Understanding Ethereum logs is hard. It requires the right ABIs to parse the hashed function calls. To know how many ABIs to download to maximize log coverage, I analyzed all ETH logs from block 1 to 15,300,000. TLDR: Top 1% contracts = 96%

Glad it's useful! :-) > btw did you verify (PoW) blocks using the nonce? I've validated the data and checksummed while exporting from Geth. But, perhaps can validate data when serving it as well. Any pointers / articles on

Oh, --compressed is is a great point, thanks. Updating the blog. I wanted to stick to JSON -- it's just the easiest for everyone to work with. And it compresses well, so all good.

It doesn't have the states yet. So, equivalent of full nodes -- block, txns, receipts, logs (no traces, states). But, could be extended to include those, if needed.

Just want to set the record straight here, AirTree folks were incredibly helpful. If offered, I'd take money from them again in a heartbeat.

This is a significantly altered fork of Dgraph. Outserv is purely focused on providing an amazing GraphQL + Custom Business Logic experience. It doesn't provide DQL mutations, and the DQL queries are marked deprecated and would go away

(author here -- just saw this comment) If someone were to modify the code to not charge for the usage, that'd be a violation of the license. Sure, smaller violations might not be, but any significant violation can be enforced. This is

Author here. I'll be launching the project which uses this license next week, which would make it clear how the monetization module works. Stay tuned!

The thing about Dgraph (and potentially other graph DBs) is that it knows the "cardinality" of the relationship, because of the way it stores data. So, it can make judgement calls on the best path to execute a query. I might have

[Author of Dgraph] Do try it out. I don't consider Dgraph to be a "NoSQL" DB. Typical NoSQL DBs are document DBs. Dgraph is unique in that it is able to use graph to deconstruct a JSON document, and re-construct it at query t
