Blockbook
Indexed addresses, transactions and balances for UTXO chains.
Advanced Analytics
Private Grafana with latency percentiles and error rates per method, key and region.
Automatic RPC Failover
If your node degrades, traffic shifts to shared RPC and back, on the same endpoint URL.
Custom Endpoint URL
Serve the node from your own domain and move the access token from the URL to a header.
Dedicated Ingress Proxy
A proxy fleet that serves only you: TLS, auth and rate limits isolated from other users.
IP Allowlist
Only approved IPs and CIDR ranges get in, so a leaked token alone won’t reach your node.
Nonstandard Client Support
Pinned client versions, forks and custom flags, run and maintained by our engineers.
Unified Multichain Endpoint
One URL and credential for all your dedicated nodes, with the chain set by subdomain.
Zero-Hop Node Access
Requests hit your node directly, past the gateway and load balancer, for lower latency.

The 24 Best Web3 Wallets for 2026: Expert ReviewDec 16, 2025Everything you need to know about Bitcoin RPC nodes, network access, and choosing the right setup for your app.
Bitcoin is a proof of work Layer 1 secured by SHA-256 mining since its genesis block on January 3, 2009. Blocks target 10 minutes, and settlement is probabilistic: many exchanges wait for six confirmations, about an hour. The chain averages around 6 TPS, and median fees ran near $1 in October 2026, so most small payments move over Lightning. Taproot, active since November 2021, added Schnorr signatures and cheaper multisig. Spot ETFs and corporate treasuries have become major holders, while Ordinals and Runes still compete for block space.
GetBlock runs Bitcoin Core nodes on mainnet and testnet, with JSON-RPC and REST on one API key. Dedicated Nodes deploy in Frankfurt, New York or Singapore for exchanges, custodians and payment providers, and Limitless Nodes give flat-rate throughput from 25 RPS in Frankfurt. Crypto AML Check screens Bitcoin addresses and transactions for sanctions and illicit funds, and GetBlock holds a SOC 2 Type II attestation.
