We’re now supporting Citrea, the first-ever and only execution layer that settles on the Bitcoin network!

SubQuery’s indexing capabilities empower Citrea developers to efficiently manage and query on-chain data, speeding up development and iterations, and enhancing the security of on-chain finance with Bitcoin.

Developers building on Citrea can now harness SubQuery’s versatile, high-speed, open, and decentralized data indexing solution. This empowers blockchain developers with crucial tools to efficiently manage and query on-chain data for their protocols and applications.

SubQuery simplifies the intricacies of backend operations, providing developers with a tailor-made API. This enables them to focus on product development and enhancing user experiences, without the need to allocate resources towards constructing their indexing solutions.

> “Integrating SubQuery into our platform provides builders with faster and easier data access, enhancing their ability to navigate our growing ecosystem and build more efficiently on Bitcoin as the base layer for onchain finance. We are excited to further leverage SubQuery’s capabilities!”

— Esad Yusuf Atik, Founder and CTO of Chainway Labs, the company building Citrea

We’re always striving to provide developers with the most comprehensive and efficient indexing experience possible, including the open-source SDK, tools, documentation, and developer support that the SubQuery ecosystem provides. Citrea is also supported in SubQuery’s enterprise level managed service, which provides enterprise-level infrastructure hosting and handles hundreds of millions of requests each day.

Furthermore, with the upcoming launch of the SubQuery Network, we are poised to provide Citrea developers with their first ever decentralised indexing solution.

> “We are excited to be able to empower developers on Citrea, Bitcoin’s first ZK Rollup with our advanced APIs and tools. Let’s drive innovation in Web3 together!”

— Sam Zou, Founder and CEO of SubQuery

Why Use SubQuery?

SubQuery makes it easy to build a custom API for your dApp or smart contracts in minutes, providing clean indexed data to any service. The excellent SubQuery developer experience is flexible, with the ability to make external API calls or import external libraries from within your mapping functions, and better controls to run your projects in your own infrastructure with automated DOS (denial of service) mitigation controls. Additionally, we have yet to make plans to sunset our managed service.

SubQuery is designed to be fast. This adds up when you’re indexing millions of ledgers, and is something to consider when choosing your indexer. SubQuery achieves this by using multi-threading and optimisation of the store to reduce costly database writes. With faster sync times, developers can iterate faster and deliver features to market quicker.
