Private BalanceAI RPC Endpoints on a Dedicated Node

BalanceAI is a decentralized, Substrate-based Proof of Stake protocol and marketplace for AI models and agents, with the native utility token BAI. A BalanceAI RPC node runs the Balance AI Core Node and exposes the APIs your apps and agents use to read chain data and broadcast transactions, so dApps, indexers, and dashboards get stable, predictable access.

Both apply. BalanceAI is a Substrate Proof of Stake chain, and its official explorer is the Polkadot.js apps UI pointed at the network RPC. The mainnet RPC also answers Ethereum-style JSON-RPC, for example eth_blockNumber, so ethers.js and Substrate tooling can both connect. Tell us which interface your app calls and we configure the node to match.

Choose a full node when you mainly need current state, recent blocks, and transaction submission. Choose an archive node when you need deep historical state for explorers, indexers, analytics, or long-range backfills. A dedicated setup lets you pick the right tier without sharing limits, and resize CPU, RAM, and NVMe as your query depth grows.

Yes. We provision single-tenant bare metal for BalanceAI validators with full root, KVM, and IPMI access, so you hold the keys while we keep the hardware healthy. Dedicated CPU and NVMe keep NPoS staking and block participation steady, and fast recovery tooling minimizes downtime if a node needs a restart.

Yes. You can expose the standard RPC and WebSocket ports used by Substrate-based nodes and keep everything else closed. We recommend exposing only what you need, putting a reverse proxy in front, and restricting access to known IPs. With full root access you define firewall rules that match your risk level and traffic profile.

BalanceAI has not yet published a fixed hardware table, so we size conservatively from Substrate node norms: fast NVMe, ample RAM for caching, and a stable network. Many teams start with 8+ cores and 32 to 64 GB RAM for a full node, then scale to 16+ cores, 64 to 128 GB RAM, and larger NVMe for archive or heavy concurrency, without changing providers.

No. Unlike shared RPC providers that bill per "compute unit" and throttle you past a quota, a dedicated node is a flat monthly price with unlimited requests and zero overages. One node equals all the throughput your hardware can serve. That makes budgeting predictable and removes the surprise bills that come with usage-based RPC pricing.

Shared RPC pools serve thousands of customers from pooled infrastructure, so you inherit rate limits, noisy-neighbor latency, and compute-unit billing. A RedSwitches node runs on single-tenant bare metal that is yours alone: reserved CPU, RAM, and NVMe, a dedicated 10/25 Gbps port, and a private endpoint you control. Performance tracks your hardware, not another tenant's traffic.

No. We provision from current snapshots so your node is live in hours rather than syncing from genesis for days. You can run it yourself with full root access, or choose our fully managed option where our engineers handle the sync, updates, and monitoring. Either way you receive a working private endpoint, not an empty server.

Yes. With 20+ Tier III locations across the US, EU, Asia, and Australia you can place your node in the same region as your users or a chain's sequencer to cut round-trip latency. Tell us your target region and we will recommend the closest facility. You can also run multi-region nodes for redundancy and split read and write endpoints.
