600M+ daily relays (API calls) administered over a decentralized node infrastructure worth over $580M
Pocket Network, an infrastructure middleware protocol which facilitates decentralized multichain blockchain access to developer applications in Web3, including Ethereum, Polygon, Avalanche, Solana, Fuse, OEC and Harmony, reported a surge in industry demand with a record of 3 billion relays serviced over the last 7 days. This achievement has seen numbers grow from 5M daily relays less than a year ago to 600M+ daily relays, a dramatic increase of 120x.
This latest surge was shown throughout the week when several single-day relay all-time high records were achieved, oftentimes consecutively. Relays are being serviced by hundreds – if not thousands – of independent node runners across 6 continents. 38K+ nodes are serving apps at once, rotated out every hour, and coordinated by a protocol that takes zero rent. This demand is agnostic to ma
