Coverage Levels

Each chain has a coverage level indicating what data is available.

Levels

LevelDescriptionEndpoints available
FULLY_INDEXEDBlock-by-block indexing with all transaction typesAll wallet, balance, transfer, and blockchain endpoints
PARTIALLY_INDEXEDIndexed but missing some data (e.g., no internal txs)Wallet transfers and balances, no traces
EXPLORER_APIData fetched on-demand from block explorer APIsWallet transfers (may be slower), balances
SANCTIONS_ONLYOnly sanctions screening availableScreening endpoints only

What "fully indexed" means

  • Every block processed and stored
  • Normal transactions, internal transactions, and token transfers all captured
  • Balance snapshots available at any block height
  • Sub-second latency for all queries
  • Trace data available (if chain supports it)

Explorer API chains

For chains in EXPLORER_API mode:

  • Data is fetched from the chain's block explorer on demand
  • Response times are higher (100-500ms vs 10-50ms for indexed chains)
  • Rate limits from upstream explorers may apply
  • Historical data depth depends on the explorer

Checking chain status

bash
curl https://api.cryptachain.com/v1/status/chains

Each chain in the response includes:

  • indexing_status — current coverage level
  • latest_block — most recent indexed block
  • sync_lag_blocks — how far behind the chain tip
  • is_healthy — whether the chain is operational
