ep. 184 - Dapps ARE NOT Decentralized! SQD Fixes that with Web3's Only Indexing Juggernaut

from The Kus · host The Kus

Dive into the future of Web3 with SQD (formerly SubSquid) co-founders Marcel and Dimitri on Space Monkeys! Discover how SQD is transforming blockchain data indexing with a decentralized, permissionless network—think of it as the "Bitcoin of data." From powering DeFi apps, wallets, and analytics to supporting Polkadot’s ecosystem and beyond (GMX, PancakeSwap, and more), SQD’s innovative approach is 200x more efficient than traditional RPCs. Learn how their token stakes bandwidth, not payments, and why decentralization matters for the next wave of blockchain innovation.
