Dear Linear Community,
In the spirit of decentralization, we are pleased to inform you that we are working to publish our subgraph to The Graph Network. The Graph is a decentralized protocol for indexing and querying data from blockchains, starting with Ethereum but continuously expanding its reach to other networks such as Gnosis and Polygon.
Indexing data on-chain is difficult because of blockchain properties such as finality, uncle blocks and chain reorganizations. The Graph solves these complications with a highly performant and decentralized solution that indexes blockchain data and makes it easy to query using GraphQL. These indexed subgraphs or APIs can then be searched with a standard GraphQL API.
During the past couple of weeks, the dev team at Linear Finance has been working to decentralize our data layer by publishing subgraphs to The Graph’s decentralized network to migrate Linear’s ETH bridge subgraphs that were previously self-hosted on our own server but have now been migrated to The Graph Network.
This is only the beginning of our data decentralization journey using The Graph. Once The Graph Network fully supports BNB Chain, Linear Finance will work on migrating the rest of our self-hosted subgraphs onto The Graph’s decentralized network. If you wish to learn more about The Graph, be sure to check the protocol’s documentation.
Kind regards,
Linear Finance Team

About The Graph
The Graph is the indexing and query layer of the decentralized web (Web3). Developers build and publish open APIs, called subgraphs, that applications can query using GraphQL. The Graph currently supports indexing data from 22 different networks including Ethereum, Arbitrium, Avalanche, Celo, Fantom, Moonbeam, IPFS, and PoA with more networks coming soon. To date, over 31,000 subgraphs have been deployed on the hosted service and now subgraphs can be deployed directly on the network! Over 24,000 developers have built subgraphs for applications, such as Uniswap, Synthetix, Foundation, Zora, KnownOrigin, Gnosis, Balancer, Livepeer, DAOstack, Audius, Decentraland, and many others.
If you are a developer building an application or Web3 application, you can use subgraphs for indexing and querying data from blockchains. The Graph allows applications to efficiently and performantly present data in a UI and allows other developers to use your subgraph too! You can deploy a subgraph to the network using the newly launched Subgraph Studio or query existing subgraphs that are in the Graph Explorer. The Graph would love to welcome you to be Indexers, Curators and/or Delegators on The Graph’s mainnet. Join The Graph community by introducing yourself in The Graph Discord for technical discussions, join The Graph’s Telegram chat, or follow The Graph on Twitter! The Graph’s developers and members of the community are always eager to chat with you, and The Graph ecosystem has a growing community of developers who support each other.
The Graph Foundation oversees The Graph Network. The Graph Foundation is overseen by the Technical Council. Edge & Node, StreamingFast, Figment and Semiotic AI are four of the many organizations within The Graph ecosystem.
