thirdweb Insight Beta Release

Toomas Oosalu

We are excited to announce the initial release of thirdweb Insight - an open source indexer and API for any EVM.

Provide an RPC URL and index the whole blockchain (or choose a range), including all blocks, transactions, logs and traces. It will keep up with the chain in real time and keep indexing as the chain progresses.

During our internal testing we achieved a indexing speed of up to 65k blocks per minute. However, this speed depends on the performance of the RPC and heaviness of the chain.

The service is built with the requirement of only serving complete and correct data. Once the block range is indexed, you can be sure that it contains all the transactions and logs that there are without missing any gaps. This is especially important for querying data aggregations like token balances.

The indexer is designed to recover itself in case of any failures or an unreachable RPC. It will not serve incomplete data and will continue from where the error occurred, once the error has been solved.

The service exposes an HTTP API to query transactions and logs complete with aggregations. Here are just a few examples of what you can query using the API:

• Current and historic token balances
• Historic transactions of a specific wallet
• Transactions to a specific contract
• and much more

This initial release of thirdweb Insight lays the groundwork for a performant indexing service and API. We look forward to your feedback and contributions as we continue to enhance and expand the functionality of it. Thank you for your support!
