Developers building on Ronin Network can now access blockchain data through Subgraph Studio integration. This update enables: - Fast and reliable onchain data access - Simplified data querying through Subgraphs - Streamlined development workflow Developers can begin building Subgraphs for Ronin applications immediately through [Subgraph Studio](https://thegraph.com/studio/). *This integration follows similar recent launches for other networks like Viction Layer-1, expanding The Graph's multi-chain support.*

The Graph has expanded its blockchain data querying capabilities by integrating **Swell Network**. - Developers can now access Swell blockchain data through Subgraph Studio - Integration enables enhanced onchain coordination capabilities - Supports development of AI-enabled decentralized applications This addition follows The Graph's recent integration of Metis L2, showing continued ecosystem growth. Developers can begin building on Swell immediately using Subgraph Studio's tools and infrastructure.

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. Visit [Subgraph Studio](https://thegraph.com/studio/) to start building.

The Graph has expanded its blockchain data indexing support to include Fraxtal blockchain. This integration enables developers building on Fraxtal to: - Access real-time onchain data through Subgraphs - Power frontend applications with reliable blockchain data - Query Fraxtal blockchain data directly via Subgraph Studio Developers can begin exploring Fraxtal data immediately through [The Graph Studio](https://thegraph.com/studio/)

The Graph has launched a new initiative offering **free Subgraph Studio integration** for eligible blockchain networks. Eligibility criteria includes: - L1s must rank in top 100 for TVL, users, or protocols on DeFiLlama - L2s/L3s require minimum $10M TVL on L2beat - Pre-mainnet chains showing strong potential may qualify Benefits include: - Free access to onchain data via subgraphs - 100,000 monthly queries at no cost - 24/7 decentralized support across Discord, Telegram & Slack Interested chains can apply through the official typeform application.

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. Visit thegraph.com/studio to start building.

The Graph is launching GRC-20, web3's first knowledge graph standard. Knowledge graphs function as digital maps that show relationships between information pieces and adapt as data evolves. Key aspects: - Creates a common language for web3 data organization - Enables building customized applications on shared data - Supports true interoperability across platforms Learn more at the Builders Office Hours with @yanivgraph on Thursday, December 5 at 5PM UTC via @GraphDevs livestream.
