Have you ever wanted to create your own blockchain-based app, but were not sure, whether you would have enough time and resources to face up the challenge? We’ve found a way to make this path easy for you and are proud to introduce our newly launched project — GetBlock.io — a free solution to access full nodes of the most popular cryptocurrencies.
Overview
GetBlock is a service that provides connection for the major cryptocurrencies’ nodes. We support such tools like JSON-RPC, REST, and WebSockets, which facilitates direct synchronization with the blockchain. There is no need to run a node yourself, the platform allows you to connect to a blockchain via a full node without having to pay a fee.
Whether you want to launch your own wallet, cryptocurrency exchange, or Explorer, GetBlock is ready to offer its top-notch technology, specially designed tools and non-stop working servers located in Germany.
We are constantly developing and adding new nodes; on the contrary, the connection always stays put — fast, at a speed of 1 GB/sec, and secure, under 24/7 surveillance.
A free API key guarantees direct interaction with a blockchain — all you have to do is to connect to the desired node and make a request. The node will be integrated to your project within seconds, while GetBlock takes full care of its stability and reliable work.
