Why teams move from GetBlock

  • A lower entry price: $139/mo instead of $1,000/mo.
  • A backup node included in the price, not a failover you set up yourself.
  • Bigger prepay discounts: 15 percent off at 6 months and 25 percent off at 12, against 10 and 20 percent.
  • The price depends on the node type, not on a quote built from chain, client and region.

Switching from GetBlock

  1. 01

    Pick a chain and node type

    Choose a full, archive or validator node on a chain we support and pay in crypto for 1 to 12 months. Longer plans cost less each month.

  2. 02

    We set it up

    Your node is ready within 24 hours of payment. You get a private endpoint in your dashboard.

  3. 03

    Change the URL

    Our endpoint is standard JSON-RPC, so most apps only need the new URL. Test it, then cancel your GetBlock plan.
