Nervos Shared Node

Founded in 2018, Nervos network is a dual-layer, open-source blockchain. Nervos utilizes a collection of protocols allowing digital assets stored on the blockchain. The protocols enable top-scale interoperability, security and permissionless nature along with smart contract support.

Via Nervos, users can select any cryptocurrency and interface but still remain connected to the outer crypto space, thus they are able to work with multiple software programs under one roof. Besides, the Nervos network runs on the optimized Nakamoto consensus supported with ASIC-based Proof-of-Work, providing high-quality security and the ability to create decentralized applications of all kinds.

Due to its layered nature, Nervos allows scaling via Layer 2, and the first layer refers to the underlying blockchain architecture called CKB, or Common Knowledge Base. It uses its own CKB token to maintain the proper functioning of the platform.

GetBlock clients can start experimenting with their dApps on the Nervos network by purchasing a Nervos shared node via the website.

It focuses on delivering top-notch interoperability for developers. According to the platform’s whitepaper, Nervos’s one-of-a-kind infrastructure currently has no competitors on the market due to the absence of similar types of products. Nervos seeks to become “Your Universal Passport” to the blockchain. Developers receive unmatched flexibility and scalability.

Nervos’s unique dual-layer architecture allows for the implementation of the Proof-of-Work consensus along with a reduced amount of energy needed to carry out transactions. This is possible through the use of Layer 2, aka the scaling layer, which works vertically to meet users’ requirements.

Nervos uses two types of nodes - full and light - to sustain the operational state of the platform. Full nodes work to verify new blocks and pass on transactions in the network, which are then processed by miners. In turn, light nodes are mostly intended to operate on mobile devices. They are limited in capacity. Light nodes’ main purpose is to allow nearly all sorts of users to become part of the Nervos ecosystem.

GetBlock is a pioneer blockchain nodes provider for over 40 networks. GetBlock’s top-tier infrastructure is a reliable and efficient solution for developers. One of the most popular services on GetBlock is the shared nodes support.

By purchasing a blockchain’s shared node clients do not have to run self-hosted nodes anymore. They gain access to the blockchain architecture almost immediately, thus getting a chance to test out their dApps under realistic blockchain conditions.

Nervos shared nodes, provided by GetBlock, is an API-driven toolkit with all the necessary tools for developers, which they share with their peers. This option is the perfect solution for anyone working on building start-up decentralized software.
