When a public Althea L1 Mainnet RPC is enough, and when it is not
A public endpoint is the right tool for adding Althea L1 Mainnet to a wallet, a quick script or a test. It is shared with everyone else who has the same URL, rate limited, and run by a third party who can change or retire it. Once an application, a bot or an indexer depends on the answer, move it to an endpoint that only you use.

The Althea L1 Mainnet RPC node endpoint provider that hands you the keys.
Your Althea L1 Mainnet endpoint lives on your own domain, locked to the IPs you allowlist, served from the city you choose across 18 Tier-3 datacentre locations. Live p50 and p99 latency for your node streams to your dashboard, and the 99.99% SLA applies in writing. New to dedicated nodes? The dedicated RPC node guide covers the model end to end.
What you get on day one
- An HTTPS endpoint for your Althea L1 Mainnet node, on your own domain if you want one
- Access locked to the IP addresses you allowlist
- A login to the Argusnodes dashboard: live p50 and p99 for your node, your orders and payments
- Engineers on ticket, chat, Telegram or Slack, 24/7
Your first request, once the node is live (rpc.yourdomain.com stands in for your endpoint):
curl https://rpc.yourdomain.com \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"eth_blockNumber","params":[]}'Network facts on this page come from the canonical Ethereum chain registry (ethereum-lists/chains) and are re-pulled on a schedule. Althea L1 Mainnet's own site is at althea.net. Block explorer: mintscan.io.
Althea L1 Mainnet dedicated node: the questions buyers ask.
What is a private Althea L1 Mainnet RPC endpoint?
An RPC endpoint that only your applications use. It sits on a dedicated Althea L1 Mainnet node that is yours alone, on your own domain if you want one, and answers only the IP addresses you allowlist. No other customer's traffic shares the machine, so nobody else's burst becomes your latency, and there is no rate limit to hit.
How long until my Althea L1 Mainnet node is live?
As soon as it has synced with the Althea L1 Mainnet network, and we tell you the moment it is ready. Sync time depends on the node type, so your quote carries an estimate for your exact setup rather than a number that is sometimes wrong. The quote itself lands within the hour, around the clock.
What is included in the from $99/mo for my Althea L1 Mainnet node?
Everything the node can do, with the premium add-ons other providers bill separately included free: unlimited RPS, every RPC method including debug and trace, unlimited connections, your own domain with an IP allowlist, 18 cities to choose from, a 99.99% SLA with credits, 24/7 engineer support and live p50/p99 in your dashboard. There is no add-on price list because nothing is an add-on.
What hardware will my Althea L1 Mainnet node run on?
A machine that meets Althea L1 Mainnet's official requirements with headroom on top. We never build at the minimum, because a node sized to the minimum becomes the bottleneck the day the chain grows. Your quote names the exact CPU, RAM and NVMe before you pay.
Can I test a Althea L1 Mainnet node before I order?
We do not run free trials. Ask us for a latency report for Althea L1 Mainnet from the city you want and you see the numbers before you order. Billing is monthly with no lock-in, so you can cancel at the end of any month.
Does Argusnodes run Althea L1 Mainnet archive nodes and trace methods?
Archive support on Althea L1 Mainnet is confirmed against its documentation as part of your quote. Every method the client exposes is on by default at no extra charge.
Can I migrate my Althea L1 Mainnet endpoint from QuickNode, GetBlock, Chainstack or another provider?
Yes. A dedicated Althea L1 Mainnet node speaks the same RPC interface as the shared endpoint you use today, so migration is pointing your application at your own endpoint. Billing is monthly with no lock-in on our side, and support engineers are on the channels 24/7 during cutover.
Which city should I pick for my Althea L1 Mainnet node?
Any of 18 Tier-3 datacentre cities across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific. Deploy near your users for an app, or ask us where Althea L1 Mainnet latency is lowest for a bot; we answer from measurement. Need a city we do not list? Ask.
Are there rate limits or connection caps on a dedicated Althea L1 Mainnet node?
No artificial ones: unlimited RPS and no connection cap. The machine is yours alone, so the hardware is the only ceiling: if it can serve the request, you can send it. There is no per-plan connection cap because there is no plan tier.
How do I pay for my Althea L1 Mainnet node, and can I cancel?
Visa, Mastercard, bank transfer or crypto, billed monthly; crypto payments need no KYC. Cancel at the end of any monthly term; the node is provisioned for you alone, so there is no meter to escape and no exit fee.
How does Argusnodes compare to QuickNode, GetBlock, Chainstack and other Althea L1 Mainnet RPC providers?
Argusnodes is dedicated-only: a private Althea L1 Mainnet endpoint on a bare-metal node with no rate limits, at one fixed price from $99/mo with every add-on included. Per their own pricing pages: QuickNode sells dedicated clusters through enterprise sales without published prices, Chainstack bills dedicated nodes per hour on top of a paid plan, and Zeeve applies monthly request allowances on dedicated plans below its Enterprise tier (all checked August 2026); GetBlock lists dedicated nodes from $1,000/mo, with IP allowlisting and a custom endpoint URL sold as $199/mo add-ons each (checked September 2026). The comparison table on this page links every source.
What is the Althea L1 Mainnet chain ID?
258432 (hex 0x3f180), per the canonical Ethereum chain registry. A dedicated Althea L1 Mainnet node answers eth_chainId with it, so wallets and libraries configured for Althea L1 Mainnet work against your endpoint unchanged.
What is the Althea L1 Mainnet RPC URL?
Public Althea L1 Mainnet RPC URLs from the chain registry that answered our weekly check on chain ID 258432: https://rpc.althea.zone. They are shared, rate limited and run by third parties. A dedicated node gives you a private Althea L1 Mainnet RPC URL of your own, on your domain if you want, that nobody else uses.
How do I add Althea L1 Mainnet to MetaMask with my own RPC URL?
Add a network manually with the chain ID 258432, the currency symbol ALTHEA and your private Althea L1 Mainnet RPC URL in place of the public one. The steps are the same as for a public URL; the difference is that the endpoint is yours alone, so the wallet never hits someone else's rate limit.
Does Althea L1 Mainnet have a block explorer?
Yes: mintscan.io, as listed in the canonical Ethereum chain registry.
