SQDExploring Crypto Gaming
Many years have passed since Vitalik Buterin started Ethereum after crying himself to sleep over lost items in World of Warcraft. What started as an attempt to create an ecosystem where centralized games wouldn’t have such powers has turned into a vibrant ecosystem of all sorts of applications.

Did you know that July was named after Julius Caesar?
And just like him, at SQD, we have grand aspirations, although we do our best to avoid dinner parties iykyk.
This month, there’s been a lot happening, from a major rebranding to enterprise partners and the release of our Romane Empire, aka the game plan. Here’s a recap of it all.
But first, the numbers.
Network in Numbers
950 Worker Nodes online
703 TB Data stored
138,545 Queries served in past 24 hours
93,551,227 SQD delegated
At the start of the month, SQD announced a significant transition, waving Goodbye to the Squid on our logo and welcoming a more mature interpretation of what Subsquid Labs is trying to achieve. The rebranding marks our transition to a production-ready platform ready to onboard major clients from Web2 and Web3.

A few days later, the native SQD token went live on Arbitrum on its first DEX: PancakeSwap. The PancakeSwap team was already a heavy SQD user, making it a logical choice for our first DEX appearance. And with its high liquidity, user-friendliness, and focus on being an all-in-one DeFi platform, it’s also a fun place to trade.
Another milestone for SQD was the release of our game plan. People often put SQD in a box, comparing it to other indexing protocols, without realizing that, the flexibility of our layer enables much more than that.
For an impression of what we’re aiming to build in the long run (spoiler: a data access layer that eventually outcompetes Web2), read our game plan or listen to the AMA we hosted with SQD CEO Dmitry Zhelezov.
In July, we also entered one new enterprise partnership and shipped a Proof-of-Concept, showcasing what’s possible when combining AI analytical tools and SQD onchain data:
Deutsche Telekom running worker nodes on SQD. LINK
Kelp Analytics’ integration provides an interactive tool to analyze Uniswa Price Impact powered by SQD data LINK
M31 enters strategic partnership with SQD LINK
Centuries after Caesar, Charles V was the most powerful man ruling the Holy Roman Empire—and despite the name, the center of his power wasn’t Rome but Brussels—the city that, in 2024, became the venue for ETH CC.
While you might have seen Tweets about getting robbed or Vitalik jumping through the rain, at SQD our focus was hosting an Open Data Brunch to discuss all things data, together with our partner Google Clouds.
Thanks to everyone who joined! No seats were left empty; no one was left standing in the rain.
AI x Blockchain Use cases X Space
Although we build regardless of the current meta, scale. But then it might matter less what we say than what others perceive us to be.
Undeniably, a lot is happening so for a deeper dive into what’s possible at the intersection of AI and Blockchain, we invited speakers from Guru Network and 0G Labs to discuss
“Once the infrastructure is in place, AI agents can do anything humans do onchain, from trading in DeFi to checking in on your portfolio to minting NFTs.”
For further insights from that space:
FYI, a shorter version of this has also gone out via email to all newsletter subscribers.
