Indexed EDUBlockchain Data
EDU Chain is the Arbitrum Orbit Layer 3 that Open Campus built for education applications, batching to Arbitrum One rather than Ethereum and charging its gas in EDU.
How to query EDU Chain data with SonarX
Instant Data Share
Available todaySnowflake, and file dumps to your object storage
Query EDU Chain blockchain data with plain SQL from a live database inside your own Snowflake account, populated with the indexed chain dataset. There is no pipeline to build and no second copy to store. The same dataset ships as file dumps to your own object storage for lakes and warehouses that are not Snowflake.
- Full history as a Snowflake data-share
- File dumps to S3 or your own object storage
- Real-time delivery, current to chain tip — on request
Used for:
- Analytics teams already on Snowflake that want EDU Chain data beside their existing tables
- Fund accounting and treasury reporting that reconciles against a fixed history
- Cross-chain questions answered in one SQL statement instead of one query per chain
- Loading EDU Chain history into BigQuery, Databricks, Redshift or a Spark lake
- Replacing a self-hosted indexer and the engineering time that keeps it running
- Serving one governed dataset to several desks without copying it per team
Kafka Streaming
Enabled on requestEvent stream
Consume EDU Chain activity as a continuous stream of normalized records, produced as the chain is indexed instead of polled for.
Used for:
- Trading and execution systems that act on EDU Chain activity within seconds
- Fraud and anomaly detection that has to fire before settlement
- Live dashboards and alerting on EDU Chain wallet or protocol activity
- Feeding a stream processor that already reads from Kafka
- Keeping an internal store hot without waiting for a batch window
- Event-driven services that would otherwise poll on a timer
Balances
Available todayTables and REST
Read what a EDU Chain address held, either as it stands now or exactly as it stood at a past block or timestamp.
- Point-in-time balance tables, as at any block or timestamp
- Real-time balances API for latest and historical balances — on request
- Batch API for wallets, tokens and balances in bulk — on request
Used for:
- Reconstructing EDU Chain portfolios and NAV as at a reporting date
- Audit and reconciliation work that has to be repeatable months later
- Wallet and portfolio products that render EDU Chain balances on page load
- Compliance checks that read one EDU Chain address at one block height
- Refreshing holdings for a whole book of accounts on a schedule
- Tax and cost-basis workflows that need holdings at each event
Realtime API
Enabled on requestREST over the indexed dataset
Query indexed EDU Chain records over REST, reading the same dataset the share reads, with no warehouse in the path.
Used for:
- Applications that need one answer rather than a table scan
- Customer-facing screens where query latency is visible to a user
- Services that have no data warehouse and do not want to run one
- Prototyping against production data before committing to a share
- Backend checks that run per request instead of per batch
- Teams that want indexed EDU Chain data behind their own API layer
EDU Chain data: frequently asked questions
What is EDU Chain?
EDU Chain is an Arbitrum Orbit chain built by Open Campus for education applications, and it opened to all users in January 2025. It runs as a Layer 3: transactions are batched to Arbitrum One, which in turn settles to Ethereum, so the chain sits two hops from L1 finality rather than one. Data availability follows the AnyTrust design, where a committee attests that the transaction data is available and the attestation travels upward in place of the data. Gas is paid in EDU, the Open Campus token, rather than in ETH, and the network answers to chain ID 41923. Execution is the EVM, with twenty-byte addresses and the usual token standards, so contracts written for Ethereum deploy without change. The applications on it are education-facing, which makes its contract mix credentials and payments rather than liquidity pools.
EDU Chain data on SonarX
SonarX indexes EDU Chain blocks and headers, transactions and receipts, decoded event logs, execution traces including internal value transfers, and token transfers and balances. Batching and deposit records stay identifiable rather than folded into user activity.
Full historical coverage is available today as a data-share or a file delivery. Real-time delivery is enabled on request. Point-in-time balance tables are available for EDU Chain, and the rest can be enabled on request. Kafka streaming can be enabled for EDU Chain on request.
How SonarX indexes EDU Chain
Three chains stand between a transaction here and Ethereum, and the data has to say so. A record is produced on EDU Chain, batched to Arbitrum One, and settled only once Arbitrum’s own posting to Ethereum clears, which gives every record three relevant timestamps instead of one. AnyTrust is the second point: transaction data stays with a committee, so this history cannot be rebuilt from L1 data and has to be indexed from the chain itself. Gas in EDU is the third, because a fee series here is denominated in a bridged token, so cost comparisons need a conversion.
What teams build with EDU Chain data
Token accounting on EDU is the first workload: the asset pays for gas here, is issued and traded elsewhere, and moves between the two, so supply and distribution hold together only when both sides are read against each other. Credential and record analysis is the second, and it is particular to this chain, because issuing a certificate is a contract event and its history is the sequence of issuances, transfers and revocations rather than a balance. Application analytics is the third, counting actions per contract and per account from decoded logs. Distribution work of this kind runs through tokens and payments, and teams surveying Orbit chains usually pull Xai alongside this one.
Getting EDU Chain data from SonarX
Tell us the delivery target, how far back you need and how fresh it has to be, and the share is scoped against that. EDU Chain history is available now, with batching records kept beside the transactions they carry. The published coverage matrix for every network SonarX indexes lives in the data documentation, and the rest of the catalogue is at all indexed chains.
Is there an EDU Chain data API?
Real-time and batch APIs over indexed EDU Chain data are enabled on request: the same indexed dataset the Snowflake share reads, served over REST once provisioned. Tell us the lookup pattern you need.
How do I get EDU Chain data into Snowflake?
SonarX provisions a data-share into your own Snowflake account. The share appears as a database you query with SQL, so there is no pipeline to build and no second copy to store, and it stays current as SonarX advances the indexing pipeline.
How far back does EDU Chain coverage go?
The historical data-share and file delivery cover the chain from its January 2025 opening forward, and are available today. The testnet that Open Campus ran before it is a separate network with its own history, so a series that starts earlier is reading a different chain rather than an earlier EDU Chain.
Does EDU Chain settle to Ethereum or to Arbitrum?
To Arbitrum One directly, and to Ethereum only through it. That puts two settlement hops between a transaction here and Ethereum finality, so a withdrawal has a leg on each of three networks and a record can be final on this chain, pending on Arbitrum and unsettled on Ethereum at the same moment. Reconciliation work has to say which of the three it means.
