Dune, a trailblazing web3 data analytics platform, has announced the launch of Dune Catalyst, a revolutionary enterprise solution designed to simplify and expedite blockchain data integration. This innovative offering empowers blockchain teams to make their data accessible to the world's largest crypto data community through either a fully managed or hosted solution, thereby fostering a more interconnected and transparent blockchain ecosystem.

The proliferation of Layer 2 and Layer 3 networks, exemplified by the OP stack and Arbitrum Orbit, has led to the creation of numerous new blockchains. However, despite the availability of public data on these blockchains, communities often face challenges in accessing or analyzing this data due to a lack of effective tools. Dune Catalyst addresses this issue by facilitating seamless integration with Dune, thereby enhancing data accessibility for burgeoning blockchains.

According to Fredrik Haga, CEO and co-founder of Dune, "The future is undoubtedly multichain. By providing a new data structure standard, Dune Catalyst helps burgeoning blockchains make their data publicly accessible faster, without the delays caused by data indexers' backlogs, which in turn helps communities grow and support the launch of new applications."

Dune Catalyst is available in two configurations: a fully managed integration solution and a self-serve hosted solution. The fully managed solution offers a comprehensive service that handles everything from data setup to continuous management, while the hosted solution allows EVM blockchains to bring their data to Dune via Catalyst's standardized APIs.

Among the first projects to leverage Catalyst's standardized APIs are Degen, a new Layer 3 on Farcaster, and Mode Network, a modular DeFi-centric Layer 2. Degen's recent launch of its Layer 3 network on Arbitrum Orbit and Mode Network's MODE token release have enabled users to access comprehensive data insights through Dune's platform, providing better visibility into network growth.

Jacek Trocinski, Founder of Degen, expressed excitement about the partnership with Dune, highlighting the benefits of unlocking data analytics for their community. This partnership will allow Degen to access the latest trends and insights on their chain, supporting ecosystem growth. James Ross, Core Contributor of Mode, noted that with over 50 protocols deployed and over $600 million in total value locked (TVL) on Mode, the integration with Dune Catalyst will provide their community with instant comprehensive visibility into token performance and network expansion.

Dune will host its annual conference, DuneCon, alongside DevCon 2024 on November 11, 2024, in Bangkok, Thailand. The event will bring together a community of data enthusiasts and blockchain experts, with speakers including Sandy Peng, Co-Founder of Scroll, Stani Kulechov, Founder of AAVE, and Jess Houlgrave, CEO of WalletConnect. This conference promises to be a groundbreaking event, shaping the future of blockchain technology and data analytics.
