Dune
The dominant on-chain analytics platform — write SQL queries against indexed blockchain data and publish dashboards. The community is the moat.
Dune indexes major chains (Ethereum, every L2, Solana, Bitcoin, Polygon, and more) into a queryable database and exposes a SQL editor in the browser. Anyone can write queries, share dashboards, and embed charts. The library of community-built queries is arguably the most valuable on-chain reference available.
Dune Wizards (community-curated power users) and DuneSQL (the custom warehouse engine) keep the platform aligned with on-chain analysis needs. DUNE is the protocol token, though most user interaction is free or via subscription.
