After years of building decentralized data infrastructure for web3, we realized most tools, including our own, still rely on databases that aren’t blockchain-native. They treat chain data as static, losing essential properties like reorg awareness, streaming context, and verifiability.
In this talk, Sebastian Lorenz unveils Amp, the first blockchain-native database built from first principles on Rust, Apache Arrow, DataFusion, and SQL. Amp unifies streaming and batch processing, delivers sub-second chain-head latency, and plugs directly into the modern data ecosystem through open standards.
Sebastian will explain what makes Amp blockchain-native, how it integrates with The Graph Network, and why declarative SQL radically simplifies on-chain data extraction. Expect a technically grounded, builder-oriented session showing how Amp brings high-performance, composable, verifiable blockchain data from your laptop to the cloud.
