The murder of Charlie Kirk is part of a disturbing rise in political violence that threatens to hollow out our public life.
A free society relies on the premise that people can speak out without fear or humiliation.
No more political violence.
Never order from @ubereats_uk I ordered a Big Mac meal and the Big Mac was missing, they offered a refund for the BigMac only, so I’d have to reorder and pay delivery again 😫#makeitmakesense

(Summary of Text)
Amidst various projects that rely on short-term narratives and airdrops, causing sustainability issues, there are protocols that have steadily developed and refined their products over the years. The Graph is a prime example of such projects. As a data indexing/querying infrastructure, The Graph has provided these services to various applications and blockchains for the past three years. Notably, its usage has steadily increased without relying on airdrops or point systems, making it an encouraging case.
Furthermore, The Graph’s vast infrastructure and data position it to play a crucial role in the upcoming convergence of AI and blockchain, suggesting a promising future. Let’s delve into these points:
1. Focusing on Real Issues, Not Short-Term Narrative
The Graph differentiates itself by addressing genuine problems. Unlike other protocols that jump on short-term narratives, The Graph identifies the inconveniences faced by blockchain services and provides relevant solutions, specifically blockchain data indexing and querying. This is a challenging task due to the nature of blockchain data, which includes finality, chain reorganization, and orphan blocks.
Despite these challenges, The Graph emerged to meet these needs, leading to consistent demand independent of token rewards. Applications like Farcaster, Lido, Uniswap, Aave, Compound, and Curve use The Graph for data indexing/querying, demonstrating its value in solving crucial problems.
2. Beyond Indexing: AI Infrastructure
The Graph is taking a step further by leveraging its accumulated data and indexer network to provide AI infrastructure. The vast blockchain data The Graph has collected over the years is highly valuable for AI training.
The performance of AI models is largely dependent on the volume of data they can learn from, making The Graph’s data an excellent resource for developing AI-based on-chain data tools, such as AgentC.
Additionally, The Graph’s extensive indexer network offers significant computing resources, enabling the direct hosting of AI inference models. Thus, The Graph is not merely a data indexer; its potential to host AI models positions it for even greater growth.
This evolution is why The Graph should not be viewed solely as a data indexer and query service. By hosting AI models, The Graph can achieve significant growth beyond its current scope.
3. Why Focus on The Graph Now?
The Graph exemplifies a model protocol, addressing market issues and expanding its problem-solving capabilities through its infrastructure. The Graph’s future looks promising as it continues to focus on “necessary” solutions rather than “appealing” problems, making it a protocol worth watching.

@BeckettUnite have you now seen the footage from #ManchesterAirport you absolute moron… you expel hate speech daily shame on you! Obviously uneducated and have lived your life underprivileged…
@JDSports 🚨TERRIBLE online service, ordered trainers 11 days ago, despatch was confirmed, delivery never made!! I’ve now been told I’ll have to wait another 3-8 days for a refund… DO NOT USE https://t.co/by2SwrvAZz
@Bozzyman@implausibleblog You should be called the Bozoman… all this policy does is even further the divide between those who have and those who have not!
