Must-read article.
"The problem we’ve run into as an industry is that now we have all of these parties (...) that want to talk to each other but don’t know how."
This quote specifically is why we're building Basement.

8/ 🖼 Faster APIs for common use-cases:
Ultimately, nobody should have to deal with indexer infrastructure. Which is why we’re offering advanced APIs for primitives such as NFTs. With ERC20, ERC1155 and many other common contracts coming soon!

7/ While this is a relatively simple example, our users use Basement’s advanced filters on properties such as methodId, topics, contract, sender, and transaction receiver open up a million new use-cases, with little code required.

6/ Our first set of APIs allows you to list, index and understand transactions, faster than any RPC node.
In the example shown, we ran some tests to list Approvals for a few wallets. We’re comparing 'eth_getLogs' to Basement’s logs API. 🏎

5/ 🏗 Introducing the easiest way to build on web3
At Basement we believe a developers time is better spend improving the UX and features of a web3 app, so we can onboard the next billion users, together.

4/ To build a fast and reliable application, web3 companies dedicate full teams to setup and maintain indexing infrastructure.
Moving data from nodes into their own optimised database, avoiding slow RPC calls altogether.

3/ Web3 developers usually start with an RPC nodes for their data needs, these are notoriously resource-intensive and hard to run.
To show a list of transactions and receipts, nodes have to re-execute smart contract code on entire blocks. For every read call.

2/ 📱 How did we get here?
We started building a little NFT tracker exactly one year ago (Happy Birthday! 🎈), but quickly hit the limits of our RPC nodes and existing NFT APIs. After many frustrating hours, we built our own APIs.
