GetBlock Launches Axelar RPC Node Access

GetBlock launches Axelar RPC endpoints and nodes

GetBlock is expanding its Web3 infrastructure platform with the addition of Axelar support, providing developers and enterprises with production-ready API access to one of the most advanced cross-chain interoperability networks in the ecosystem.

TL;DR

Developers can now access Axelar network infrastructure through GetBlock's managed API service.

Instant API access: Connect to Axelar mainnet via JSON-RPC and REST endpoints

Isolated infrastructure: Dedicated nodes deployed across three global regions (New York, Frankfurt, Singapore) with full customization options

Access to both the current blockchain state and full historical data, enabling everything from live transaction processing to analytics

Access your GetBlock account to generate Axelar RPC endpoints or configure a private node.

Axelar RPC live on GetBlock

GetBlock starts providing managed RPC endpoints and private nodes that let developers build tooling, dApps, and services that rely on Axelar’s cross-chain primitives – all without running their own infrastructure.

The Shared Node service is providing developers with ready-to-use Axelar RPC endpoints that connect to GetBlock's managed node infrastructure. Users receive unique endpoint URLs supporting both JSON-RPC and REST API protocols for full and archive node queries. Access is available starting from a free plan.

GetBlock's Dedicated Node service provides private servers – full and archive Axelar nodes – deployable in New York, Frankfurt, or Singapore to ensure proximity to your application servers and get better latency.

Private nodes are fully customizable, allowing customers to adjust parameters for specific technical requirements, compliance needs, security protocols, or performance optimizations.

How to start using Axelar RPC API

Sign in to your GetBlock dashboard to find the Axelar node endpoints and start calling them. It takes three simple steps:

Create your free GetBlock account or access your existing dashboard

Open the endpoint setup menu and select Axelar mainnet

Generate your JSON‑RPC or REST endpoints

GetBlock's Axelar endpoints support the full range of Axelar-native methods, including querying bridge transactions, checking General Message Passing (GMP) status, and interacting with Axelar's gateway contracts across connected chains.

Setting up a private Axelar node access

Dedicated Axelar nodes also deploy through GetBlock's dashboard in four steps:

Select Axelar mainnet from the Dedicated Nodes dashboard and start configuring

Set a deployment region (Frankfurt, New York, Singapore) and node specifications

Adjust the subscription terms

Complete checkout so GetBlock starts provisioning your dedicated hardware

Standard deployments typically complete within several days. Dedicated customers can also request tailored deployments and integrations to fit their stack. Use the Support or Help button on your dashboard or reach out to the GetBlock team directly to discuss customizations and SLAs.

What is Axelar?

Axelar is a decentralized interoperability network that lets blockchains talk to one another in a secure, programmatic way – connecting EVM-compatible chains, Cosmos-style chains, and other high-value ecosystems like Sui, Stellar, XRPL, and Hyperliquid.

Unlike simple bridges, Axelar enables cross-chain application logic and seamless UX with primitives like:

General Message Passing (GMP) for arbitrary cross-chain contract calls and messaging

ITS (Interchain Token Service) for cross-chain token availability

Gas Service and Express (Intents) mechanisms to speed execution and offer flexible gas payment models

Mobius Development Stack (MDS) to make cross-chain connectivity more scalable and customizable

Axelar provides documented gateway contracts and tooling that simplify common GMP flows, building and monitoring asset transfers, creating Interchain Tokens, and interacting with Axelar services from your dApp.

Launched back in February 2022, the network has processed over $13 billion in cumulative cross-chain volume across over 80 interconnected blockchains and enters 2026 with strong momentum. The current roadmap is focused on strengthening economic security, enabling gasless bridging and smoother UX, and building interchain financial primitives. The team also emphasises upgrades for privacy and compliance so the network can support larger institutional pilots and regulated asset issuances.

By adding Axelar to its supported networks, GetBlock gives teams a faster path to production-ready cross-chain infrastructure.
