The integration enables comparison of transaction and smart-contract activity with other networks.
Hedera Hashgraph’s transaction data has been added to Google Cloud’s BigQuery public datasets, giving developers and researchers direct access to the network’s historical records without the need to run their own infrastructure.
The integration adds more blockchains to the list of available blockchains on BigQuery, which already includes Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Polygon.
The Hedera Foundation coordinated the project with Ariane Labs and Hashgraph engineers to make the network’s data available in a standardized format. The dataset enables users to search for transaction details, analyze network performance, and compare the metrics of the Hedera network, including transaction speed and cost, with those of other major blockchains.
BigQuery’s data warehousing tools enable large-scale queries using SQL-like commands, targeting developers and analysts conducting research across multiple networks. The integration also enables the tokenization of assets, the use of smart contracts, and the monitoring of decentralized finance (DeFi) activities on Hedera.
According to the foundation, the partnership with Google Cloud ensures that the dataset remains in sync with network upgrades and provides a consistent source of information for enterprise-grade applications, such as tracking supply chains and ESG reporting.
All extraction and deployment scripts used to build the dataset have been published as open-source. The approach enables community contributors to review and extend the code, keeping the database flexible as the network evolves. Future updates will be aligned with the ongoing changes in Hedera to ensure data accuracy in transactions and contracts.
According to the blog, Hedera’s inclusion in BigQuery aims to make blockchain data analysis more accessible while enhancing interoperability between networks. Facilitating side-by-side comparisons, it provides institutions and developers with a clearer picture of the cost efficiency, throughput, and adoption of different ecosystems.
The integration news coincided with HBAR’s upward price movement. The token reached $0.20, representing an 88% rebound from its annual low, and had a market capitalization of over $8 billion. That performance saw Hedera rise to the top 20 cryptocurrencies by market value.
Data from SoSoValue indicates that the recently launched Canary HBAR ETF has seen more than $71 million in inflows since its launch, with current assets of approximately $69 million, or 0.91% of HBAR’s total market capitalization. Over the last week, the price of HBAR has increased by almost 5%, marking an improvement in investment confidence.
Crypto analyst Javon Marks predicted that HBAR could reach $0.504 in the medium term, representing a potential gain of more than 150% if the bullish trend continues. He further commented that a confirmed breakout may set a long-term target near $0.962, highlighting optimism around Hedera’s growing institutional presence.
