Neon EVM, an Ethereum Virtual Machine operating as a smart contract on Solana, announced its integration with Covalent, marking a significant step forward for both platforms.
Neon EVM’s recently launched platform “allows developers to use EVM developer tools and Ethereum’s compute layer to transact on Solana.”
Neon EVM’s integration “with the Covalent API further unites the Solana and Ethereum ecosystems.” Covalent’s Unified API provides transparency and visibility to assets “across all blockchain networks.” Its dataset reportedly “supports 25B+ transactions, 30,000+ price feeds, and 200,000+ smart contracts.”
This integration unlocks extensive access “to data and insights across the Neon EVM ecosystem and taps into Covalent’s vibrant community of Web3 developers, analysts, and dApps.”
Covalent indexes vital data “from Neon EVM transactions, such as log events, trace events, and more.”
Not only does Covalent provide this data “through a convenient API service, it also supports customizable dashboards.” These no-code, intuitive dashboards “provide end users with the bespoke high-level analytics they need.”
Marina Guryeva, director of Neon Foundation, an organization dedicated to supporting and growing the Neon EVM community, said:
“Neon EVM’s integration with Covalent provides our community of developers and analysts with the data and data insights that they’ve been longing for. Neon EVM’s top priorities have always been improving blockchain utility and providing a better developer experience. Neon EVM is happy to work with the Covalent team, who shares this vision. This is a significant development that will push our ecosystem forward.”
David Tso, Growth & Customer Success Lead at Covalent, said:
“This partnership between Covalent and Neon EVM is a significant step towards bridging the gap between different blockchain ecosystems. Our partnership with Neon EVM will provide developers access to the Solana ecosystem and its large user base. By bridging the gap between Ethereum and Solana, we aim to empower developers to build data-rich applications that can be deployed on both ecosystems. This will help unlock the full potential of the EVM on Solana.”
Users and developers can access Neon EVM public testnet and mainnet data through Covalent starting today.
