TL;DR: Ricky shared his progress on indexer operations automation tools, including an Indexer Management Interface and a Curation Signal Allocation Optimizer. He showed several demo videos, including deleting subgraphs, quality of service metrics, and real-time ISA score. The session outlined a seven-step roadmap, with the ultimate goal being the integration of knowledge/note taking, AI agents, and a coding environment, all…

TL;DR: Rem from Edge & Node discussed the proposal for evolving The Graph protocol economics. The proposal aims to better meet participant needs, with this discussion focusing on consumers and providers (indexers), particularly aligning incentives with value delivery and transitioning to a demand-driven network. A key change involves having gateways play a larger role in matching indexers to consumer demands…
TL;DR: Major indexers, including Pinax and Upgrade Indexer, have completed their TAP migration. Multiple indexers reported issues with Graph Node v0.36.0, including PostgreSQL performance problems and migration difficulties. It was noted that v0.36.0 is not yet ratified for production use. Upcoming sessions will feature Yaniv Tal discussing GRC-20: Knowledge Graph, Ricky on indexer analytics, and Vince covering Kubernetes and Launchpad….
TL;DR: During IOH #185’s open discussion, the focus was on the Timeline Aggregation Protocol (TAP) migration status, which has reached approximately 82% of queries with two major indexers still pending. A key highlight was the discussion of a zero-downtime upgrade strategy using reverse proxy routing for the Upgrade Indexer, which is critical as it serves as a single point of…
Pinax was in Shanghai to help The Graph take students through an on-chain data workshop. TL;DR: Pinax helped The Graph present an on-chain data workshop at Fudan University during Shanghai Blockchain Week, introducing students to web3 and AI technologies. The event featured presentations on decentralized data architecture, on-chain data streams, and subgraph building, and included a hackathon. Pinax was on…
TL;DR: An inspector in The Graph ecosystem discovered and reported an indexer submitting incorrect Proof of Indexing (POI) for unsynced subgraphs. The arbitration process resulted in a slashing penalty for the disputed indexer. This case highlights the crucial role of vigilant community members in maintaining the reliability and fairness of The Graph Network. Imagine uncovering faulty behavior in a decentralized…
Explore updates on Substreams tools, Graph Horizon, and the Subgraph Service. TL;DR: Core Dev Call #31 highlighted three key updates for The Graph: – Substreams Codegen: New tools to simplify Substreams-powered subgraph development. – Graph Horizon (GIP-0066): A modular protocol for diverse data services. – Subgraph Service (GIP-0068): Major improvements to subgraph indexing. Core Dev Calls are meetings where core…
TL;DR: The open discussion section covered three main topics:- Gustavo from Semiotic Labs presented updates on indexer-rs and TAP, including new configuration options and features for indexer-service and indexer-agent.- Ricky from Edge & Node shared a tutorial on data analytics for indexers, demonstrating tools for automating indexer operations and analyzing subgraph performance.- Guillaume and Matthew from Pinax introduced a Kubernetes…
The Graph Builders Office Hours #50 featured a subgraph showcase highlighting new and upcoming features. TL;DR: Learn about the latest advancements in subgraph technology, including timeseries aggregations, indexed argument filtering, and parallelized ETH calls, while also discussing the future potential of modular, reusable subgraphs and improvements to IPFS robustness within The Graph ecosystem. The Graph ecosystem is evolving rapidly, offering…
TL;DR: Indexers discuss moving to the new payment system (TAP), that they need to wait for the next indexer agent release before moving, and why not everyone should move at the same time. They also talked about the state of indexer documentation and the need to have one place to retrieve up-to-date information that aligns with releases. IOH welcomed two…
