Introduction
Lava Network is restaking protocol for fast and reliable access to blockchains.
The protocol operates like a marketplace. Through Lava, any chain can attract, incentivize and aggregate Providers to offer data services, like RPC, to dapps and users. This approach means smaller, newer chains can quickly bootstrap fast, reliable and cost-efficient infrastructure.
RPC powers critical blockchain actions such as minting, staking, and swapping tokens. By offering high performance RPC, Lava aims to accelerate the onchain world.
This report summarizes the activity for Lava’s RPC Pools in October 2024. You can find previous summaries below:
