Discover our brand new app, your swiss-knife to master the art of delegation and curation for The Graph ecosystem.
[Update: January 2022 — App Version: v4]
In this article I want to show you the latest updates on the Graphtronauts app, the best App to master delegation and curation for The Graph ecosystem.
If you do not know what is The Graph, and why it is the next big thing in the technology industry, you can read an informative article here:
Here you are the link to our app and below some nice features we recently introduced:
Before starting, I want to reassure you that the Graphtronauts App is a legit app, also supported by The Graph, you can check this on numerous tweets like this:
Dark mode is here!
You can now switch from light to dark mode, both gorgeous themes.
Cost of gas for delegating your GRT tokens
Our users are often complaining about the high cost of gas for the delegation. What we do every day in our community is also to educate people on how to save on transactions fees, and specifically the best time of the day to delegate. But we wanted to do more, for this reason we introduced the ability to check directly on our app how much you will end up paying in transaction fees for your delegation.
We also publish a weekly fee chart showing how the cost of gas changes during the week, and based on the different time of the day.
One more thing, you can also figure out how many days it will take to cover the cost of gas for the transaction.
Compare your Indexers
When you need to choose your Indexer, you want to have a side-by-side comparison amongst a short list of indexers, for this reason we have introduced a very useful Compare feature that allows you to select up to five indexers and see their main parameters and statistics side-by-side.
Once you click on compare, you will see the selected indexers side-by-side with all the most important parameters and reward per 1,000 GRT.
Indexers’ reviews
We have a new redesigned profile page for our Indexers with all the important data and parameters, plus all the info about their delegators and all the allocations (active/closed).
From the indexer profile page, you can now see the list of all Delegators and the most important data.
Always from the profile page you can now see also the list of all Allocations, both Active and Closed.
From the profile page you can also submit a Review. Our reviews are one of the most important traits of our community because we understand that APY is not the only important metric to evaluate an indexer. Most of our community members love to interact with their indexers and this is also noticed by many Telegram channels that belong to our Indexers, where there are always interesting and informative conversations. You can think of our reviews like the ‘TripAdvisor for Delegators’.
Then, you need to sign the transaction with your wallet address to verify that you are delegating to the selected indexer.
Finally, you can leave a review by specifying a Rating (from one to five stars) and optionally, you can also leave some Comments.
To submit a review, you must be a delegator of the selected indexer and you need to have been a delegator for at least 30 days. This is to prevent people submitting reviews without not actually being a delegator to an indexer.
If you try to make a review to an indexer without being a delegator, or if you are delegating for less than 30 days, you will get this message.
Mobile friendly
Our website was already mobile friendly, but with our new app we wanted to raise the bar and give our users the best experience when they are on their mobile devices.
Mobile Delegation
One of the benefits of using our Graphtronauts App is to help you choose the indexer that best fits your requirements. Once you found the indexer whom you want to delegate, you can do it directly without leaving the app, by clicking on the Delegate button. From here you will be redirected to ‘Graph Explorer’ where you can start the delegation process.
If you want to refresh all the four steps needed to delegate your GRT tokens, you can check this article or watch this video on YouTube.
