The Graph learns what and how to index Ethereum data based on subgraph descriptions, known as the subgraph manifest. The subgraph description defines the smart contracts of interest for a subgraph, the events in those contracts to pay attention to, and how to map event data to data that The Graph will store in its database.

Once you have written a subgraph manifest, you use the Graph CLI to store the definition in IPFS and tell the hosted service to start indexing data for that subgraph.

This diagram gives more detail about the flow of data once a subgraph manifest has been deployed, dealing with Ethereum transactions:


The flow follows these steps:

1.  A decentralized application adds data to Ethereum through a transaction on a smart contract.
2.  The smart contract emits one or more events while processing the transaction.
3.  Graph Node continually scans Ethereum for new blocks and the data for your subgraph they may contain.
4.  Graph Node finds Ethereum events for your subgraph in these blocks and runs the mapping handlers you provided. The mapping is a WASM module that creates or updates the data entities that Graph Node stores in response to Ethereum events.
5.  The decentralized application queries the Graph Node for data indexed from the blockchain, using the node's GraphQL endpoint. The Graph Node in turn translates the GraphQL queries into queries for its underlying   data store in order to fetch this data, making use of the store's indexing capabilities.
6.  The decentralized application displays this data in a rich UI for end-users, which they use to issue new transactions on Ethereum.
7.  The cycle repeats.


The Graph Network decentralizes the query and API layer of Web3, removing a tradeoff dApp developers struggle with today: whether to build an application that is performant or to build an app that is truly decentralized.

Today, developers can run a Graph Node on their own infrastructure, or they can build on our hosted service. Developers build and deploy subgraphs, which describe how to ingest and index data from Web3 data sources. Many leading Ethereum projects have already built subgraphs including: Uniswap, ENS, DAOstack, Synthetix, Moloch, and more. In The Graph Network, any Indexer will be able to stake Graph Tokens (GRT) to participate in the network and earn fees as well as inflation rewards for serving queries.

Consumers will be able to use this growing set of Indexers by paying for their metered usage, proving a model where the laws of supply and demand sustain the services provided by the protocol.


These are the roles that interact with the system, the behaviors they must engage in for the protocol to function correctly, and what incentives motivate them.

-    Consumers. Consumers pay Indexers for queries. These will typically be end users but could also be web services or middleware that integrate with The Graph.
-    Indexers. Indexers are the node operators of The Graph. They are motivated by earning financial rewards.
-    Curators. Curators use GRT to signal what subgraphs are valuable to index. These will typically be developers but they could also be end users supporting a service they rely upon or a persona that is purely financially motivated.
-    Delegators. Delegators put GRT at stake on behalf of an Indexer in order to earn a portion of inflation rewards and fees, without having to personally run a Graph Node. They are financially motivated.
-    Fishermen. Fishermen secure the network by checking if query responses are accurate. Fishermen are altruistically motivated, and for that reason, The Graph will initially operate a fisherman service for the network.
-    Arbitrators. Arbitrators determine whether Indexers should be slashed or not during dispute resolution. They may be financially or altruistically motivated.

Some Aditional infromation about project.

Less than month ago was Graph ICO where they have collected 12kk+ in 2 rounds - more information here https://thegraph.com/blog/public-sale-announcement

The token launch is palning in several mounths. I think it would be in 2021 already  :) January or February.

$12M is actually not small money during this pandemic. reading the article above, it seems that this project is a very promising one, imo. you couldnt attract those 4500 individuals to invest in a blockchain project if they are not seeing something rock solid here!
so is the team still planning to promote this project in the forum even after that successful sale?

and if youre not a team member of this project, are you an investor on this project? it is better to have official rep from their team, if possible. as this is quite a good project to watch out for...for sure those investors would like to see this project be known to the largest crypto community.

The second round on investment ended in 8 min. There was much more demand Than token Supply left. Somebody counted that demand was like in 25kk+, while they have collected only 12kk.

Yep I am investor and also taking part in Graph Curator programm. And i don't think that team of the project will  create official rep here. coz project trying to be fully decentralized and community driven. When project will go live all administration will be thru Community Governance ( token holders ).

How many tokens they sold to private investors? if they raised 12 mln usd with price 1 GRT = 0.03 usd, than they sold only 400 mln tokens, but total supply are 10 billions tokens  ???

please give us information about your team, and roadmap from all stages with exact date. that can make people trust to your project.

This information isn't public yet. And team sad that they will give inforamtion about this before network launch. But in telegram chats some investors from 2018 gave to community information that on seed and privat rounds was sold 1.6 bil tokens with average price near to 1 GRT = 0.003-0.004 usd. It's like almost 10x from ICO price. But all these tokens will be locked for 6 months. While all ICO tokens wull be unlocked from the start.

ICO Token Price was: 1 GRT = 0.03 USD. So do u probably mean that below ICO price in 10 times?
I don't think its fair according all investors to hide info about token metrics.

If you are taking part in Graph Curator programm - the 3-rd round deadline is moved to Thurs, Dec 10th @ 9pm PST.

It is hard if they don't have official account here in the forum.
Though I can understand that they can be reach out via other channels like telegram or discord.
But since this community has large crypto users, I believe it is better if they can be easily reach out also via this forum.
But let's see how far they can move forward with this platform because anyway they have long list of backers already.

Seems interesting but the utility of this token is too technical need a broad knowledge about indexing protocol for eth networks, Someone can explain what is this indexing and how target users will benefit from this platform? 

As far as i understand this is not a blockchain. They are using the same technology as Hedera Hashgraph (so vertical scaling). If this so than this is just a copy of existed project. But I can mistaken. Anyone can correct me?

you right that Graph is not blockchain. and you are wrong that this is the same as Hedera. Basically - Graph allowing you fast access to any blockchain data you need. It's like decentralized Google for blockchain. real Web3. For example - here is Uniswap sub-graph https://thegraph.com/explorer/subgraph/uniswap/uniswap-v2 and from here you can get any inforamtion you want about Uniswap. You just making your query and graph giving you information. You don't need to look into the smart contract or github - you can just ask infiormation you need from the sub-graph. https://www.coingecko.com for their ETH analytics and all smart contracts on ETH already using Graph protocol. CoinMarketcap i think also.

It will be wrong for the team to accept that the project is similar to existing project and if you want to state the difference be specific to  make it attractive. How fast is it Hedera Hashgraph? apply this to other comparison. I also think if fast is the only superior factor Hashgraph improve theirs to be superior sometimes in the near future. Whales are getting scary for investment although they seem to involve most investment in the year, How do you think public sale will benefit smaller investors?

Today is the last DAY of stage 3 Curators Programm. So don't forget to submit form that you recived by email. We are more closer to MainNet Launch. Soon will start the final stage of Curators program and then we are ready to GO. Hope we will see mainNet in 2020  :)

The Graph Network is officially live (https://twitter.com/i/status/1339616737881280512)

The Graph (GRT) is launching on Coinbase Pro: https://blog.coinbase.com/the-graph-grt-is-launching-on-coinbase-pro-749c95ab1483

The Graph (GRT) is launching on Binance: https://www.binance.com/en/support/announcement/9a76f72a9a0843faa0859771f95eb8fc

Now price is a bit stable 0.13-0.12$, but at the Token launch 4-5 hours ago It was almost 0.16-18$. So now it like 4x+ from the ICO price(0.03$) and just look at that Volume - $97 506 419 USD

GJ TEAM  :)

Graph on CMC: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/the-graph/

Congrats on the launch and listings. You already gained 500%

Global GraphQL API examples on the sites look really useful. I will play these days to test it.
As a note, you may consider some faster hosting. It took more than 20 seconds to open https://thegraph.com/explorer/subgraph/uniswap/uniswap-v2

Its insane. We already 0.28. It's almost 10x from ICO price. Today Graph will make in TOP50 CMC i think  :)

They are rank 59 according to coinmarketcap. They rise fast considering that they are very new in this market. Is that because they are listed in many exchanges and that include Coinbase and Binance with very large 24h trading volume. So no wonder, they don't need their official rep here anymore in the forum as they can make a hit in the market even if they don't have thread here. But I think in the future, they still need to. When they are keeping their customers for their platform. They may get clients here in the forum and also have a good discussion with the community.

bought this coin at 14 cents and i have got 100% return. it looks like the launch of mainnet will give another pump for the graph token.
There might be a correction after this before the hype for the launch of its main net will be coming on. it looks like i will try to hodl my graph token even longer than before.
This could reach 40 cents maybe.

GRT was listed on Poloniex today and the will open fpr trading later today as they say here :
https://poloniex.com/exchange/USDT_GRT

Another listing today on Kraken and trading is open.
https://trade.kraken.com/charts/KRAKEN:GRT-BTC

It is bullish for sure.

That's a bit woring if those private investors bought that cheap and those locked coins, when they gonna be released? I was thinking to hold a bit longer but with this much total supply and the news that some tokens will be released after a certain time I don't think long term holding will be that beneficial..

Here is info about SALE  - https://thegraph.com/blog/announcing-the-graphs-grt-sale

And here is good PIC about unlocks https://storage.googleapis.com/graph-web/blog/GRT_Waterfall_v3.png

P/s almost 0.5$ It's insane  :o

Project going strong! Very active community as well, let alone the strong team behind it. Good luck!

I see, the admin is also very active in the TG group to deal with problems for its users, there are more than 14k members on there, it's natural that the community is so active. Besides, GRT token is listed on various well known exchange, people of course really like this and they will even come to enliven.

I congratulate the team and community behind the project for a successful launch. Its obvious this will go huge, even though the supply is equally huge.

I see they have some allocation set aside for 'Educational Programs and Bounties', anyone know when or where such bounty program might be held?

Currently is ongoing Curators programm, it's closed for new members and it's having the last stage that will end on 22 December. And after it end's they will ANN next bounty programs i think.


P/s don't sell your GRT cheap. Graph is next ChainLink. This is project with working product that is used by all projects on ETH blockchain. And in future Graph protocol will be used for all other blockchains. Graph is indexing 350 millions request each day. it's like 6-7% of Google.

Congrats on the successful launch.

I bought it at $0.19 and I'm tempted to cash-out.

How long do you think will last the bull run? You are hours away from the $1bn mark!

So I saw an article just now about 2 hours ago, 1st iteration had the coin at .30 then I click another articl and its at .45 then another and .55 and needless to say I just bought a bit at some .75.

What I am here to ask is those who see this at .20 and so on, and this post here only 2 pages long for a coin that is not tradable on Coinbase.

1. Where do they come from out of the blue
2. How/where can I have higher visibility to these types of coins?

I have mined for 3 years now, only broke even and speculated in a lot of alt coins of which most are no longer in operation.  What makes a coin go from unheard of to Coin base material in a day it seems like.  I know this a tread for the Graph so let me refocus the above n this, what did the The Graph do right that almost everyone else is doing wrong?

There is so much hype around this project now. Skyrocketed to .75c.

I heard about it from some handles I follow on twitter. Those guys are the absolute beasts in calling gems. And the project too, apart from having a working, in-demand product, appears to be led by some very experienced crypto market operators, they know how to hype.

I can't say Graph Protocol have come from out of the blue. When they have Ann their ICO - it was quite Hyped. All main sites who following ICO was talking about Graph. For example ICODrops gave Graph even "High interest rate" https://icodrops.com/the-graph/

P/s To all the curators - don't forget that tomorrow the last day when you should submit form for last stage  :)

The fluctuation is most felt on the second day after the opening of the trade. And currently, GRT tends to follow the rhythm of Bitcoin price movements. As far as we believe that bitcoin is still looking for its new ATH, GRT will continue to follow the mainstream market trends. I enjoy trading with this coin.

Check Staking guides how to delegate your GRT https://twitter.com/graphprotocol/status/1341106516099657728 and here is Medium https://stakingfac.medium.com/the-graph-staking-guide-5ec1455f4783

Start earning more GRT  :)

GRT token is gonna have some major moves. Now the price is around $0.58 now, could not catch this gem before as I have out of enough cash. The project seems revolutionary, It has the great volume to change the top ten crypto list. Just first couple of days says it's reached plenty about demand!

Thanks, the Medium article is very useful.

I didn't know there is a 0.5% fee on the delegating amount, but I will delegate my tokens anyway. What APY could we expect from the Graph?

Thanks for the info, I'm surprised that such a project has such little interest.

For decentralized trading

And the price is gradually decreasing, now it is already 39 cents and there is a feeling that it will go even lower.
Now the 45th place in the cap, but I think we will see even lower.
It will be possible to buy those who missed.

I don't know if people were rellay interested and beleived in the project or it was only a marketing trick to list it on all the major exchanges but the initial pump was a fact. I wached it closely and after the first dump the price lost momentum, then the algos took over the trading and they just exaused most of the weak hands left hodling. Hoping for chances to jump onboad again under 0.4. we will see how it plays out bur I think there's a potential in the project.

Graph having good Token economy. For example if you want to delegate Tokens or use them as indexer you will lock them for 28 days. SO you can't just undelegate and sell at the same day. And this is really good protection from any dupms. If you check here https://network.thegraph.com/ you could see that already 850kk tokens currently locked in ecosystem. And that number will be much more bigger.

Any indexer around? I would like to see an index node installation guide.
Regarding the GRT price, there are algos keeping the price low. Those bots belong either to whales or the actual Graph project, which is not nice. If they gonna be protecting the price range using algos, I don't think many investors will join the ship.

Graph making it's protocol Multiblockchain. https://twitter.com/graphprotocol/status/1354839557997359106

Today Graph like crazy +55%. 1.7$.  Soon 2$  :)

Just as the very advent of the Internet led to huge changes in its time when separate local networks were combined into a single neutral network, the technology now provides a new common platform for higher-level services. And, as with the arrival of the Web 2.0 era, the first signs of the Web 3.0 era have been visible for several years.

The Graph is thrilled to announce @arbitrum is now supported on the hosted service 🎉

Developers on Arbitrum can now build & publish subgraphs to scale their dapps 🚀 

The Graph & Arbitrum united will further scale Web3 🌐

The Graph To Support Optimistic Ethereum at Mainnet Launch To Help Scale Ethereum

Developers building dapps on Optimistic Ethereum will soon be able to create subgraphs to easily access indexed blockchain data via The Graph.

Optimism and The Graph have partnered. The Graph will be providing indexing and querying services to developers building on the Optimistic Ethereum L2 to help Ethereum scale. The Graph will go live on the hosted service once Optimism launches publicly, and is excited to provide support to developers in the Optimism community. Developers building on Optimistic Ethereum are also now eligible for grants through The Graph Foundation, such as building dapps with Optimism and The Graph, developing subgraph tooling, or educational materials!

This marks another important integration for The Graph as the community continues to add new chains to the hosted service. Over the past few months, support for more than 19 EVM-based solutions has been added; including the Polygon integration completed in February, followed by Arbitrum in June, and soon Optimism. Chain by chain these integrations are adding the critical infrastructure necessary for Web3 to scale

Introducing Gelato’s Limit Order Library: DEX (Limit) Sells

Although commonplace on Centralized Exchanges, Limit Orders have yet to reach wide adoption from Decentralized Exchange platforms. The reason DEX UIs have been lagging behind on implementing this feature is deeply rooted in the limitations of the EVM that make it hard to automate users' trades while also upholding DeFi’s core tenet of being non-custodial.

Gelato has researched and shipped systems to work around the EVM’s trustless automation limitations, without giving up user’s self-custody, since 2019. Yet to date, even AMMs such as Uniswap still offer no native Limit Order capability in the pure sense on their own UI. Many users on AMMs are still only presented with the option to go and buy at the current market rate, although it is worth mentioning that some of the bigger aggregators, such as 1inch, have made advancements on this front.

Gelato now sets out to obliterate this barrier for Decentralized Exchange developers with our brand new limit-orders-lib and limit-orders-react npm package releases. These two libraries provide an easy one-stop solution for developers to hook up native Limit Orders to their AMM or other DEX of choice — in as little as 10 minutes! The smart contract components of the limit order system have been audited by Certik. The spectrum of tooling the library provides you with ranges from ready-made React Components for the quickest go-live imaginable, to React Hooks and, on the more customizable end, simple methods for interacting with the underlying Gelato Limit Order infrastructure.

I am now Slightly invested in this Via the CoinBase Token Academy. I am making a MATIC Token, and soon an ETH Token, and I am interested in this Project and now invested in it a little bit. I want to Learn how it Works and see if we can use it with our Tokens, as we will be Creating an AMM and some Other DeFi Things.
