SubQuery Network’s Decentralized RPCs Launches for Polkadot and Kusama

Web3 infrastructure provider SubQuery Network announced on Tuesday, June 11th, that it has launched two new RPCs for the Polkadot ecosystem.

In a press release shared with Cryptowisser, SubQuery Network said the two RPCs are available for Polkadot and Kusama and they are the first decentralized RPCs to be made available on the Substrate-based networks.

Thanks to this latest development, SubQuery now provides web3 infrastructure for almost 200 networks. The SubQuery Network is a globally distributed network of decentralized indexers and RPC providers. 

This makes it easier for dApps to access fast and reliable blockchain data on demand without introducing centralized points of control. With these integrations, developers building on Polkadot and Kusama can now utilize SubQuery’s decentralized RPC (Remote Procedure Call) nodes following their deployment.

While commenting on this latest development, SubQuery COO James Bayly said: 

"We are thrilled to be the first to provide decentralized RPCs for Polkadot on the SubQuery Network. Our node operators are already running RPCs and other nodes in multiple ecosystems, and, having emerged from the Polkadot ecosystem, we’re ideally placed to support Polkadot developers with their infrastructure."

SubQuery explained that launching decentralized RPCs is crucial to enabling blockchain projects to operate efficiently and draw data from multiple sources.

RPCs enable communication between blockchain nodes and external entities, paving the way for data retrieval, smart contract interactions, and transaction submissions. With RPCs, dApps no longer have to rely on centralized middleware with the risks this entails.

With SubQuery Network's decentralized RPCs, dApps will enjoy secure and efficient web3 communication. SubQuery first launched on the Polkadot network, releasing an indexer capable of connecting to its unique multi-chain architecture. However, it has since then integrated hundreds of networks, making it a leading indexer of web3 data based on chain support.

SubQuery Network provides indexed data to the global community in an incentivized and verifiable way. Its infrastructure plays a critical part in helping web3 transition to an open, efficient, and user-centric future.
