GraphQL interface to Ethereum node data

Sure, that’s possible, but:

  1. It would require new index datastructures on disk.
  2. It wouldn’t work for transactions sent before the node was fast-synced without changes to the fast-sync protocol.
  3. It wouldn’t work for light nodes without changes to the LES protocol.

And for all of the reasons above, it’s totally out of scope for this EIP. :slight_smile:
