Most blockchain data is technically public. Very little of it is actually ready to use.
This week we launched @blt.tempo_decoded on Baselight - a structured dataset that turns Tempo’s raw on-chain event logs into clean, queryable, AI/analytics-ready tables.
More sports. More onchain data. More surface area for AI.
Next week, Baselight adds the Ultimate Baseball Dataset, the Ultimate MMA / UFC Dataset, and Tempo blockchain data.
This week:
- 470B rows (+5B)
- 455K tables (+185)
- 70K datasets (+36)
Structured data, getting broader every week.

This is just one example - the same data can power your own dashboards, copilots, or agents.
Curious to see what you build on top of it 🚀
The same data powering dashboards can power agents.
And we keep adding more of it every week:
- 465,187,218,680 rows (+7B this week)
- 455,190 tables (+213)
- 69,885 datasets (+30)
That’s the direction: continuously expanding data, enabling intelligence everywhere.
Hot take: raw race results don’t tell the full story.
The real edge is in:
- consistency
- pit strategy
- marginal gains over time
That’s exactly what this dataset unlocks.
