Participants include: @evabeylin @bourgetalexndre @yanivgraph @azacharyf @theklineventure @matthewdarwin @undefinedza @UriGoldshtein @v_for_vincent @TwentyTwoNode Alexis Asseman w/ @semioticlabs 🎥 Watch now:

A new roadmap. A New Era of The Graph 🗺️ The Graph’s new roadmap introduces a bold and transformative vision for the future of The Graph! The new R&D roadmap details an expansion of The Graph’s ability to serve web3’s growing demands for data access, while better serving builders and protocol contributors, and improving the overall simplicity and efficiency of the network. After three years of serving builders, The Graph Network is mature, reliable, and performant. The Graph ecosystem has followed through on its commitment to democratize access to blockchain data while also establishing subgraphs as a web3 standard. But The Graph’s innovation journey doesn’t end there. The New Era of The Graph is organized into five core objectives: 1️⃣ World of Data Services: Expanding to provide new data services beyond subgraphs to deliver a rich market of data on the network, serving novel use cases for data scientists and more. This will include more data sources, new query languages, and support for LLMs. 2️⃣ Developer Empowerment: Supporting developers through enhanced DevEx and tooling by introducing streamlined billing, clear pricing models, a new free query plan, and reduced gas fees. A more SaaS-like experience for devs, without compromising on decentralization! 3️⃣ Protocol Evolution & Resiliency: Delivering improvements resulting in a more resilient, flexible, and simple protocol, including updates to delegation. 4️⃣ Optimized Indexer Performance: Boosting network performance with improved Indexer tooling and operational capabilities to deliver increased scalability, reduce costs, and enhanced network reliability. 5️⃣ Interconnected Graph of Data: Creating tools for composable data and a global, organized knowledge graph – interlinking open data and making it easier to build upon. The new roadmap sets in motion an exciting evolution in web3 data infrastructure. In a phased rollout, The Graph will introduce many new features and benefits, including the integration of new data services, new query languages, enhanced developer tooling, improved UX + UI, alongside greater protocol efficiency and resilience. As this new era unfolds, The Graph crystallizes as the connective tissue across the many layers of the web3 stack, evolving into a comprehensive, interwoven graph of data equipped to serve every project dreamt up by web3’s innovators.

A big announcement is coming 👀 🗓️ Mark your calendars — Nov 7th! The Graph is entering a new era. Are you ready?

The Graph is a decentralized data marketplace powering access to blockchain data 📊 The Graph Network empowers independent network participants to contribute to serving data in a robust & reliable way. GRT makes it all possible by rewarding actions that are aligned with the data democratization goals of the network. Here are 5 ways you can use GRT on The Graph Network: 1️⃣ Delegate to Indexers 🌱 Delegators identify effective Indexers and enable them to serve more queries on the network by delegating GRT to them, allowing them to support more subgraphs on The Graph. In return, Delegators earn GRT rewards as well, which varies depending on the Indexer. 2️⃣ Query blockchain data 🔍 Blockchain data is public by default. But accessing it without subgraphs can be difficult, especially if you have complex needs. You can easily use GRT to make queries to subgraphs published on The Graph Network. You can find available subgraphs on The Graph Explorer, or if it doesn’t exist, you can build your own to index data from your smart contract! 3️⃣ Become an Indexer 🖥️ The Graph Network is powered by hundreds of independent Indexers operating indexing nodes around the world. In order to begin serving subgraph queries, Indexers must stake a certain amount of GRT on the network. Once an Indexer has begun staking on the network, they can begin serving queries to earn query fees paid by data consumers and indexing rewards from the protocol. 4️⃣ Curate your own subgraph ⭐ In order to encourage Indexers to support your subgraph, developers can curate their subgraph using GRT. The higher the curation signal on your subgraph, the more likely Indexers will begin supporting it and serving queries to it! To streamline the curation process, Subgraph Studio enables developers to curate their subgraph in the same transaction that publishes it to The Graph Network! 5️⃣ Curate someone else’s subgraph 👥 Subgraphs can be curated by anyone and everyone! If you find an exciting subgraph on The Graph Explorer, then you’re free to use GRT to add additional curation signal to it! 10% of all query fees that a subgraph earns are distributed amongst its Curators. This option is even more exciting on @arbitrum as all Curators earn a similar amount of query fees regardless of how early/late they are to curate a subgraph. Please only ever purchase the GRT you intend to use in The Graph Network.

The Graph’s inaugural Datapalooza is only 14 days away & today we’re announcing the first speaker - @HopeYen11 from @graphopsxyz! Come explore the future of web3 as Hope presents on how to build a Gossip network 🤓 Stay tuned for info on additional speakers & presentations. More details below ⬇️

The Graph consistently has high engagement at hackathons all over the world because devs recognize the value of low cost, easy to use, performant & decentralized data infrastructure. Here's a recent example: The Graph was one of the top 5 most implemented techs at @ETHRome ⚡️

GraphGuru is a new initiative from @TheGraphIndia, an Indian community of @GraphAdvocates that's working to build The Graph's presence at Indian universities 🧑‍🎓 They're onboarding the next generation of devs to web3 & helping them build dapps using The Graph! Check it out⬇️
