Quicknode

QuickNode has positioned itself as a critical infrastructure provider in the Web3 ecosystem. It was created to solve a common pain point: the challenge of reliably connecting to multiple blockchain networks while maintaining speed, stability, and scalability. Traditional node services often suffer from latency, complex setup, and inconsistent uptime, creating friction for developers trying to build next-gen dApps, DeFi protocols, and crypto platforms. QuickNode addresses this with its globally distributed, multi-cloud, auto-scaling network capable of processing over 400 billion API requests monthly.

The core offering of QuickNode is its Core RPC API, which provides fast, reliable access to read and write blockchain data across major networks such as Ethereum, Solana, Polygon, BNB Smart Chain, Arbitrum, and many others. These APIs outperform industry benchmarks with response times averaging 2.5x faster than competitors. In addition to general-purpose endpoints, QuickNode also delivers high-throughput data pipelines for real-time use cases via its Streams product, which supports live event tracking and historical backfills with guaranteed delivery and reorg handling.

Developers benefit from an ecosystem that supports everything from building trading bots and DeFi protocols to launching wallets, stablecoins, and even deploying custom rollups. With tailored APIs for different verticals—such as Solana’s Yellowstone gRPC for blazing-fast Solana data—QuickNode provides best-in-class performance for specialized use cases.

To ensure security and compliance, QuickNode has achieved SOC 1 Type 2, SOC 2 Type 2, and ISO 27001 certifications, meeting enterprise-grade standards that are critical for regulated industries. High-volume users, including some of the largest exchanges and data platforms, trust QuickNode’s infrastructure for its 99.99% uptime SLA and rapid support response times.

In a rapidly growing field, QuickNode’s closest alternatives include Alchemy, Infura, and Chainstack. While these platforms also offer blockchain infrastructure, QuickNode stands out by offering broader multi-chain support, faster response times, and deeper vertical integrations—especially for trading and real-time data use cases.
