Quote from Pascal Belouin & Sijuade Ajagunna, The Monitor

โ€œ The Covalent Unified API was incredibly easy to use and is very useful for creating cross-chain dApps.

Omnidata protocol

Quote from Victor Feng, Omnidata

โ€œ Covalent is the most comprehensive provider of cross-chain data APIs I've used so far. Needless to say that integrating Covalent's NFT APIs into Omnidata Oracle that is bridging the NFTs data across blockchains is pretty easy and straightforward.

Congratulations to all the talented participants!
