Running your own blockchain nodes just got simpler.
Our goal is to be the go-to blockchain node platform across any protocol and environment. Today, we take another step toward that.
Introducing Chainstack Self-Hosted.

๐ ๐ ๐ We have added #Hyperliquid EVM to Whale Alert!
Big transfers of $HYPE and stablecoins will now be reported on Whale Alert. Analytics/alerts are available on our dashboard: whale-alert.io.
A big thanks to @ChainstackHQ for providing top-notch infrastructure!
The mempool data you rent is worse than the mempool data you own.
Double-spend detection in seconds, not minutes. Broadcast paths you control. Reasons @OpenNode, @Strike, @coinbase, @krakenfx, and @BitGo run their own Bitcoin nodes.
Chainstack Self-Hosted now ships Bitcoin
The fastest @Arbitrum RPC provider?
We ran the numbers ๐
Chainstack leads across regions:
- Global: 0.31 ๐ฅ
- US West: 0.31 ๐ฅ
- Asia: 0.25 ๐ฅ

For customers planning their next step, @ChainstackHQ is ready to help with the transition ๐
Migration guide ๐๐ผ
Robinhood built Robinhood Chain on Arbitrum Orbit.
Uniswap built Unichain on OP Stack ๐ฆ
Post-EIP-4844, fees between @arbitrum and @Optimism converged. The L2 choice in 2026 is ecosystem fit, not gas.

Ethereum's biggest bottleneck isn't gas fees. It's the EVM itself.
Stack-based, 256-bit words, built before zk-proofs existed. Result: an @ethereum block is up to 800ร more expensive to zk-prove on the EVM than on RISC-V.
That's why @VitalikButerin proposed replacing it ๐งฑ
This is already shipping โก
@SuccinctLabs SP1 Hypercube proves Ethereum L1 blocks in real time on 16 GPUs. Formally verified with @Nethermind and the Ethereum Foundation.
@LineaBuild deploys RISC-V proving on mainnet by end of summer 2026, first major rollup where devs meet
Full breakdown by @JKim_Tran of the EVM bottlenecks, the zkVMs racing to prove blocks, and what changes for builders on Ethereum and Linea over the next 12 months.

Chainstack is now a @wormhole Guardian๐ก๏ธ
Wormhole connects 45+ chains. Chainstack is now one of the 19 independent operators that observe events and sign every cross-chain message. 13 of 19 signatures must land before a message executes on its destination.
Proud to help build
Every `poll for finalized` loop on @solana is about to become dead code.
With Alpenglow:
โ finality drops from 12.8s to 100-150ms
โ `confirmed` and `finalized` collapse into one certificate
โ validator vote transactions (~75% of Solana tx) move off-chain into BLS certificates
Three things to audit before mainnet:
๐น Replace `signature status` polling with `signatureSubscribe`
๐น Shorten cache TTLs to under 250ms or add certificate-aware invalidation
๐น Any logic treating `confirmed` and `finalized` as different states, since both converge
SIMD-0326 passed with 98.27% validator approval, currently on @anza_xyz's test cluster.
Mainnet target late Q3 / early Q4 2026, gated on SIMD-0387 landing on public testnet.
