Hey all! We’ve had a good month of November here at StreamingFast. Here are some highlights: ## 🎉 Looking back - Shipped version 1 of the Substreams:SQL deployable unit. See [the tutorial](https://substreams.streamingfast.io/tutorials/substreams-sql). - That followed our first release of the SQL sink and code-generation features to start with an ABI and ship an SQL data model in one swift. See [the tutorial here](https://substreams.streamingfast.io/tutorials/from-ethereum-address-to-sql). - We were present at EthGlobal and had many Substreams-specific submissions for the hackathon! - Here was [the best proposal](https://streamingfastio.medium.com/best-substreams-at-ethglobal-istanbul-nazar-e4c40d89707e)! - We shipped Arbitrum, and also backfilled pre-nitro blocks. - This was done using a new extraction technology that sucks data out of the RPC node instead of instrumenting it. - This method will allow us to go faster at rolling out new chains, at the expense of richer data. - We’ve made a few important refactors to the Firehose Core, and stream-lined the way we roll out new chains. Our goal is to accelerate the rollout of new protocols, and of multiple chains of the same protocol. - You can now upload your Substreams modules to [https://substreams.dev](https://substreams.dev) using the Upload dialog. (First cut a GitHub release). Please upload everything you have! And notice the new `image` field of the `package` [manifest section](https://substreams.streamingfast.io/reference-and-specs/manifests#package). Adding an image will show up in the registry. Here are also a few posts we put out: - [Turbocharging the Uniswap v3 subgraph with Substreams](https://streamingfastio.medium.com/turbocharging-the-uniswap-v3-subgraph-with-substreams-f0d71bd7e47e) - [Unveiling Substreams.dev: A comprehensive hub to discover, build, deploy, and share Substreams](https://medium.com/@streamingfastio/unveiling-substreams-dev-a-comprehensive-hub-to-discover-build-deploy-and-share-substreams-2545c758200e) - [Tips and Tricks for Developing Substreams](https://streamingfastio.medium.com/tips-and-tricks-for-developing-substreams-94cfc4cacbaa) ## 🚀 Looking ahead - Substreams.dev is going to get a beautification overhaul. - We’re also working with different teams to bring the Substreams GUI to the web (The Guild in particular) - We’ll be hosting The Graph’s 3rd Birthday Anniversary party at our office on December 18th: [https://twitter.com/streamingfastio/status/1732157934300250398](https://twitter.com/streamingfastio/status/1732157934300250398) - Some good stuff brewing around Bitcoin (yes yes 🙂). To be announced shortly. - Some captivating work on shipping LLMs to The Graph network. Stay tuned. - A few other things we’ll inform you in the beginning of the year, after our yearly review and strategic planning for next year. - Surely, lots of ambitious goals and exciting new technology. Thanks for your constant support and cheering! Merry Christmas and a happy New Year! ---

Amazing work here. StreamingFast has delivered a lot of new stuff recently to allow us to better index all the world’s blockchain data. Pinax will be testing all these things your team has built.
