Hello, blockchain frens and #BUIDLers! As we gear up for our exciting workshop on Thursday, Sep 21, 11 AM PDT, we thought it would be helpful to provide an overview and a set of resources to ensure you get the most out of this session.

Introduction

Blockchain, with its decentralized nature, brings forth a new era of applications and services. However, developers often face hurdles when attempting to retrieve Web3 data. At this workshop, we’ll discuss these challenges and introduce you to the solutions PARSIQ has developed to address them.

Challenges

Here are the challenges developers face in Web3 data retrieval:

  1. Latency and Slow Response: Network congestion can delay data retrieval, hindering real-time applications.
  2. Data Integrity and Consistency: Developers often grapple with data inconsistencies caused by network disruptions or forks.
  3. Inconsistent APIs: Different blockchains offer varied APIs, each with its unique limitations.
  4. Reliability Gaps: Existing APIs may suffer from outages or poor performance, impacting application reliability.
  5. Complex Querying and Filtering: Crafting queries for specific data points can be daunting and error-prone.
  6. Lack of Historical Data: Some APIs might not provide enough historical data, which is crucial for analysis and research.

This can stall the development process, slow down innovation, and lead to unreliable applications.

🌊 Tsunami API

Meet the Tsunami API by PARSIQ — our answer to the above challenges. It ensures data retrieval from blockchains is fast, accurate, and reliable.
