Nervos integrates with Covalent to make its blockchain data easier to access

Nervos, a collection of crypto protocols and public blockchain ecosystem, today announced it will be integrating both its testnet and mainnet with Covalent, a provider of indexing solutions for blockchains.

With the integration, Nervos is expanding the availability of data on the network and simplifying the experience for developers building on Polyjuice, an Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatible layer running on top of Nervos CKB, who need access to reliable, high-quality data.

Every day, hundreds of millions of transactions take place across the entire blockchain ecosystem, providing a wealth of deep, granular, and historical data that can be used to not only help developers and teams improve their projects and applications but also enhance interconnectivity in the space.

However, the data behind those transactions are not always easily accessible, and in some cases, is nearly impossible to extract.

To address this issue, Covalent provides a unified API to bring full transparency to assets across all blockchain networks. Its dataset supports 25B+ transactions, 30,000+ price feeds, and 200,000+ smart contracts for querying.

The blockchain data available includes:

  • Token balances per address
  • Historical transactions per address
  • Historical prices by address and ticker symbol
  • Decoded log events

Using the Covalent API, developers can pull Nervos mainnet data and easily access the network via the unified API by changing the chainId parameter.

“Both Nervos Network and Covalent share a vision of a global economy that is public and decentralized. At Covalent, we are getting there by building an accessible Web3 data layer and indexing Nervos which is making meaningful changes in creating universal blockchain solutions.”
– Ganesh Swami, Co-Founder & CEO at Covalent

Further, Covalent will soon be launching a campaign for developers building with Nervos.

“Our integration with Covalent significantly enhances the developer experience on Nervos, which is one of our main priorities as we grow our ecosystem and open up access to our multi-chain solutions. We look forward to seeing how our community members use this new tool and resource.”
– Kevin Wang, Co-Founder at Nervos
