DRPC

dRPC was created to address one of the most critical and often overlooked challenges in the Web3 ecosystem: reliable, scalable, and decentralized access to blockchain nodes. Since its launch, the platform has rapidly evolved into a leading infrastructure provider by leveraging its core architectural components—Dproxy and a customized fork of Dshackle. These systems work in tandem to optimize request routing, enhance failover resilience, and dynamically select the best node based on latency, health, and blockchain sync status.

At the heart of dRPC’s architecture is its unique approach to decentralization. Rather than operating a single provider network, dRPC aggregates services from a variety of independent infrastructure partners. Each partner runs its own instance of Dshackle, allowing dRPC to ensure that requests are only routed to fully-synced, healthy, and efficient nodes. This enables seamless load balancing, failover handling, and customized routing depending on the request—whether it's transaction submission, balance queries, or accessing specific block data.

The platform’s central gateway, Dproxy, ensures high performance and fairness by continuously evaluating provider performance using a real-time rating system. It considers factors such as latency, uptime, capacity, and recent usage to dynamically assign requests to the best possible provider. Dproxy also manages critical platform logic including user authorization, compute unit tracking, and API key permissions, allowing for scalable use across teams and organizations.

dRPC also leads with privacy and protection. Its Privacy Shield ensures user IP addresses are only used for routing, not logged or tracked. At the same time, it features built-in MEV protection to defend against front-running attacks, integrating directly with services like Flashbots, MEVBlocker, and bloXroute. This makes dRPC a secure, performance-driven platform capable of serving over 3 billion requests per day.

Comparable platforms such as Infura, Alchemy, and Chainstack offer similar node access, but dRPC distinguishes itself with its emphasis on decentralization, dynamic routing, open-source integrations, and its commitment to community-powered infrastructure. As a result, dRPC is quickly becoming the go-to choice for developers and enterprises building resilient, scalable applications in the decentralized web.

dRPC provides a wide range of benefits and features that make it a top-tier choice in the Web3 infrastructure space:

• Enterprise-Grade Reliability: dRPC routes requests across a globally distributed network of over 50+ providers to ensure uptime, low latency, and resilience against node failure.
• One Endpoint for 90+ Chains: Access Ethereum, Solana, Arbitrum, zkSync, and more using a single, load-balanced RPC endpoint with no setup required.
• AI-Driven Load Balancing: Intelligent routing ensures every request is sent to the best-performing node based on location, node health, sync status, and latency.
• MEV & Front-running Protection: Built-in defenses using Flashbots, MEVBlocker, and bloXroute prevent sandwich attacks at the RPC level, increasing transaction security.
• Privacy by Design: User IP addresses are only used for optimal routing and are never stored or exposed to providers, ensuring maximum privacy.
• Pay-as-You-Go Pricing: Flexible plans starting at $6 per million requests, with no monthly commitments or hidden fees. Free tier available for public endpoints.
• Team Access & Role Management: Invite your team, assign permissions, and manage access with unlimited API keys and advanced usage controls.
• Advanced Analytics: Monitor usage, request patterns, and performance metrics in real-time with developer-friendly dashboards.
