Purpose-Built Overlays, Not Full Nodes
Why sync the entire blockchain when you only need specific data? Run specialized services that index exactly what your application requires. Faster, cheaper, self-hostable.
Full Blockchain Nodes
- Sync entire blockchain regardless of needs
- Terabytes of storage for simple queries
- Slow response times from on-the-fly parsing
- Complex setup and maintenance overhead
Nodeless Overlays
- Index only the data types you need
- Minimal storage with pre-indexed databases
- Millisecond responses from Redis cache
- Deploy and run in minutes
Specialized Overlays
Each overlay indexes one data type and serves it through clean APIs. Run the ones you need.
ORDFS
File delivery overlay. Indexes on-chain content and serves it via familiar URLs. Your app requests files—ORDFS handles the blockchain lookup, caching, and delivery.
BSocial Overlay
Identity and social data overlay. Indexes BAP identities and social interactions so your app can query profiles, followers, and posts without scanning the chain.
BSV21 Overlay
Token indexing overlay. Tracks fungible token balances and transfers. Query token holdings and history through simple APIs instead of parsing raw transactions.
Sigma Auth
Authentication overlay. OAuth 2.0 backed by cryptographic signatures. Users prove identity with their keys—no passwords, no central database to breach.
Why Overlays Beat Full Nodes
A full node syncs the entire blockchain. An overlay indexes exactly what your application needs.
Index Only What You Need
Full nodes sync everything. Overlays index specific data types. Less storage, faster queries, lower costs.
Millisecond Responses
Pre-indexed data served from Redis and MongoDB. No on-the-fly blockchain parsing.
Self-Host Everything
Every overlay is open source. Run on your infrastructure, audit the code, modify as needed.
Production Proven
Powers MintFlow, Alchema, and applications processing thousands of daily transactions.
Use Cases
Nodeless Network powers applications that need specific blockchain data without the overhead of full nodes.
Infrastructure Stack
Run the Overlays You Need
Pick the overlays that match your application. Self-host them, use our managed platform, or mix both. Clean REST APIs and WebSocket subscriptions included.
