Substreams support two EVM block models. Extended block support gives you internal calls, balance changes, storage diffs, and code changes.

Substreams Extended Blocks Data: Data Your RPC Provider Can't Give You

As part of The Graph Foundation’s new mandate, more query volume will move from the Subgraph Studio staging environment onto The Graph Network, enabling Indexers to serve more end users. This initiative starts with BNB Smart Chain and Polygon on October 8th, 2026 with more networks to follow in the coming months.

Bringing Subgraph Studio Traffic to The Graph Network 

Onchain forecasting has crossed $150 billion in cumulative volume. Every market, dashboard, and trading agent built on that activity needs indexed blockchain data, and for Polymarket, The Graph already serves it through Subgraphs, Substreams, and the Token API.

Prediction Markets Are Booming. The Data Is Already Indexed.

The Rewards Eligibility Oracle ties indexing rewards to service delivered, the first of three initiatives to improve the protocol's economics.

A New Service Standard for Subgraph Indexing Rewards

The Graph Foundation is evolving its mandate from a neutral steward that funds and coordinates independent teams into a direct operator, maintainer, and builder of the protocol, pairing the Technical Roadmap's product vision with a proposed 20% issuance redirect to execute The Graph's long-term growth itself.

A New Mandate for The Graph Foundation

Autonomous AI agents can't operate in web3 on their own, so this post breaks down the three-layer infrastructure stack that makes them real onchain actors: ERC-8004 for identity, Subgraph MCP for environmental awareness, and x402 for economic agency, with The Graph powering two of the three.

The Onchain Agent Infrastructure Stack Explained

"Verifiable" gets used for everything from spot-checkable transparency to 1-of-N trust models, consensus, and true cryptographic proof — each a very different guarantee. The post maps these paradigms and shows how The Graph stack makes extraction and queries cryptographically verifiable for onchain finance.

Verifiable Onchain Data: What That Really Means

Ten teams won $15,000 across four tracks at ETHGlobal Lisbon, building everything from a cold-chain custody layer to a wallet security scanner. The pattern matters more than the list: all of them independently landed on standardized schemas, provenance checks, and real-time streaming.

What Builders Made with The Graph at ETHGlobal Lisbon 2026

Subgraphs deliver structured, queryable onchain data for user-facing applications. Substreams power high-throughput pipelines of filtered data directly into your choice of database. Here's how to choose the right one — and how to move between them when you scale.

Subgraphs or Substreams: Which Blockchain Data Solution Should You Choose?

x402 is bringing pay-per-request payments to the whole internet. The Graph Network has run the same pattern in production since early 2025 with GraphTally, and Subgraphs now accept x402 too.

The rules are taking shape. The institutions that build data infrastructure now will be ready. The ones that wait won't. 

Stablecoin Compliance Infrastructure Can't Wait for Regulatory Clarity 

The Graph ecosystem now offers MCP servers for Subgraphs, plus AI agent skills for Subgraphs and Substreams, enabling natural language development and data consumption without writing GraphQL or Rust.

Querying Blockchain Data with Natural Language: MCP and Skills from The Graph

Subgraphs deliver structured, queryable onchain data through GraphQL APIs. Substreams power high-performance data pipelines for model training and platform-level AI infrastructure. Together, they form the onchain data layer AI applications depend on.

How The Graph Keeps AI Applications Fueled With Onchain Data

From the Mango Markets exploit to the Terra collapse, inaccurate blockchain data has triggered hundreds of millions in losses. Here is why verifiable data infrastructure is the foundation everything else depends on.

When Blockchain Data Goes Wrong: The Cost of Inaccurate Pricing

A community builder combined Messari's standardized Subgraphs on The Graph's decentralized network with an MCP server to query 90 DeFi lending protocols across 15 chains using a single GraphQL query and plain English prompts.

How a Community Builder Queried 90 DeFi Lending Protocols With a Single GraphQL Query

The Graph is now indexing every ERC-8004 trustless agent across Base, BNB Chain, Ethereum, Monad, and Polygon — giving developers millisecond-fast discovery, reputation, and capability search.

The Graph core dev Edge & Node introduces Amp, the first blockchain-native database that delivers trusted, verifiable, and efficient access to smart contract data, enabling financial institutions, banks, and fintech to innovate quickly with confidence.

It’s Here. Fast. Verifiable. Enterprise-Ready. Amp.

Foundational Stores provide preprocessed, fork-aware data that eliminates costly rpc calls and lets developers share infrastructure. Faster queries, lower-costs, production-ready.

Substreams Foundational Stores Make Blockchain Development Cheaper and Faster

The Graph built the Token API on Substreams' parallel, chain-agnostic foundation to transform multi-chain indexing from a sequential bottleneck into a high-performance data pipeline, delivering blockchain data 2300% faster across nine major networks.

Case Study: How The Graph's Substreams and Token API Made Multi-Chain Indexing 24x Faster
