As Dune expanded its onchain analytics platform across chains, Quicknode became the primary data infrastructure holding it together.
Dune is where crypto goes to understand itself. SQL querying, real-time data APIs, and onchain dashboards for protocol teams, exchanges, VCs, and analysts. If it happened onchain and someone needs to know about it, they're probably using Dune. A Dune pipeline failure doesn't stay with Dune. It hits every dashboard, every analytics view built on top of their data. Teams notice.
Dune ingests raw blockchain data (traces, logs, receipts), both historically and live, across every chain it covers. For a while, that sourcing ran across multiple node providers, routing traffic between them manually and patching gaps as they appeared. Overages hit almost every month. Not from runaway growth. From the ordinary cost of covering more chains with billing models that didn't fit how Dune actually scaled. Finance had no clean number to work from. Engineering spent time on routing problems that had nothing to do with Dune's product.
Then there is the 30-day rule. When Dune commits to a new chain, it has 30 days to go live. Self-imposed, but enforced by the customers waiting on the other side. Coverage that lags behind a mainnet launch is coverage that customers notice.
The overages stopped. A drawdown plan replaced monthly billing variance with a fixed credit pool. Engineering went back to building the transformation logic Dune's customers actually depend on.
Quicknode's chain coverage runs close enough to Dune's expansion pace that new chain commitments land as execution problems, not sourcing emergencies. Echo accounts for roughly two-thirds of total usage. Catalyst, and Akko run on it too.
"Dune is infrastructure for other people's infrastructure. When something breaks upstream, it doesn't stop with us. It lands everywhere our data does. Quicknode became our primary provider because the consistency held. At 200 million API responses a day across 91 chains, it still does."— Jonathan Skrzypek, VP of Engineering Dune
