Pocket Network

Pocket Network is the decentralized RPC layer of Web3 — a permissionless, fully open data delivery protocol built on Cosmos SDK and CometBFT (the Shannon upgrade, June 2025). 5,000+ independent supplier nodes serve relays across 60-69+ blockchains, metered in compute units at $1/billion and settled on-chain in POKT under deflationary tokenomics (PIP-41, 97.5% mint ratio). Grove (grove.city) is the for-profit infrastructure company that operates the largest gateway on the network — rpc.grove.city — and maintains PATH, the open-source Go gateway any operator can run to expose Pocket Network as a single HTTP endpoint. Grove offers free no-API-key per-IP public endpoints per chain (eth.rpc.grove.city, solana.rpc.grove.city, etc.) plus paid portal applications with relay analytics and SLAs. Together they form the canonical decentralized alternative to Alchemy / Infura / QuickNode for serving JSON-RPC, REST, and WebSocket traffic to any public blockchain.
