## Description

Denham Preen, co-founder of Envio, presents on modern blockchain indexing at scale, emphasizing the need for advanced tools as blockchain transaction throughput surges from Ethereum’s 15 TPS to new chains like Monad and Sonic reaching up to 400,000 TPS. He outlines three pillars of modern indexing: performance (handling massive event volumes, e.g., 80M events in 9 hours), multi-chain support (indexing across 20+ networks, simplifying DevOps), and flexibility (end-to-end backend integration, async event handling, custom notifications, and database compatibility).

Envio’s stack includes Hypersync (Rust-based, high-performance data engine) and Hyperindex (developer-friendly, multi-chain framework). Real-world use cases include headless block explorers, revoke.cash integrations, streaming APIs, real-time analytics, arbitrage dashboards, and oracle indexing. Modern indexing enables scalable, flexible, and multi-chain DApp development, crucial for the next generation of blockchain applications.
