Introducing Marble. Marble is a platform for offchain software, built by the team behind Ponder. We're making it radically easier to build fast & reliable backend systems for crypto apps.
Nearly every action in crypto is powered by offchain software: indexers, bots, traditional web servers, etc. But building and operating these systems is painful — developers struggle with unreliable RPCs, reorgs, huge backfills, and realtime lag. Blog: marble.xyz/blog/introduci…
18 months ago, we released Ponder, an open-source indexing framework, to help solve these problems. Today, hundreds of companies and projects (like Morpho, Uniswap, and Optimism) use Ponder, but many users still struggle with scaling, observability, and ops.
That’s why we created Marble — a cloud platform for custom offchain code, starting with Ponder indexers. Alongside Ponder’s excellent local dev experience, we now have fast, intuitive, and production-grade hosting infrastructure.
We want to help ambitious developers ship custom software that interacts with blockchains. Indexing is our first focus, but we'll soon apply the same approach (tools for running custom code, not one-size-fits-all solutions/APIs) to other kinds of offchain software.
