# Universal API

> A unified, multichain API for accessing blockchain data across 30+ EVM networks, Solana, and Bitcoin through a single, consistent interface.

### Overview

The **Universal API** is Moralis’ unified, multichain Data API, designed to provide a **single, consistent interface** for accessing blockchain data across **30+ supported chains**, including **EVM networks, Solana, and Bitcoin**.

It standardizes complex on-chain data into **clean, developer-friendly formats**, allowing you to build multichain applications without handling chain-specific differences.

***

### What the Universal API Is For

The Universal API is intended for:

* Applications that support **EVM, Solana, and Bitcoin**
* Teams building **chain-agnostic** products
* Use cases where a **consistent data model** across chains is more important than chain-specific depth

Where possible, new endpoints are introduced in the Universal API first.

***

### Consolidation Strategy

Moralis is **gradually consolidating cross-chain functionality into the Universal API**.

This means:

* New multichain endpoints are added to the Universal API
* Existing EVM- or Solana-specific endpoints may be mirrored or superseded over time
* No breaking changes are introduced without notice

The Universal API represents the **long-term direction** for multichain data access at Moralis.

***

### When to Use the Universal API

Use the Universal API if you:

* Need the **same endpoint to work across EVM, Solana, and Bitcoin**
* Want to minimize chain-specific logic
* Are building dashboards, analytics, or wallets that span multiple ecosystems

***

### When Not to Use It

For advanced, chain-specific features, you may still want:

* **EVM API** for deep EVM-only functionality
* **Solana Data API** for Solana-specific data and semantics
* **Bitcoin API** for Bitcoin-specific endpoints including the [xpub utility](/data-api/bitcoin/utility/addresses-from-xpub)
