Web3 data APIs

Moralis vs Alchemy

Moralis and Alchemy both package enriched web3 data on top of nodes — balances, tokens, NFTs. The choice is usually about coverage and ergonomics. Either way you add vendors for intelligence and compliance. 1st Node serves the same enriched data and the layers above it on one key.

Moralis

Moralis leads on cross-chain balance/token/NFT APIs and a fast on-ramp.

Alchemy

Alchemy leads on enhanced APIs, webhooks and EVM developer experience.

Both stop at enriched data — the counterparty graph, smart-money and AML are elsewhere.

Where 1st Node fits

  • Balances, token metadata, holders and net-worth as core primitives.
  • The archive RPC underneath the enriched data on the same key.
  • Counterparty graph and smart-money an enrichment API can't give you.
  • AML risk-score and KYT for regulated flows on the same balance.

Preguntas frecuentes

Do you match their token and NFT data?

Yes — balances, metadata, holders and portfolio are core primitives.

Can I get the raw RPC too?

Yes — enriched data and JSON-RPC share the same key.
