About This Episode
Gery from Blocktorch returns to DevNTell to showcase the updated beta version of their Web3 observability platform. Blocktorch is designed to help developers monitor their decentralized applications across multiple chains (Ethereum, Polygon, and BNB) and layers. The episode highlights features like smart contract monitoring, event-based alerting, and the Dragon SDK, which captures frontend errors that never reach the blockchain. Gery also discusses the future roadmap, including non-EVM chain support and integration with Web2 monitoring standards like OpenTelemetry.
Key Takeaways
Blocktorch is an observability platform aimed at simplifying the monitoring and debugging process for Web3 engineers.
The platform bridges the gap between on-chain data and off-chain frontend events using the Dragon SDK.
Users can set up specific monitors for metrics like gas price spikes, failed transactions, or account balances with automated alerts for platforms like Slack and Telegram.
Blocktorch is building toward an ecosystem-agnostic future, planning to support non-EVM chains and decentralized storage solutions like IPFS.
The tool is designed to be compatible with OpenTelemetry, allowing developers to integrate Web3 data into existing observability stacks like Datadog or Sentry.
