The public good to provide deep, granular and historical blockchain data via an open, decentralized protocol. Built for modularity and extensibility.
One API, One Billion Possibilities
Progressive Decentralization
The Covalent Unified API is the industry-leading approach to access blockchain data.
Battled-tested by 15,000+ devs and powering 500+ applications with data from 28 blockchains.
Covalent is being re-imagined as a community-owned and community-run protocol.
Focus on read-scalability
Blockchains are purported to be public, but deep, granular and historical data remains prohibitively difficult to access.
Read scalability via the Covalent Network will bring true transparency and visibility to digital assets.
Unified Data Model
Covalent's data model is a unified, canonical analytical storage representation of all blockchain data. All data is normalized into a single polymorphic representation, regardless of the source blockchain.
This is the Block Specimen.
Modular & Extensible
The Covalent Network is designed to be extensible to all blockchains. By separating out the data storage layer from the block execution and distributed consensus functionality - anyone can accurately re-create blockchain data without access to blockchain client software.
Governed by $CQT
The Covalent Query Token (CQT) is the native token of the network wherein all data proof and query settlements are denominated in this currency.
CQT's function can be broken down into staking and governance responsibility.
The Covalent Network
The Web 3 Decentralized Indexing & Query protocol
The public good to provide deep, granular and historical blockchain data via an open, decentralized protocol. Built for modularity and extensibility.
Testimonials
"Covalent is innovating in a layer often overlooked in the blockchain space, which is data. Covalent’s block specimen are a verifiable representation of external blockchain state and play a key part in enabling consumers of Covalent’s API to efficiently query information from different networks. We are excited to be able to enrich Covalent’s API with data from many of the over 25 networks we support as a node operator by operating a block specimen producer."
"So far, Covalent has significantly enhanced the developer experience on Fantom via their unified API. Now, it's extremely exciting to see the development of the Covalent Network well underway. It will no doubt be a staple in how users access blockchain data."
"Broader Web3 adoption requires great application UX and performant access to backend data, but these have historically been constrained by what the direct node RPCs are able to offer. Covalent’s unique approach not only delivers performance but also access to an enriched multi-chain data set via their unified API. It’s a great fit for Moonbeam developers looking to create next-generation multi-chain applications."
"Decentralized applications and services need fast and reliable access to backend data to deliver seamless experiences competitive with Web 2.0. With its unified API for data across multiple chains, Covalent is well-positioned to support the march toward mass adoption of Web3."
"Covalent API helps simplify access to blockchain data across multiple leading networks, allowing developers to quickly integrate data points for their web3 products. We are extremely excited to be supporting Covalent on this journey and look forward to the launch of their API marketplace."
"Covalent has become a critical piece of infrastructure for dozens of blockchains, hundreds of applications, and thousands of developers who rely on indexed chain data. Transitioning this infrastructure into a community owned and run public good is a natural next step towards the web3 vision."
