[[1]](#cite-id-T5uKMYnW6A) [[2]](#cite-id-pEHJJGzvQw)\n\n$$widget0 [YOUTUBE@VID](FbrKdRcEO3Q)$$\n\n# Overview\n\nSubQuery, co-founded by Ian He and James Bailey in 2021, is a decentralized infrastructure marketplace that aims to support [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) applications. Initially focused on data indexing, it has expanded to provide services such as RPC, indexing, and AI application frameworks.\n\nThe platform supports nearly 300 [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) ecosystems and seeks to assist developers in building scalable [dApps](https://iq.wiki/wiki/decentralized-application) without the complexity of managing backend systems. SubQuery offers an open-source network for RPC and indexed data, along with a Data Indexer for custom [Web3](https://iq.wiki/wiki/web3) [APIs](https://iq.wiki/wiki/apis) and an AI Apps framework for decentralized AI development. [[1]](#cite-id-T5uKMYnW6A) [[2]](#cite-id-pEHJJGzvQw) [[3]](#cite-id-JVzR42JWaR)\n\n# SubQuery Network\n\nThe SubQuery Network is a decentralized infrastructure that aims to simplify blockchain data management. It facilitates decentralized indexers that structure data into [APIs](https://iq.wiki/wiki/apis) for applications such as [DeFi](https://iq.wiki/wiki/defi) dashboards and explorers, seeking to improve [dApp](https://iq.wiki/wiki/decentralized-application) performance with faster and richer data.\n\nThe network also provides scalable RPC services for reliable blockchain access and supports the development of decentralized AI applications. These services aim to assist developers in creating scalable and data-intensive blockchain solutions without the need to manage complex backend systems. [[1]](#cite-id-T5uKMYnW6A) [[4]](#cite-id-Zud70rJoKF)\n\n# Products\n\n## Blockchain Data Indexing\n\nSubQuery aims to simplify [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) data indexing with its open-source Indexer SDK, which organizes on-chain data into customizable [APIs](https://iq.wiki/wiki/apis). It supports nearly 300 [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) protocols and seeks to enable multi-chain development for applications such as [DeFi](https://iq.wiki/wiki/defi) analytics and [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) explorers.\n\nThe SubQuery Network utilizes a decentralized model with Node Operators to maintain data availability and integrity. This approach aims to provide scalability, reliability, and resistance to censorship for [dApps](https://iq.wiki/wiki/decentralized-application). [[1]](#cite-id-T5uKMYnW6A) [[4]](#cite-id-Zud70rJoKF)\n\n$$widget0 [YOUTUBE@VID](eOYaDDIL3Yg)$$\n\n## Decentralised RPCs\n\nSubQuery offers decentralized RPC services that aim to provide scalable and reliable access to [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) nodes. By distributing requests across multiple providers, it seeks to improve performance, reduce single points of failure, and support secure transactions. The service is compatible with [EVM](https://iq.wiki/wiki/ethereum-virtual-machine-evm) and Substrate chains, including [Base](https://iq.wiki/wiki/base), [Arbitrum](https://iq.wiki/wiki/arbitrum), [BNB](https://iq.wiki/wiki/binance-coin), [Polkadot](https://iq.wiki/wiki/polkadot), and [Kusama](https://iq.wiki/wiki/kusama). [[1]](#cite-id-T5uKMYnW6A) [[4]](#cite-id-Zud70rJoKF)\n\n## AI Apps\n\nSubQuery offers an AI App Framework aimed at enabling the development, deployment, and operation of AI applications in a decentralized environment. The framework seeks to provide scalable, secure AI apps through a sandboxed environment that supports horizontal scaling across the SubQuery Network.\n\nIt integrates Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) files to enhance performance and supports databases such as LanceDB. AI apps can be published to IPFS to ensure data integrity. Developers can extend functionality with external tools and integrate various open-source models, including Ollama LLM and OpenAI, offering flexibility and compatibility with industry standards. [[1]](#cite-id-T5uKMYnW6A) [[4]](#cite-id-Zud70rJoKF)\n\n# Tokenomics\n\n## SubQuery Token ($SQT)\n\nThe SubQuery Token (SQT) functions as a [utility token](https://iq.wiki/wiki/utility-token) within the SubQuery Network. It is designed to incentivize participation and serve as a medium of exchange for transactions within the network. [[5]](#cite-id-CZRpRKFqqA)\n\n## Utility\n\nThe SubQuery Token (SQT) serves several key functions within the SubQuery ecosystem, including:\n- **Staking and Incentives**: Indexers stake (or delegate) SQT to support network operations and may receive rewards for maintaining service reliability.- **Governance**: SQT holders can participate in decentralised governance by proposing and voting on network upgrades.- **Service Payments**: Developers use SQT to pay for indexing, RPC services, and AI hosting, contributing to the token's ongoing demand. [[5]](#cite-id-CZRpRKFqqA)\n## **Allocation**\n\nThe total supply of SubQuery Tokens (SQT) is initially set at 10 billion, with the following allocation:\n- **Public Sale**: 4.4%- **Liquidity**: 5.0%- **Mainnet Incentives**: 8.0%- **Foundation**: 31.9%- **Seed**: 11.7%- **Series A**: 14.5%- **Series B**: 3.2%- **Strategic Round**: 5.5%- **Team & Advisers**: 15.0%\nThe network is inflationary, aiming to support Node Operators during the early launch phase and contribute to the SubQuery Foundation's treasury.

Key collaborations include:\n- **Base**: SubQuery’s infrastructure relies on [Base](https://iq.wiki/wiki/base), which aims to provide a scalable foundation for data indexing, RPC services, and AI app hosting.- **Traceye & OnFinality**: These partners offer centralised indexer hosting to support SubQuery's decentralised network.- **Blockchain Integrations**: SubQuery aims to support a broad range of [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) protocols, including [Ethereum](https://iq.wiki/wiki/ethereum), [Polkadot](https://iq.wiki/wiki/polkadot), [Avalanche](https://iq.wiki/wiki/avalanche), [Cosmos](https://iq.wiki/wiki/cosmos), Binance Smart Chain (BSC), [Polygon](https://iq.wiki/wiki/polygon) (Matic), [Near Protocol](https://iq.wiki/wiki/near-protocol), and [Fantom](https://iq.wiki/wiki/fantom), to facilitate multi-chain compatibility.
