what's the easiest way to read/index data across popular chains like @base @undefined @zora? any APIs available? 

while @airstack.eth solves part of my challenge, i also need to access & read all smart contract txs for a given address on various chains, be it Base, Optimism, Zora, Ethereum etc.. any recommendations?

we've build our entire crypto media experience on top of https://subsquid.io for Zora, Base, Optimism, Ethereum. Super nice, their archives let you sync stuff extremely fast, provide hosted solution, batching paradigm is super intuitive to learn if you coming from subgraph or something, support and docs are top notch

i build UIs, APIs & share useless facts at /randominsights | currently @paragraph ex: @pimlico, @gallery & rabbithole.gg - souravinsights.com

chain rewards the curious | initial contributor at @interface | /interface /wijuwiju /walkthewalk | online at app.interface.social/wijuwiju.eth

also, what do you think about https://routescan.io/? have you ever used it or heard about it? @wijuwiju.eth

oh wow didn't know about it.. it sounds like a comprehensive solution, thanks for letting me know about this! 🙏

will explore how it might fit into our workflow.. have you encountered any challenges or limitations while using it?

if etherscan is available on all these chains then https://docs.etherscan.io/api-endpoints/accounts#get-a-list-of-normal-transactions-by-address might work

it seems they all have their own dedicated explorers. for Base we have BaseScan API (api.basescan.org/api) & for Optimism we have Optimism Etherscan API (api-optimistic.etherscan.io)

i just got to know about Routescan (routescan.io) which seems to be a multichain ecosystem explorer

wondering, is anyone here used it?

yeah i have used thegraph before.. but the thing is you need to use different subgraphs do read different smart contracts.. i was looking for some unified solution.. but anyway thanks for suggesting, haven’t heard about allium & transpose before.. what's mirror though? 🤔

depending on your use case, but

thegraph, mirror, allium, transpose, alchemy

zora is the hardest bc it has the lowest support across those tools, but its improving slowly
