Pocket Network API
Blockchain · Development Tools
Pocket Network is a decentralized blockchain infrastructure protocol that provides RPC access to over 50 blockchains through a network of independent node operators rather than a centralized company. Unlike Alchemy, Infura, or QuickNode where a single company operates the node infrastructure and can theoretically restrict access Pocket Network is a blockchain protocol where thousands of independent node operators stake POKT tokens to serve RPC requests and earn token rewards.
Pocket Network API Highlights
Pocket Network API is verified for developer integrations in Nigeria and across African markets, providing documented endpoints, sandbox testing, and developer support.
API Key (Portal) or public endpoint
Public free endpoints. Portal plans for higher limits.

AWSPocket Network API is best for:
Web3 developers prioritizing decentralized, censorship-resistant node infrastructure where no single company controls access built on a blockchain protocol with independent node operators.
- Free public endpoints via Grove Portal
- Paid via POKT token or USD
- Decentralized protocol
Pocket Network API Core Features & Capabilities
Required Access Documents for Pocket Network API
- Grove Portal Account (Optional)OptionalPublic Pocket Network endpoints available without registration via Grove Portal (grove.city). For higher limits, create a Grove Portal account for a dedicated API key. No POKT tokens required for API usage.
Different Pocket Network API use cases
- Censorship-Resistant DApp for Nigerian Market:Use Pocket Network for truly decentralized RPC in a Nigerian DApp where censorship resistance is a core value no single company can block access, aligning with Web3 principles.
- Decentralized Infrastructure for Nigerian Web3 Protocol:Use Pocket Network as the RPC layer for a Nigerian-built blockchain protocol or DAO tooling where infrastructure decentralization is architecturally important to the project's values and trustlessness guarantees.
