The Graph

What is The Graph (GRT)? Simply put, The Graph helps pull and organize in-depth information from the Ethereum blockchain. The Graph incorporates a token known as GRT. Several GRT use cases exist in The Graph’s ecosystem, including staking The Graph token.

How does The Graph (GRT) work?

The Graph makes blockchain information more available and accessible. As a decentralized protocol, The Graph takes information from smart contracts and gathers that data into APIs called subgraphs. Each subgraph comes with a description of the information it contains, called its subgraph manifest. These subgraphs can be queried for data. In short, The Graph’s system takes blockchain data that is difficult to find or access and compiles it into organized stacks of information that can be queried. GRT is a token built on the Ethereum blockchain that incentivizes The Graph’s system, or network.

Delegators, Curators and Indexers help The Graph’s system function. Staking GRT, Indexers run nodes, collecting rewards from indexing and querying. GRT owners can delegate GRT to Indexers and receive profits proportional to their delegated GRT. Curators give credit to subgraphs, essentially deciding which ones to cast a vote of confidence toward. This is done by assigning GRT to a given subgraph, which, in this system, is called signaling. Curators also earn rewards, pending their decisions.

GRT crypto price

GRT is an ERC-20 token used within The Graph’s system. Wondering how to buy The Graph (GRT)? GRT trades on many different digital asset exchanges. The GRT total supply is shown above, as is a GRT to USD live price, the GRT marketcap and more. The Graph price chart above shows The Graph price today as well as price history for The Graph, although for greater accuracy, GRT should be referenced when talking about price information, as The Graph project/protocol itself does not directly have a price.
