Checking RPC status…

Solana RPC that just works

Production-grade JSON-RPC and WebSocket endpoints for builders who need consistent latency, transparent limits, and crypto-native billing.

Built for Solana developers

Every piece of the stack optimized for apps that talk to Solana all day.

Jito ShredStream powered

Direct shred ingestion from the Jito Block Engine, bypassing standard Turbine. gRPC stream first-detection lands at <50ms P99 from the EU — competitive with Frankfurt-colocated providers.

Full JSON-RPC + WebSockets

Every Solana RPC method supported — reads, writes, program accounts, token accounts — plus low-latency WSS subscriptions for logs and account updates.

Transparent rate limits

Per-key quotas enforced at the edge with clear headers. No surprise throttling, no shared noisy-neighbor issues.

Pay in SOL or USDC

On-chain subscriptions with Solana Pay. QR code or connect Phantom/Solflare — your API key is issued the moment the tx lands.

Usage analytics

Per-key request counts, errors and bandwidth — 30-min to 7-day chart, toggleable keys, live refresh. Know exactly what your app is doing.

Built by validator operators

Bare-metal nodes in NL (Amsterdam) and US (North Carolina), run by the same team operating a community-oriented Jito-Solana validator at 0% commission and shipping dashboards and tools the Solana operator community uses every day. Same infra discipline runs your RPC.

From signup to production in minutes

No sales calls, no month-long onboarding. Pay on-chain, get a key, start shipping.

Frequently asked questions

Still have questions? Get in touch.

Which Solana methods are supported?

All standard JSON-RPC methods on Mainnet-Beta: getAccountInfo, getTransaction, sendTransaction, simulateTransaction, getProgramAccounts, token methods, and WebSocket subscriptions (accountSubscribe, logsSubscribe, signatureSubscribe).

How do I authenticate requests?

Pass your API key as a URL parameter (?api_key=vb_...) or as an X-Api-Key header. Both are enforced at the edge; keys can be rotated or revoked from your dashboard.

What happens when I hit my rate limit?

Requests over the limit return HTTP 429. Rate limit state is shared across all keys on a plan. Upgrade anytime to increase throughput or request Enterprise for custom limits.

Are payments refundable?

Subscriptions run for 30 days from payment. Renewals extend on top of your remaining time. We do not issue refunds once a subscription is active.

Which regions can I connect to?

Two production regions: NL (Amsterdam) at rpc-nl.validblocks.com and US (North Carolina) at rpc-us.validblocks.com. Each plan can hold a subscription per region — pick the one closest to your users, or run both for failover.

Do you offer WebSocket subscriptions?

Yes — connect to wss://rpc-nl.validblocks.com:8900/?api_key=… or wss://rpc-us.validblocks.com:8900/?api_key=… and use standard pubsub methods like accountSubscribe and logsSubscribe.

How fast is the gRPC stream?

Both regions ingest shreds directly from the Jito Block Engine via shredstream-proxy, bypassing standard Turbine. Measured from a German client (geyserbench, 1000 tx, account=pAMM, commitment=processed): NL P50 first-detection 20ms, P99 44ms — within ~20ms of Frankfurt-colocated comparison endpoints. US results vary by client location; for the fairest comparison, run benchmarks from a US machine.

Can I archive historical state?

Enterprise plans can request archival history and custom indexes. Standard plans serve the most recent window with full program-id indexing.
