Data exists in the blockchain but getting access to it is a computing problem that was solved in the 1950s. The graph brings that solution to the blockchain. Indexing. If I give you a big stack of books and tell you to find every page where the word "cat" gets used, you're going to have to search every single page line by line to find it. Now if I tell you to find all use of the word "cat" but not on pages where the word "dog" shows up and only when the page was created at most 3 weeks ago it's going to take you even longer. Indexing says we create columns for relevant data points and make that data more easily queried.
Basically when this is in full effect it makes app development much easier. Expect me tokens to be created for apps that will use GRT to query their data.

It makes getting data off the blockchain super simple and quick. ALL devs want this, and there's no other way to do it besides the current way using GraphQL and manually pulling it off. All projects that use smart contracts need to do this. Web3 will be based on this. Theres a reason ALL major DeFi projects adopted this DAY1. Uniswap, Aave, Compound, etc are all using The Graph.

GRT solves the problem of every future dapp having to manually sort out their own blockhain indexing solution and store/serve it to people through centralized servers. With GRT, people are incentivized to index blockchains on their own, and then dapp developers can access those indexes for cheap, all decentralized.

This is something that a decentralized twitter equivalent would need for example, but basically any dapp that needs to proccess and search a large amount of data needs the graph and there is NO OTHER solution for it, it's the ONLY coin in this space to do anything about this glaring issue, it has no competition. It's going to be the backbone of the new internet, And the coin is necessary for every involved party to have, every step of the way. $2.30 is insanely cheap for what it's going to be, we're looking at a top 3, maybe top 2 coin here

individual actors will stake GRT to build indexes of blockchains ahead of time on the graph because they're incentivized to do so by the way the graph works. And delegators are incentivized to stake their GRT on quality indexers, which sorts out the problem of verifying which ones are providing good indexes. And any dapp that wants to use indexes generated by the graph will need to pay GRT to do so. It's a self supported system and every single step of the process requires GRT

This particular token's acting like an IPO, to flex what it's worth. And it's worth a lot.

If it was a patently great idea and had plenty of financial backing, I guess it might be better to design their defi app with their own proprietary indexing protocol. It's designed to make dapps cheaper to develop in a cutting-edge field.

Think of indexing as taking all of the unordered data and placing it into an excel spreadsheet. In my example it would be a table with columns for page and word. So when you want to find an example it's easy to search. Indexing is done once and it improves query efficiency.

It's basically a graphQL API for blockchain data.
When you look up transactions on etherscan, it's not actually parsing the entire blockchain; the blockchain for ethereum alone is like 300 gigs. Instead, there's a backend data structure that expedites the process to find transactions. So like when you open a dictionary to find a word, you don't go through all the words individually, you look them up by letter.
The Graph is a decentralized computer network that indexes blockchains, like the index in a book, so that other applications can look up transactional data quickly. It just happens to use graphs (as in computer science graphs) to do it, using a decentralized computer network that is paid with the GRT token.

The validity of the data is up to the curator to determine. If it's wrong, the indexer has their rewards cut. If you want privacy on data that would basically require another layer on top.

>What is the data source of the indices?
the blockchain? if I understand the question

>How is indexed data validated? How can I know what I'm getting for my query is correct and not malicious?
delegators and curators both exist to validate & collectively rate the quality of indexes generated by indexers, you can read more about the incentive structure they have set up in the docs

>What if I want private data that cannot be publicly available?
For private data I'm not sure there's any real way the graph could work for it, since the whole idea is that indexers start indexing a blockchain ledger ahead of when it's necessarily required by a developer

>What about obscure data that no one expects to be queried, surely it cannot index all possible public data?
curators "signal" to indexers where they think indexing is required/valued, and are rewarded more for being ahead of the curve when that index does turn out to be valuable

This answer is also correct.
Tbh, I don't think it's a top 3 project, but it's definitely a future top 10, considering that APIs are already critical to many finance applications. Something like GRT has the potential to be critical to a future DeFi infrastructure.
GRT will easily have a MC of $20B at some point, but ETH and LINK (brings real world data on-chain, so key for crypto and derivatives to interact with things outside the cryptosphere) are also critical to that ecosystem so they'll probably always outrank it.
