What changed on Dash recently (reviewed 22 Aug 2026)
- Dash Core 23.0.0 (Nov 10, 2025) is mandatory for masternodes and evonodes (protocol 70238, min peer 70221), migrates EvoDB to a new format (downgrade needs full reindex), rebuilds the block-filter index, and removes legacy RPCs such as instantsendtoaddress and masternode current/winner. source ↗

The Dash RPC node endpoint provider that hands you the keys.
Your Dash endpoint lives on your own domain, locked to the IPs you allowlist, served from the city you choose across 18 Tier-3 datacentre locations. The node exposes JSON-RPC, REST, ZMQ as documented by Dash. 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.
Chain facts on this page are sourced from Dash's official documentation, and you can check them yourself:
Dash dedicated node: the questions buyers ask.
How long until my Dash node is live?
A firm quote lands within the hour, around the clock. Go-live depends on Dash's sync characteristics for your configuration; your quote includes a go-live estimate for exactly that setup rather than a number that is sometimes wrong.
What is included in the from $99/mo for my Dash node?
Everything the node can do: no rate limits, 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.
Does Argusnodes run Dash archive nodes and trace methods?
Yes. Dash's documentation describes full-history operation; we run Dash archive nodes from $799/mo with trace and historical queries unmetered. Debug and trace methods are on for full nodes too, within their state window.
Can I run a Dash validator with Argusnodes?
A proof-of-work chain secured by miners; masternodes provide second-tier services but do not produce blocks. We run every node type the chain actually offers and none it does not.
Can I migrate my Dash endpoint from QuickNode, Chainstack or another provider?
Yes. A dedicated Dash node speaks the same JSON-RPC and REST and ZMQ interfaces 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 Dash 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 Dash 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 Dash node?
No artificial ones. 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 Dash node, and can I cancel?
Visa, Mastercard, bank transfer or crypto, billed monthly. 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, Chainstack and other Dash RPC providers?
Argusnodes is dedicated-only: a bare-metal Dash node with no rate limits at one flat price from $99/mo. As of August 2026, 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. The comparison table on this page links every source.
