Events Overview
Event streaming flips the interaction model by delivering blockchain events directly to customers. Currently, the delivery is limited to webhooks. Customers will have to register a webhook in order to receive blockchain events.
Blockchain events are delivered in near real-time as they happen on the chain. This enables an event-driven architecture where customers receive only the data they're interested in and only when relevant. Customers can control which events will be sent by event streaming. It works on a conditional basis that is reflected in the form of rules and variables.

Config API
The Config API is the main entry point for initiating your journey with event streaming. The main URL for accessing the Config API is:
https://svc.blockdaemon.com/streaming/v2
Allow-listed IPs
To enhance security and prevent DDoS attacks, allow-list the following IP addresses that will hit your Events Webhook endpoints:
35.245.225.13134.150.141.9134.85.141.205
