Dune, a leading web3 data analytics platform, has recently launched Dune Catalyst, an enterprise solution created to streamline blockchain data integrations. This new offering aims to help blockchain teams make their data accessible to the world’s largest crypto data community through either a fully managed or hosted solution. Those interested in utilizing Dune Catalyst can schedule a call through the Dune website to get started.
The rise of various Layer 2 and Layer 3 networks, such as the OP stack and Arbitrum Orbit, has led to the development of numerous new blockchains. Despite the availability of public data on these blockchains, communities often lack the tools to easily access or analyze it. This is where Dune Catalyst comes in, as it enables quicker integration with Dune, ultimately enhancing data accessibility for emerging blockchains.
Fredrik Haga, CEO and co-founder of Dune, has emphasized the importance of a multichain future, noting that Dune Catalyst provides a new data structure standard that helps blockchains make their data publicly accessible faster, without being hindered by data indexers’ backlogs. The goal is to support the growth of communities and facilitate the launching of new applications within the blockchain ecosystem.
Dune Catalyst is available in two configurations: a fully managed integration solution and a self-serve hosted solution. The fully managed solution offers a comprehensive service that covers everything from data setup to continuous management, while the hosted solution allows EVM blockchains to connect their data to Dune via Catalyst’s standardized APIs.
Projects like Degen, a Layer 3 on Farcaster, and Mode Network, a DeFi-centric Layer 2, are among the first to utilize Catalyst’s standardized APIs. The recent launch of Degen’s Layer 3 network on Arbitrum Orbit and Mode Network’s release of the MODE token have provided users with access to in-depth data insights through Dune’s platform, leading to improved visibility into network growth.
Dune will be hosting its annual conference, DuneCon, alongside DevCon 2024 on November 11, 2024, in Bangkok, Thailand. This event will bring together data enthusiasts and blockchain experts, with notable speakers including Sandy Peng, Co-Founder of Scroll, Stani Kulechov, Founder of AAVE, and Jess Houlgrave, CEO of WalletConnect. Those interested in attending can visit the Dune website for more information on Dune Catalyst and apply online for free tickets to DuneCon.
