Lava Network
Lava connects dapps to a decentralized network of RPC Providers for fast, reliable & private access.

What is Lava Network?
Lava optimally routes RPC relays through a decentralized network of top providers, which are rewarded according to their quality of service. This results in lower costs for developers, faster response times, enhanced reliability and greater privacy for user queries. Lava coordinates nodes and apps to create the open standard for blockchain access, already supporting 28+ chains and helped by a community of open-source contributors.
