New Integration Expands Dune’s Coverage Across the Entire Polkadot Ecosystem, Delivering Unmatched Onchain Analytics
Zurg, Switzerland, September 11th 2024 – Dune, the leading platform for onchain analytics, announces the integration of 50+ parachains from the Polkadot ecosystem. With this expansion, Dune solidifies its position as the most comprehensive data hub for Polkadot, offering unparalleled insights and analytics for developers, investors, and data enthusiasts alike.
Earlier this year, Dune launched support for Polkadot, Kusama, and six parachains. Now, the platform takes a major step forward by expanding coverage to include the entire Polkadot ecosystem. This integration enables users to explore, analyze, and visualize all onchain activities across Polkadot in real time, making Dune the go-to destination for data-driven decision-making.
Polkadot’s ecosystem, known for its diverse and innovative parachains, generates a vast amount of data. Navigating this complex network can be a challenge. Dune’s expanded support simplifies access to crucial onchain data, empowering users to gain deeper insights into Polkadot’s dynamic ecosystem.
The newly integrated parachains include Moonbeam, which specializes in smart contracts and cross-chain DeFi; Acala, known as Polkadot’s hub for decentralized finance; Phala, which focuses on privacy-first DePIN and AI solutions; and Mythos, a protocol bringing AAA decentralized gaming and hugely popular franchises to Polkadot. These integrations, along with dozens of others, position Dune as the most expansive source for Polkadot’s onchain analytics, allowing users to track transaction flows, analyze DeFi activity, and monitor developments in gaming and NFTs—all within a single, comprehensive platform.
FredrikHaga, CEO of Dune shared, “Polkadot and its Substrate-based chains form a vast and complex ecosystem. With this integration of 50+ parachains, our goal is to make that complexity easier to navigate. We want to give people a clear, accessible view of what’s happening across the network, so they can focus on innovation and building with confidence.”
This milestone integration was achieved through Dune’s partnership with Colorful Notion. Together, the teams developed a streamlined process for integrating new parachains, ensuring Dune’s data remains comprehensive, accurate, and reliable.
Dune’s integration also includes enhanced functionality through the Dune API, allowing users to convert any query into a flexible API endpoint. This feature offers greater flexibility for developers and analysts, enabling them to seamlessly incorporate Dune’s data into their own applications.
