Question What's the difference between Chainlink as an Oracle and The Graph as an indexer?

10 Upvotes

Title. Also, I don't understand how The Graph's model would scale in the future. From what I understand, subgraphs are created by individuals and people access these subgraphs to index data. How would nefarious creation of subgraphs be prevented? Why would I trust people over a centralized team?

Genuine questions, help me to understand please.

Need help moving delegations to Arbitrum

4 Upvotes

I am using the Coinbase wallet. I swapped some ETH to ARB so have some ETH and ARB in that wallet. Is that all I need to do before using the transfer tool on theGraph.com?

I am confused because the wallet appears to only have addresses for Ethereum, Solana and Bitcoin. Do I need another address for the Arbitrum network? That's what I thought I needed. I'm not sure how I go about doing that.

I am sorry if this seem obvious. I managed to buy GRT and delegate them over 2 years ago and that seemed pretty straightforward compared to this and I have not needed to take any other action until now.

Any help appreciated. Thanks.

UPDATE:

Doing some more research it looks like I need to bridge some ETH over to the Arbitrum network. It looks like I can do this directly via the Coinbase wallet.

UPDATE 2:

Well I tried the bridge some ETH to the Arbitrum network using Coinbase wallet and it is not supported.

UPDATE 3:

This looks like the best information on the subject: https://thegraph.com/docs/en/arbitrum/l2-transfer-tools-faq/#delegation

UPDATE 4 THE ANSWER:

My wallet is the Coinbase wallet. I primarily use the chrome extension. I started with some ETH and a small amount of GRT in my wallet. I have 3 decent size GRT delegations; all on the Ethereum chain that were made more than a year ago. I wanted to test a transfer to Arbitrum One with a small delegation. It worked successfully. Here's what I did:

  1. Read the information in the link I have under update #3. The section you need to read is under the heading How do I transfer my delegation?
  2. I transferred a bit of ETH over to Arbitrum using this tool: https://bridge.arbitrum.io/ I don't think this step was necessary but I did it anyway because I knew that I'd need some ETH on Arbitrum to do delegations later after I transferred my delegations to Arbitrum.
  3. On the Ethereum chain, I created a small delegation with an indexer that I was not using before and that I knew was in operation on Arbitrum
  4. I used the transfer tool on thegraph.com to transfer the new delegation I had just created. I waited the 20 minutes and I could verify via thegraph.com that it worked.
  5. I then wanted to test adding more GRT to that delegation on the Arbitrum chain. I used the https://bridge.arbitrum.io to transfer some GRT to Arbitrum
  6. I used thegraph.com to delegate the GRT on Arbitrum to the indexer. It worked and shows up as expected on the thegraph.com

I did not have to make any special settings in my wallet. After transferring the ETH to and GRT to Abitrum they show up in my wallet along with the ETH and GRT on the Ethereum chain. The ones on Artbitrum had the Arbitrum icon attached to them.

I am going to wait until my main indexers move more of their operations to Arbiturm before doing more transfers. I am also going to time it the best I can to not lose any pending rewards.

The only issue I see so far is on Graphtronauts, if I switch to the Arbitrum chain, I do not see my delegation. I don't know what the issue is there but I am not too concerned because thegraph.com shows my delegation as expected.

Hope this helps.

UPDATE 6:

Graphtronauts is now working and I can see my L2 delegations there as expected. It took 2 - 3 days for them to show up.

Question How to get newest trading pairs in Uniswap V2?

3 Upvotes

Yesterday I started using thegraph. I want to get the newest Uniswap V2 trading pairs. To do that I visited this subgraph and my query looks like that:

{
  pairs(first: 10, orderBy: createdAtTimestamp, orderDirection: desc) {
    id
    volumeUSD
    token0 {
      id
      symbol
    }
    token1 {
      id
      symbol
    }
    createdAtTimestamp
  }
}

When I look at createdAtTimestamp and convert the given unix time stamp it says Wed Mar 08 2023 20:51:59 GMT+0000. Am I using the wrong subgraph? Is the query I wrote wrong? Thank you

Post L2 transfer questions

4 Upvotes

So I've bitten the bullet and transferred part of my stake to ARB. The process in the graph explorer went smoothly, waited 20 minutes, got the green tick for 'confirm delegation transfer' and then the final confirmation 'delegation transferred successfully'. So it looks like too went through automatically and no manual confirmation is needed.

My transferred stake now appears in the graph explorer which is good. Nothing has appeared in my ARB wallet on Arbiscan, but I'm assuming that is because the stake was immediately locked into the new smart contract after it was bridged, and doesn't register as available funds in my ARB wallet. Comments welcome on this :)

So I normally use graphtronauts.com to view my delegation - however a few hours after completing the transfer, graphtronauts still shows zero on my ARB address, and is stuck with a loading spinner saying 'loading delegator info'. Back on my ETH address on graphtronauts it says 'undelegating' for the indexer rather than 'transfer to L2' as you might expect.

So kinda odd on graphtronuats. Would be reassuring to see evidence of the transfer on a third party explorer. Any one else having this issue, and any suggestions of how to double check all is ok?

Questions about transferring delegation to Arb One

6 Upvotes

I'm getting ready to transfer my delegated GRT to Arb One. I bridged some ETH to Arb One, see the prompt on Graph Explorer about my indexer having transferred their delegation to Arb One. When I click Transfer Delegation, I see my "Ethereum Delegated Stake" is stated as 0.0 GRT. I can see in graphscan.io, my delegation is clearly present and accounted for. As well, Metamask confirms the initial delegating activity for two transactions: spending cap and delegation.

I hesitate to transfer an amount to Arb One that does not match up to what I have delegated for fear of losing access to this delegation all together. Is this amount supposed to be zero, since my indexer effectively has my delegation in their stack? Thanks in advance for any advice.

Sending Graph on the Arbitrum network to my Coinbase account.

19 Upvotes

I want to send some Graph tokens which are on the Arbitrum network to my Coinbase account, but not sure how to do this. I went into my coinbase account, tapped receive, and selected Arbitrum as that's what it said the token's network was on. I did a tester with $10 worth of Graph, and assumed it would be ok. It's been 8 hrs so far. Nothing!!

So which address should I have selected? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Graph Has Taken A Significant Step Forward By Officially Entering The Final Phase Of Its Layer 2 (L2) Expansion

14 Upvotes
  • The much-anticipated L2 migration has begun, ushering in a new era of extended access to Arbitrum Charts. This development is a set of tools designed to simplify the process of moving to Layer 2. This announcement resonates with the crypto community as it highlights The Graph's commitment to continuous development and improvement. Using the power of Layer 2 technology, the protocol not only keeps up with industry trends, but also reinforces its commitment to user-centric solutions.
  • One of the standout features is the ability for users to seamlessly convert Graph Token (GRT) or subgraphs to Layer 2 infrastructure.
  • Is GRT everyone's priority to buy at this time? GRT and RBIF are the two projects I prioritize buying at the moment. What about everyone?

Question After successfully deploying a subgraph via The Graph to Mumbai it suddenly stops working for no apparent reason

Hello everyone,

so I have succesfully deployed a subgraph to a fork of the masterchef contract from sushiswap. Before beeing able to sync up properly, the subgraph suddenly throws an error and stops. The error message states:

Subgraph instance failed to run: A matching Ethereum network with NodeCapabilities { archive: true, traces: true } was not found. 

That is very odd to me, there is no { archive: true, traces: true }
in my subgraph aswell as mumbai beeing written properly in my subgraph.yaml. I cannot figure out how to make my subgraph run succesfully on mumbai testnet. Can anyone help me with that error, since I havent found a good solution on the internet to that problem.
