The Graph is the indexing and query layer of web3. This blockchain indexing protocol enabling developers to build applications faster and cheaper, relying on a distributed network of contributors. By querying subgraph APIs, developers can retrieve the data indexed by The Graph network without the need for a dedicated indexing infrastructure. The Graph is the original protocol that introduced and standardized subgraphs as the data indexing and access custom across blockchains
Proof-of-Stake protocols use staking to create consensus. By locking native tokens into a validator - or indexers on The Graph blockchain -, you earn the right to secure a chain and earn rewards on your stake. Due to its environmental efficiency, staking has overtaken mining and is used far more often in newer protocols.
By locking a protocol’s native tokens (ie GRT) to give “validators” the right to secure a chain. Validators propose new blocks or attest other validators’ blocks, gaining rewards for doing so.
Staking is one of the safest and most predictable ways to get rewarded in the crypto space as the value originates from the blockchain’s native currency inflation, and a share of transaction fees. You help secure the network and earn rewards by staking your GRT.
If you do not stake, your assets token share will be diluted among other people’s tokens that are being staked and accumulating new tokens into the network.
