About Chainstack
Chainstack is a blockchain node platform that powers global Web3 applications across fintech, DeFi, wallets, custodians, gaming, AI agents, trading, and analytics.
Chainstack's core products include Global Node, low-latency RPC endpoints for everyday workloads; Dedicated Node, single-tenant nodes with guaranteed resources for heavy workloads; reliable infrastructure built for trading bots and MEV strategies; and Unlimited Node, an add-on for unmetered request scaling. Together with Chainstack Self-Hosted for teams that need infrastructure on their own premises, these products cover every stage from prototyping to institutional-scale deployment.
Chainstack supports major blockchain networks, including Ethereum, Solana, BNB Chain, Polygon, Hyperliquid, Arc, Robinhood Chain, and other EVM-based and non-EVM chains, with elastic (auto-scaling) and dedicated node instances across mainnet and testnet. For Solana-focused trading and MEV operators, Chainstack offers the Yellowstone gRPC Geyser plugin for real-time on-chain data streaming and Jito ShredStream for low-latency transaction propagation.
Deployment options span the public cloud, preferred service providers, or fully self-hosted infrastructure, all managed through a single console with standardized node management across chains and environments. Core infrastructure features include global load-balanced RPC endpoints, blockchain data APIs, node monitoring, and request-unit-based usage tracking, keeping performance predictable and costs transparent as usage grows.
Chainstack offers a free Developer plan alongside paid Growth, Pro, Business, and Enterprise plans, so teams can start building at no cost and scale into preferred infrastructure setup as usage grows.
Teams cut time-to-market, cost, and risk with a single platform for blockchain nodes, whether in the cloud, through a preferred service provider, or self-hosted. Standardized node management across chains and environments puts reliability on autopilot and keeps performance predictable.
Operators get control and transparency, while developers get a consistent way to build and scale. Fintech companies, DeFi protocols, wallets, custodians, trading firms, analytics platforms, and Web3 service providers running fleets use Chainstack as the fastest way to run reliable, predictable blockchain nodes at scale.

"Solid Solana/EVM RPC. Reliable Endpoints and Good Latency" 5 out of 5 stars Posted 2026-11-11
Pros: My tracker watches Pump.fun around the clock, new launches, curve progression, graduations and Chainstack endpoints have been the reliable part of that pipeline, zero unexplained outages in about three months of continuous polling. consistent res across long pollin sessions, great uptime on EVM side project too
Cons: tight cap on the free tier. . not sure if there is a PAYG payment model
Overall: I have used Chainstack for about three months as the RPC layer for a Solana-only workload, tracking Pump.fun launches, bondingcurve progress and liquidity movement to pumpswap. easy setup, great uptime. It is a good fit for continuous monitoring workloads.

"Revisited Chainstack - huge improvements" 5 out of 5 stars Posted 2026-11-11
Pros: - Since my last experience the latency became so much better for almost every protocol
- UI improved by a lot
- UX imrpoved also - Multichain API is a life-changer for me
- Still the cheapest option across major (reliable and trustworthy) providersCons: None so far, the quality of service improved so much i wasn't expecting that
Overall: Best bang for the buck RPC provider by a huge margin. 1st or 2nd in terms of latency in US across almost every protocol i use: Solana, Eth, BNB, Robinhood, Hyperliquid, Base

"Stable uptime" 4 out of 5 stars Posted 2026-10-31
Pros: months of outage free rotation across Robinhood endpoints used by my app, verified daily by automated probe. endpoints are honest, eth_getLogs never returned fabricated empty results (unlike some competitors).
good multi-chain coverage, crypto payment support.Cons: developer tier has no archive data (~120 blocks of history reachable) and a 25 RPS ceiling, so heavy backfill/replay workloads hit the wall. 3M RU/month is small for crawler-style workloads.
Overall: Reliable, predictable endpoints in production for north of two months now.

"Reliable RPC with predictable pricing" 5 out of 5 stars Posted 2025-08-13
Pros: The unlimited node takes away the pressure of managing request limits, and latency has been consistently low. The interface is simple enough to navigate without being cluttered, and chain coverage is broad enough for most of my work
Cons: The dashboard could look a bit more modern, and I’d like to see more niche chains supported out of the box, but overall those are minor issues compared to the reliability I’ve had
Overall: Comparing it to the other RPC providers I’ve used, Chainstack has been more stable and straightforward to work with. The flat monthly fee makes costs easy to plan for, and getting new endpoints up is quick. I’ve used it across different projects, including some running on Base and Polygon, and the performance has stayed strong even when traffic picks up

"The best RPC provider for Base" 5 out of 5 stars Posted 2025-08-13
Pros: As for me, the price meets the service quality: low-latency and reliable RPC endpoints, fast support and clean UI for node performance monitoring
Cons: There are not so many marketplace add-ons as expected.
Overall: I am completely satisfied provided RPC connectivity, no need to check the service all the time and have a long conversations with support. Everything works great!

"Best Block Chain Infrastructure" 5 out of 5 stars Posted 2022-03-07
Pros: Chainstack has some of the most reliable services offered in web3. Along with spectacular customer service! They support the most protocols, and offer the most support options out of any other infra provider.
Cons: I wish someone would have told me about Chainstack before I tried any other services.
Overall: Not a single complaint; uptime is phenomenal, and customer service is beyond professional. I wish I would have started using Chainstack sooner.
