SubQuery Network introduces first decentralized RPCs for Polkadot and Kusama

SubQuery Network, a Web3 infrastructure provider, has introduced two new decentralized Remote Procedure Calls (RPCs) for the Polkadot ecosystem.

These RPCs, available for Polkadot or Kusama, mark the first decentralized RPCs on Substrate-based networks.

Supporting nearly 200 networks, SubQuery operates a globally distributed network of decentralized indexers and RPC providers. Decentralized applications (dapps) can receive blockchain data efficiently and reliably over this network, eliminating the need for centralized access points.

RPCs play a crucial role in blockchain and act as a communication bridge between external entities and nodes on the blockchain. They help with data retrieval, smart contract execution, and transaction processing. With the introduction of SubQuery’s decentralized RPCs, these core functions are now more accessible and secure for developers on the Polkadot and Kusama networks.

“We are excited to be the first to provide decentralized RPCs for Polkadot on the SubQuery Network,” said SubQuery COO James Bayly. “Our node operators already run RPCs and other nodes across multiple ecosystems, and as we emerge from the Polkadot ecosystem, we are ideally positioned to support Polkadot developers with their infrastructure.”

Developers working on Polkadot or Kusama can now use SubQuery’s decentralized RPC nodes. SubQuery Network reduces risks by reducing dapps’ dependence on centralized middleware by offering decentralized RPCs.

Blockchain RPC networks

The efficient operation of blockchain projects depends on new Polkadot RPCs managed by more than 30 independent Node Operators. These RPCs enable blockchain projects to access data from multiple sources.

SubQuery Network’s decentralized, remote procedure calls (RPCs) enhance secure and efficient communication web3, facilitating the robust and transparent operations vital to the success of Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePINs).

SubQuery initially appeared only on Polkadot. It provided an indexer that could connect to Polkadot’s multi-chain structure. The company has now expanded its scope to include hundreds of networks as it strives to become the leader in Web3 data and infrastructure.
