ECAD Infra + Tezos

Tezos Infrastructure

Public RPC nodes for the Tezos ecosystem.

Since 2018, the ECAD Infra team has delivered high-throughput public infrastructure for the Tezos ecosystem.

Tezos Public RPC Service Retiring May 31, 2026

After eight years of providing free, high-throughput public RPC nodes to the Tezos community, ECAD Infra's public RPC service will be retired on May 31, 2026. The Tezos Foundation has chosen not to renew funding for this service.

We are grateful to the Tezos Foundation for their long-running support, which made it possible to serve the developers, wallets, and applications that have relied on us across the ecosystem.

We are, however, disappointed by this decision. Independent RPC nodes running on dedicated infrastructure outside the hyperscalers are what keeps this ecosystem meaningfully decentralized. Losing them concentrates the network on a handful of cloud providers. We think the Foundation is making the wrong call here, and we'd like to see it reversed.

If you depend on our RPC endpoints, please migrate to an alternative provider before May 31, 2026.

Public Baker Winding Down

The ECAD Infra public baker is no longer active. If you are currently staking with us, you must switch to a different baker to continue earning rewards. Visit tzkt.io/bakers to learn more about the public bakers you can stake with.

Public RPC Endpoints

Free access to Tezos RPC nodes for developers and users.

Mainnet

https://mainnet.tezos.ecadinfra.com

Ghostnet

https://ghostnet.tezos.ecadinfra.com

Shadownet Recommended

https://shadownet.tezos.ecadinfra.com

Developers should use Shadownet instead of Ghostnet for testing.

Important Notes

Rolling Nodes

Our public nodes are rolling nodes, which retain a limited amount of blockchain history. For historical queries beyond this limit, alternative nodes may be required.

Cloudflare Security

We use Cloudflare for load balancing and security. If you encounter difficulties accessing the RPC nodes, try accessing them from a different IP address.

404 Not Found Errors

If an RPC returns a 404 error, the path may not be enabled on our nodes. If this endpoint works on other nodes, reach out to [email protected] and we'll work to enable access where reasonable.
