Unvest has strategically collaborated with The Graph to leverage its decentralized network of Indexers across multiple blockchain networks. We have successfully deployed new subgraphs onto their decentralized network, transitioning away from the hosted service.
This move aligns deeply with Unvest's commitment to decentralization, reflecting our core values while bringing numerous benefits to the token management services and dapps integrated into the Unvest ecosystem.
Blockchains function as immutable, distributed databases where transactions are additively and sequentially stored. Querying data directly from the blockchain can be resource-intensive, expensive, and time-consuming due to the sheer volume and decentralized nature of the transactions.
Traditionally, one might construct a dedicated server to process these transactions, store the data in a separate database, and build an API endpoint for querying purposes. However, this approach requires extensive resources, ongoing maintenance, and inherently introduces a single point of failure, contradicting the essential security tenets of decentralization.
In contrast, The Graph Network operates as a highly efficient decentralized indexing protocol. It scans the blockchain for events defined in preset mappings within a subgraph and then collects, maps, and stores this data effectively. Through the GraphQL API, The Graph allows for efficient querying of this data, significantly enhancing the performance, uptime, and stability of applications that rely on it.
Unvest utilizes The Graph extensively to enhance our suite of web3 services that include custom vesting, liquidity locks, token creation, staking, and more. Our primary subgraphs are designed to map VestingTokens deployed by the VestingTokenFactory across multiple networks such as Ethereum, Optimism, BNB Smart Chain (BSC), Polygon, Avalanche, Arbitrum, Base, and Blast.
Currently, Unvest employs subgraphs for:
Our subgraphs are integral to the services we offer, ensuring that our dApp provides seamless and reliable token management solutions.
By transitioning to The Graph's decentralized network, Unvest can eliminate single points of failure and avoid relying on a centralized point of authority. This move is in harmony with core web3 principles, reflecting a commitment to true decentralization.
Shared values of decentralization are at the heart of Unvest and The Graph ecosystem, as both organizations advocate for the rise of decentralized data infrastructures. This technical collaboration not only enhances the technical robustness of Unvest’s token management services but also reinforces our dedication to building a decentralized future.

In conclusion, our collaboration with The Graph marks a significant step forward in providing reliable, decentralized, and efficient web3 services for token management, ensuring that Unvest remains at the forefront of innovation in the blockchain space.
