Tycho Releases 2026 Roadmap for DEX Liquidity Data Infrastructure

**Tycho has outlined its 2026 development timeline** for delivering real-time DEX liquidity data through The Graph Network. **Key milestones:** - Q1: Private MVP with Graph Ops leading development - Q2: Public beta launch with expanded access - Q4: Full Horizon-based protocol integration The service addresses a practical challenge: obtaining accurate, real-time prices from decentralized exchanges requires expensive infrastructure. Tycho handles reorg complexity and multi-chain coverage through a single streaming interface. **Built on Substreams**, the platform targets trading systems, solvers, and applications that need current onchain liquidity state without maintaining their own infrastructure.

DTCC Uses The Graph Subgraphs for Tokenized Securities Infrastructure

The Graph Foundation and Edge & Node representatives discussed enterprise Ethereum adoption at an Enterprise Ethereum Alliance event. **Key Development:** - DTCC's Great Collateral Experiment utilized The Graph's Subgraphs technology - The implementation enabled rapid proof-of-concept iteration for tokenized securities - Success positioned The Graph to work with other regulated financial institutions **Technical Context:** Subgraphs, originally introduced to help DeFi protocols index blockchain data, are now powering traditional finance infrastructure. The technology provides SQL-native analytics, verifiable data lineage, and audit-ready provenance for institutional use. The collaboration demonstrates how blockchain indexing tools are bridging the gap between decentralized and traditional finance systems.

Agent0 Subgraphs Launch Across Five Blockchains with The Graph

Agent0 has launched official subgraphs on Base, BNB Chain, Ethereum, Monad, and Polygon in partnership with The Graph protocol. The infrastructure provides real-time indexing for ERC-8004 agent identities, capabilities, reputation data, and validation across all five networks. The subgraphs enable developers to query agent data through a unified GraphQL schema, eliminating the need to build custom indexers or manage RPC limits. Key features include: - Millisecond query response times for agent discovery - Cross-chain agent reputation tracking - Real-time monitoring of new agent registrations - Access to adoption statistics across networks The project has already processed over 1 million queries and is positioned as public infrastructure for the emerging agent economy, where autonomous AI agents transact and interact on-chain.

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.

New AI Tool Brings Live Aave Data to Claude Across 7 Chains

A new blockchain data tool called **graph-aave-mcp** now connects Claude AI with live Aave protocol data across seven chains. **Key capabilities:** - Simulate health factors during price crash scenarios - Track liquidation events in real time - Compare supply and borrow rates across different deployments - Monitor governance proposals through conversation The tool is powered by The Graph Protocol's indexed data and requires just one npm install to access every major Aave deployment. **Who benefits:** - Risk analysts can model scenarios conversationally - DeFi researchers gain real-time market insights - Builders can prototype dashboards by describing requirements - Content creators can query live data while writing The tool eliminates manual GraphQL queries, unit conversions, and stale data snapshots鈥攗sers simply ask questions in plain English.
