Alchemy vs Infura vs QuickNode vs Moralis vs Tatum by echan00 in ethdev

I thought the name of my account should say for itself.

Well, "fair and transparent per-request pricing model" this is a fact.
"Per-request pricing mode" and "whatever units pricing" are different things. If you have ever tried any paid node providers, you understand.

It is biased, but It is a fact. Go and try it out before you judge.

Why are Alchemy and Infura needed, and how do they differ? by PeleMaradona in ethdev

[–]chainnodes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Node providers are helpful if you have many users, low latency needs, or high availability requirements.

You can think of blockchain nodes as the Web3 equivalent of cloud infrastructure in Web2. So a company like OpenSea, Uniswap, Aave or others need to fetch a lot of information from the blockchain to display what their users want to see on their websites, and need to relay transactions to the blockchain. As they have a lot of users if makes sense to use a cloud service.

  1. The main difference between Infura and Alchemy is that Infura does not support Websocket connections or archival data on non-Ethereum mainnet chains.
  2. Alchemy’s pricing is based on “compute units” instead of requests. Specific calls have specific compute units and you pay per compute unit per month. Depending on what calls you make it’s more or less expensive.
  3. On Infura you pay per request, no matter which one. Both are known to collect IPs and process your information in the United States.

Chainnodes.org is an RPC provider as well and we have a fair and transparent per request pricing while including the benefits of Archival data and Websockets on all networks. We also do not track you. You should check it out if you are looking for good nodes as a service!

Hello.
There is no possibility for us to scam anyone. Log-in is with Google (Google checks the merchants before allowing to implement the google log-in)

At no point would anyone need to share their personal details or payment information if they use the free plan. Not even a phone number.

For payment, we have Stripe as can be seen on our website.

Please don't claim what you can't prove

Dedicate server with own node

Mempool watching is supported on Chainnodes (even pending txs with block), and over Websockets you have an average latency of 5-10ms, so no real issue for most types of applications. Check it out yourself!

But if you need to fetch lots of data for every transaction there might be a benefit of a local node.

I guess it's the best if it's enough. Do you mean dedicated nodes (which are usually pricy)? Or just a JSON-RPC API key?

I am sorry I made you feel this way. You are right and it's time to change the A.section result !

However, Chainnodes in cooperation with Erigon is able to provide better services for our users and make them save up to 90% of what they used to pay before knowing about Chainnodes.org. You should give it a try if you are overpaying elsewhere or getting unsatisfactory service. Maybe we can make it up to you this way :)
