About
The Graph (GRT)

The Graph (GRT) is a decentralized indexing protocol for querying and organizing data from blockchains, akin to a search engine for the Web3 ecosystem. It addresses a critical challenge in blockchain technology: the difficulty of efficiently retrieving specific on-chain data. Before The Graph, developers had to build and operate proprietary indexing servers, a resource-intensive process. This protocol provides a foundational middleware layer, enabling decentralized applications (dApps) to query complex smart contract data through open APIs called subgraphs, significantly streamlining the development of DeFi applications and other Web3 infrastructure.

At its core, the network utilizes a work token, GRT, to coordinate participants: Indexers, Curators, and Delegators. Indexers operate nodes and stake GRT to process queries and provide indexing services. Curators are subgraph developers or data consumers who signal which subgraphs are high-quality by staking GRT. Delegators contribute to network security by delegating their GRT to existing Indexers. This tokenomics model creates a vibrant data economy powered by cryptographic security. By leveraging GraphQL as its query language, The Graph offers a powerful tool, solidifying its position as an essential component for building truly decentralized applications on a global, verifiable digital ledger.

Frequently asked questions

  • What is the primary method for purchasing The Graph (GRT) with Korean Won (KRW)?

    The primary method is through major South Korean cryptocurrency exchanges that list the KRW/GRT trading pair. This involves creating an account, completing mandatory KYC/AML verification with a real-name bank account, and then using a KRW bank transfer to fund your exchange wallet. Once funded, you can place a buy order on the KRW/GRT order book to acquire the digital asset.
  • What is the function of GRT within The Graph's decentralized data indexing protocol?

    GRT is an ERC-20 utility token that powers The Graph's data economy. It is used by network participants: Indexers stake GRT to provide indexing and query processing services; Curators stake GRT to signal on valuable subgraphs; and Delegators stake GRT to support Indexers. Query fees and rewards within this Web3 infrastructure are also denominated in GRT, ensuring the network's integrity and operation.
  • Are there specific regulatory requirements for trading the KRW/GRT pair in South Korea?

    Yes. South Korean financial regulations, enforced by bodies like the Financial Services Commission (FSS), mandate strict KYC procedures. To trade any fiat-to-crypto pair like KRW/GRT, users must link a real-name verified bank account to their cryptocurrency exchange account. This 'real-name account' system is a key part of the country's AML compliance framework for digital asset transactions.
  • How does The Graph's use of GraphQL APIs benefit developers acquiring GRT?

    Developers utilize The Graph to build dApps by querying indexed blockchain data via 'subgraphs'. These subgraphs have open GraphQL APIs, which simplify data retrieval significantly compared to direct node interaction. Acquiring GRT allows developers to pay for query fees, but more strategically, to participate as Curators, staking GRT on subgraphs they deem high-quality, thereby influencing the data economy and earning rewards.
  • What are the typical fees when converting KRW to GRT on a South Korean exchange?

    There are generally two main fees. First, a deposit fee for the KRW bank transfer, which is often low or even free depending on the exchange and your bank. Second, and more significantly, a trading fee is charged when your buy order for GRT is executed. This is typically a small percentage (e.g., 0.05% to 0.25%) of the total transaction value. Always check the specific exchange's fee schedule for precise figures.
