Built for analytics. Not just pipelines.
Dune gives enterprise teams 1+ PB of decoded blockchain data, a full analytics stack, and 500k+ community-validated queries — while Goldsky gives you raw events and leaves the analysis to you.
Speak to our teamWhy analytics teams choose Dune over Goldsky
Decoded data, not raw events
Goldsky streams raw blockchain events — you build the decoding, schemas, and transformations yourself. Dune ships 1,000,000+ expert-validated decoded smart contract schemas so your team can query production-ready data from day one.
SQL, dashboards, and dbt — out of the box
Goldsky provides no SQL interface, no dashboards, and no dbt support. Dune is a complete analytics platform: query with SQL, build fully custom dashboards, run dbt transformations, and connect BI tools — all without standing up separate infrastructure.
100+ chains, including Solana and Bitcoin
Goldsky supports a handful of EVM chains. Dune covers 100+ blockchains — including Solana, Bitcoin, and all major L2s — with decoded data on each. If your protocol or research spans multiple ecosystems, Goldsky can't follow.
Enterprise SLAs, SDKs, and AI-native workflows
Dune is MCP-ready for AI agents, ships Python and TypeScript SDKs, and integrates directly with BI tools and data warehouses. Goldsky is optimized for developers building apps — not for enterprises running analytical and operational workloads.
