Last week at #Consensus confirmed a thesis I developed over two years ago: we are heading towards a โworld of thousands of blockchainsโ. Let me explain.

The #crypto space can seem daunting with hundreds of active blockchains, but this diversity is a crucial strength of #web3. Each #blockchain serves a unique purpose, from crypto transactions to gaming and digital art, fostering innovation and opportunities. This variety drives technological advancements and allows customized solutions to meet specific needs.

Some might argue that we donโt need thousands of chains, and I wonโt necessarily disagree. Some suggested sticking with just #Bitcoin, #Ethereum, and #Solana at Consensus. However, the reality is vastly different. Itโs easier than ever to launch new chains, amplified by tech stacks like Optimism Foundation Superchains, The Arbitrum Foundation Orbit, zkSync Stack, Polygon Labs CDK, and Rollup-as-a-Service platforms like Conduit, Gelato Network, Caldera, or AltLayer. Last week alone, I met with 16 blockchains set to launch in the next 60 days, including the exciting Gravity chain from Galxe.

Ironically, while an ocean of public blockchain data exists, itโs practically inaccessible. This dichotomy has always baffled me. With more blockchains emerging every week, the data becomes more fragmented and inconsistent.

Our mission at Dune is to make crypto data accessible. Known as the source of truth in the blockchain industry, we realized at the end of last year that we werenโt covering the entire crypto data landscape with only a dozen chains. In January, we committed to truly supporting our industry and community by becoming the central platform for all crypto data. We now support 30+ blockchains and 1000+ protocols, but weโre not stopping there.

Our newly launched product, Dune Catalyst, aims to bring 100 new blockchains to #Dune before #DuneCon (part of DevCon, November - Bangkok). If you want to see your blockchain on Dune, tag your chain below with its founders or follow the link in the comments.
