Terra (LUNA) node is a new version of Terra blockchain re-launched after collapse of UST in May, 2022. New blockchain is dubbed Terra while the old version re-branded to Terra Classic. Technically, it is a complex of hardware and software components that participate in the Terra blockchain network, validating transactions and maintaining the network's integrity.

How to run a Terra (LUNA) node?

To run a Terra (LUNA) node, you need to run a physical or virtual server, set up the necessary software, sync with the blockchain, and maintain a stable internet connection to contribute to the network's consensus mechanism.

What is a Terra full node?

A Terra full node is a complete copy of the Terra blockchain, storing and validating all transaction data, enabling users to access and interact with the entire blockchain history.

What is an RPC in Terra?

RPC in Terra, or Remote Procedure Call for Terra blockchain, is a communication protocol that allows external applications to interact with a Terra node, enabling them to request data or perform actions on the blockchain.

How does Terra API work?

Terra API works by providing a set of functions and endpoints that developers can utilize to interact with the Terra blockchain, such as retrieving account information, executing transactions, or querying blockchain data, enabling the integration of Terra's functionality into external applications.

Terra RPC: Why should you choose it?

Terra (LUNA) RPC API connects dApps to a new version of Terra blockchain, a popular hosting platform for dApps that collapsed in May, 2022. New version retained the historical name of Terra while the original chain exists as Terra Classic.

Before the crash of UST stablecoin Terra had been the third largest blockchain by TVL only surpassed by Bitcoin and Ethereum. Anchor Protocol (ANC) was the largest DeFi built on Terra RPC.
Just like the previous version, Terra (LUNA) is fully EVM-compatible. It supports dozens of third-party dApps and in-house services TFM, Coinhall, SmartStake, explorers Terrascope and Terrafinder, bridges Satellite and Portal, and so on.
In December 2022, Terra launched Terra Station, “an interface to Web3”, which is technically an interchain wallet for dApps and end users.
