- (1888PressRelease) June 15, 2022 - We are excited to announce our newest partnership — Astar! Covalent brings an excellent indexing solution to Astar. Providing developers with reliable, high-quality data that will allow them to build faster and easier is another step towards making Astar a better blockchain.
Future initiatives that will roll out in later stages include:
- Decentralizing the Astar Network data stack for redundancy and validator incentives
- The ability for developers to build their own endpoints in the chain
- Covalent's analyst mode — enabling developers to write SQL to build bespoke dashboards
Developers now can access Astar mainnet data with Covalent's Unified API. The data available includes:
- Token balances per address
- Get NFT transactions for contract
- Historical transactions per address
- Get all contract metadata
Covalent brings full transparency and visibility to assets that span over 32 blockchains and is used and trusted by over 27,000 developers and counting! The dataset supports 25B+ transactions, 30,000+ price feeds, and 200,000 smart contracts for querying. A multichain can be enabled in minutes with Covalent's Unified API by changing the chain ID parameter.
To celebrate this partnership we'll be doing a surprise giveaway, stay tuned and make sure you're following both Astar (https://twitter.com/AstarNetwork) & Covalents (https://twitter.com/Covalent_HQ) Twitter
"One of the key features needed in launching a smart contract platform is an indexer. Covalent is one of the most used indexers out there and already offering great services to our builders on Shiden, our canary network on Kusama. Astar builders will find Covalent a great fit for creating the next generation dApps with innovative features."
-Maarten Henskens — Head of Ecosystem Development.
