GoldRush vs Bitquery

Foundational multichain data API vs GraphQL-first onchain query platform.

Bitquery is a GraphQL-first onchain query platform with deep DEX, mempool, and historical-analytics coverage across many chains. GoldRush is a foundational, decoded-data REST API with GraphQL streaming and native x402. Use Bitquery for ad-hoc analytical queries. Use GoldRush for production app primitives plus an agent-ready payment flow.

Why teams choose GoldRush over Bitquery

The differences that matter when you're shipping multichain data, drawn from each product's public docs and pricing.

Production-ready REST

Predictable REST endpoints that are simple to consume from serverless and agentic runtimes, with no GraphQL query authoring per call.

JSON-RPC included

30+ EVM RPC endpoints ship in the same product, so node access isn't a separate integration.

Wider chain coverage

Decoded data across 100+ chains versus about 40 for Bitquery.

x402 for agents

Agents pay per request with no signup or key. Bitquery lets you query x402 transaction data, but does not accept x402 as a payment method for its own API.

Best for

GoldRush

Apps and agents that need predictable REST endpoints with x402 for autonomous use.

Bitquery

Analysts and quants writing flexible GraphQL queries across mempool, DEX, and historical chain data.

Code: Get a wallet's balances on Ethereum

Same task, both APIs. Read top to bottom to see request shape and how much data each call returns.

GoldRush

// GoldRush, wallet balances on any chain
const res = await fetch(
  "https://api.covalenthq.com/v1/eth-mainnet/" +
  "address/vitalik.eth/balances_v2/",
  { headers: { Authorization: "Bearer " + process.env.GOLDRUSH_API_KEY } }
);
const { data } = await res.json();
console.log(data.items);

Bitquery

// Bitquery: GraphQL query
const query = `{
  ethereum {
    address(address: {is: "0xd8da..."}) {
      balances {
        currency { symbol }
        value
      }
    }
  }
}`;
const res = await fetch("https://graphql.bitquery.io", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    "X-API-KEY": process.env.BITQUERY_API_KEY,
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({ query }),
});

Frequently asked questions

When you need flexible analytical GraphQL queries across mempool, DEX trades, and historical chain state. Bitquery's query surface is broader for ad-hoc analysis. For production app primitives such as wallets, portfolios, and NFT browsers, plus agentic flows, GoldRush is more predictable.
