summary
Reservoir abstracts NFT complexity into a unified API that indexes on‑chain ownership plus off‑chain listings from OpenSea, Blur and pseudo‑swap pools, generates calldata and sequences approvals/transfers/signatures, and powers major wallets like MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet and Rainbow. A marketplace‑as‑a‑service is live and used by Magic Eden. New product Relay for cross‑chain moves money between rollups and chains to reduce liquidity fragmentation, evolving from NFT data indexing into multi‑chain payment rails.
