On the 21st of October 2022, Cronos blockchain announced the integration of Unmarshal, to index its blockchain data.
We are excited to welcome @unmarshal who will be indexing blockchain data on #Cronos🔥
Unmarshal will be a one-stop solution for developers to access on-chain data, smart notification services, and utilize its low-code data analytics tool. https://t.co/VJ1F0eJSji

Unmarshal is an easy-to-use tool for developers to access on-chain data, get Smart notifications, and utilize its analytical tools. Unmarshal aims to provide real-time data to multiple decentralized applications and protocols.
It also provides an easy way to query data on major blockchains like Ethereum, Binance chain, Solana, Polygon Matic, and Cronos, just to name a few. Unmarshal doesn’t just provide the raw data, with a series of transforming tools, developers and web3 users can transform and view blockchain data.
Unmarshal was funded by the Cronos Ecosystem Grants Program. Cronos is a blockchain network powered by Ethermint and built on Cosmos. The project is largely supported by the crypto exchange company, Crypto.com
Since it is an Ethereum-compatible blockchain, it exists as a bridge between Cosmos and Ethereum ecosystems, enjoying the benefits of both.
It is a layer 1 network, open source and permissionless, focused on scaling the DeFi and GameFi space. Upon integration with Cronos, unmarshal indexed more than 5 million blocks on the Cronos network. With above 59 million transactions on the network, Unmarshal continues to sync the live data.
It also built frameworks for its multiple services. Namely API, parser, and notification service. It has DeFi API features that allow users to track asset transfers, access notification histories, and decode transactions, with in-depth descriptions of those transactions.
It also allows Cronos users to track the wallets of other users, the latest tokens, and prices in stores. Its NFT API features can fetch the assets held, and transacted on any given wallet.
The Unmarshal parser is mostly for developers to index functions and events related to contracts deployed on an EVM-based chain, like Cronos. Once the data has been indexed it is accessible through GraphQL and Metabase API.
The Unmarshal notification service gives smart and instant alerts for events on smart contracts. This allows developers to integrate Web3 notifications into their decentralized apps.
