comprehensive account tracking - **Ownership change monitoring** - tracks changes even when accounts are deleted The solution eliminates common data pipeline breaks caused by Solana's re-orgs, providing developers with reliable, automated tracking without manual intervention.
