Why Antelope chains?
We’re super stoked to announce that we’re adding the Firehose and Substreams service for Antelope chains because they offer so many opportunities for web3 builders.
Antelope blockchains have:
- High-speed performance with minimal latency
- Insane reliability, with virtually no downtime
- Robust tools and interfaces for a user-friendly experience
- Feeless transactions
- The highest level of security

What about dfuse?
You may be familiar with dfuse, an open source platform for searching and processing blockchain data. dfuse uses Firehose, just like Substreams, but dfuse has limitations in reliability and cost. Firehose and Substreams are more scalable, faster, and cheaper.
So if you’re using dfuse, you’re going to want to explore this new service and switch.
What other chains does Pinax support?
You can see all supported chains on our website. Plus we’re adding more all the time.
For some general information about Firehose and Substreams, check out our initial post that introduced the free service, Pinax-Supported Chains for Firehose and Substreams.
