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.
and 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 , 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 integration completed in February, followed by in June, and soon Optimism. Chain by chain these integrations are adding the critical infrastructure necessary for Web3 to scale.
Subgraphs on Optimistic Ethereum
Optimistic Ethereum is an Ethereum L2 scaling solution that uses optimistic rollups to achieve lower fees, latency, and greater throughput while providing a world-class developer and user experience. Integration with The Graph on Optimistic Ethereum means developers building on Optimism will have greater access to on chain data. This will make it incredibly easy to build new applications and for developers to share open APIs, called subgraphs.
Jing Wang, Founder and CEO of Optimism said:
“The Graph vastly improves data retrieval for Ethereum nodes and is a major part of many project’s toolchains. We are stoked to have critical pieces of infrastructure like The Graph to provide the best foundation possible for innovating on Ethereum.”
Collaboration with Optimism adds incredible value to The Graph’s community of over 20K active developers that have built over 16K subgraphs for applications like Uniswap, Synthetix, Aragon, Gnosis, Balancer, Livepeer, DAOstack, AAVE, Decentraland, and many others. Together The Graph and Optimism will open the door for more developers to scale Ethereum and the Web3 vision.
“With Optimistic Ethereum supported by The Graph, developers will be able to unlock scalability and interoperability on Ethereum like never before. Building subgraphs on Optimistic Ethereum will accelerate high-quality dapp development and improve the end-user experience with efficient transactions and data access.”

About The Graph
is the source of data and information for the decentralized internet. As the original decentralized data marketplace that introduced and standardized subgraphs, The Graph has become web3’s method of indexing and accessing blockchain data. Since its launch in 2018, tens of thousands of developers have for dapps across 70+ blockchains - including Ethereum, Solana, Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, Polygon, Celo, Fantom, Gnosis, and Avalanche.
As demand for data in web3 continues to grow, The Graph enters a with a more expansive vision including new data services and query languages, ensuring the decentralized protocol can serve any use case - now and into the future.
