The challenge

Clean blockchain data is hard to get for research.

Studying DeFi, MEV or on-chain markets means wrangling raw chain data before you can ask a single question. Most labs and classrooms lose weeks to infrastructure that has nothing to do with their research.

Clean data is hard to access

Reliable, queryable on-chain data for research isn't sitting in a downloadable table — you have to build it.

Archive nodes are infeasible

Running and syncing archive nodes per chain is impractical for a classroom or a small lab budget.

Raw chain data is messy

Undocumented, encoded and inconsistent across chains — students spend more time decoding than analyzing.

How it works

From a question to a dataset, in four steps.

We index, decode and document major chains so you can focus on teaching and research, not pipelines.

1

Explore

Open the GraphQL IDE in your browser and explore the schema — no setup, no node, no SDK.

2

Query

Ask DEX trades, transfers, balances or NFT events on 9 core chains from one schema (40+ on Enterprise).

3

Analyze

Export results to Jupyter, pandas or R — or use Enterprise warehouse delivery for large studies.

4

Publish

Reproduce queries, cite the data source and ship your paper, thesis or course project.

What you get

Everything a course or research project needs.

7-day free trial

Full streaming on any paid plan — covers coursework and small research projects, with academic discounts for larger datasets.

GraphQL IDE & examples

Build and test queries in the browser, with ready-made examples for Jupyter, Streamlit and Observable.

One schema, many chains

DEX trades, transfers, balances and NFT events on 9 core chains (40+ on Enterprise) — one consistent schema.

Historical + real-time data

Live window on self-service; archive add-ons or Enterprise for deep history. Stream live over WebSocket for real-time studies.

Export for research

CSV on self-service; Parquet, S3 dumps and BigQuery / Snowflake datashares on Enterprise for reproducible research datasets.

Generous docs & support

Deep documentation, worked examples and responsive support so students can learn fast and researchers move quickly.

Bitquery does the hard work of parsing blockchain transaction data into a usable form so that we don't have to. We use their interface to diagnose issues with complex transactions and their analytics as a starting point for our own.

Alex Knaggs0x Protocol

They proved they had the technology to deliver sophisticated data solutions. We extended our support through the Binance X fellowship — building an open-source library of visualization widgets on their blockchain data.

Flora SunDirector, Binance X

The complex raw data is available at different levels of detail and from different viewpoints — whether we need simple aggregated transfers or parameters for failed contract calls. The support is responsive, friendly and quick.

Jan DreskeBackend Developer, Blockpit

Partnering with Bitquery has been highly cost-effective — leveraging their established infrastructure rather than building our own let us rapidly expand our blockchain support and reach a much broader segment of on-chain users.

Nick ChristieCo-Founder, Syla

Bitquery's products are very intuitive and easy to use. We rely on them for DEX trading and liquidity data — saving us the manpower and tedious technical details of building our own system. Their team gives near-24/7 support and resolves issues fast.

FAQ

Blockchain data for research, answered.

How can universities and researchers use Bitquery?
Bitquery's blockchain data APIs are used by university research labs, finance and computer science departments, and individual researchers to study DeFi, market microstructure, on-chain economics, MEV, NFT markets and more. Our GraphQL API gives you ad-hoc query access without needing to run nodes or build indexers.
Does Bitquery offer free or discounted academic access?
Start with a 7-day free trial on any paid plan — full WebSocket streaming included, no card required. The $49/mo Personal plan covers most coursework and small non-commercial research projects. For larger datasets, longer historical ranges or PhD theses, contact our team — we offer academic discounts on a case-by-case basis for credentialed researchers and accredited universities.
Can I export blockchain data for research papers and academic projects?
Yes. Self-service supports CSV for coursework and small projects. Large-scale research datasets — S3 dumps, BigQuery and Snowflake datashares, Parquet, and multi-year history across 40+ chains — are available on Enterprise. Contact sales for academic access.
Which programming languages and tools does Bitquery support?
Any language that speaks HTTP and GraphQL: Python (popular with researchers — pandas and NumPy integration is straightforward), R, Julia, JavaScript/TypeScript, Go, Rust and more. We also have official examples for Jupyter notebooks, Streamlit and Observable.
Does Bitquery have datasets for ML/AI training on blockchain data?
Yes. Researchers use Bitquery to build labeled datasets for fraud detection, MEV classification, wallet clustering, price prediction and bot detection. Our cluster labels and entity attribution provide ground truth for supervised learning. Contact us for bulk dataset access for ML training.
How do I cite Bitquery data in academic publications?
Cite as: “Bitquery, Inc. Blockchain data APIs and indexed datasets, accessed via https://bitquery.io.” Include the date range, chains and query method (GraphQL/Kafka/datashare). Reach out for a formal data-source citation guide if your publication requires a specific format.
