While well-structured and timed requests are not posing a threat to the stability of the service we have seen some incidents caused by sudden outbursts of incoming requests, caused either by bots spamming the API...

Introducing Checkpoint: a library for indexing StarkNet data
Earlier this year we announced Snapshot X, our upcoming on-chain voting framework launching on StarkNet. While building out Snapshot X, we realized that an app on StarkNet would benefit from a richer API layer than querying for data directly from the blockchain. The go-to solution to this on mainnet would have been to use The Graph to index on-chain data. At this time however, The Graph doesn’t support StarkNet so. We set out to build a solution ourselves, Checkpoint.What is CheckpointCheckpo...
