The Graph (GRT) Token

Founded in 2018 by Yaniv Tal, Jannis Pohlmann, and Brandon Ramirez, Graph is an indexing protocol aiming at facilitating data querying from blockchains. It has a huge community throughout the globe with more than 200 Indexer Nodes in testnet and 2000+ curators in the curator program. 

About GRT token

GRT, being an ERC-20 token on the Ethereum blockchain, is the native token of Graph which is utilized to allocate resources in the network. Though built on the Ethereum blockchain, Graph can index data on multiple chains such as NEAR, Cosmos, Avalanche, Arbitrum, Optimism, and Polygon.

The Graph network is a decentralized protocol used for indexing, querying, and organizing blockchain data. Applications can get network-indexed data by using GraphQL programming language to query open APIs known as subgraphs. The Graph’s hosted service handled 20 billion requests in April 2021.

Active Indexers, Curators and Delegators are the service providers to the Graph network. Indexers are rewarded with query fees and indexing rewards whereas Curators earn a percentage of query fees for the subgraphs they report on. However, delegators are subjected to the percentage of the pay collected by the Indexer they delegate to.

GRT Token Use Cases 

Indexer Staking: Delegators can stake GRT to Indexer to provide economic security to the network and to earn a percentage of Indexer's query fees and rewards.

Curator Signaling: Curators add GRT tokens into the bonding curve for predicting the subgraphs that would be indexed. In return, they will earn a part of the query fees that the subgraph generates in future.

Grants: Participants who contribute towards the growth of The Graph ecosystem will be rewarded with grants in GRT.

Governance: The token holders can take part in governance decisions for the development of Graph protocol.

This indicates that the volume of requests The Graph processes will determine whether GRT is an inflationary or deflationary asset in the future.
