Dedicated Ergo RPC node. A private Ergo RPC endpoint that only you use: no rate limits, every method on, one fixed monthly price.
Ergo is a proof-of-work smart-contract platform built around eUTXO, ErgoScript and long-term economic sustainability.

Ergo node requirements, and what we build.
Chain facts from Ergo's official documentation (docs.ergoplatform.com). Where it is silent, the row says so.
| Node software | Ergo Node |
| Interfaces | REST |
| Full node | Yes, from $99/mo |
| Archive node | Yes, quoted per setup |
| Validator | A proof-of-work chain secured by miners; docs describe archival, pruned and light node modes instead. |
| Gas token | ERG |
| Official hardware guidance | For a node the install guide states 'approximately ~20GB of storage for the blockchain and ~8GB of RAM for handling the initial sync', with 'at least 4-6GB of RAM available for the node process' (-Xmx4G) on a fast SSD; the modes page adds that archival nodes need 8GB+ RAM and hundreds of GB of storage. source ↗ |
| Argusnodes build | Meets the official guidance above with headroom on top, never at the minimum. Ask and we tell you the exact CPU, RAM and NVMe; root access on request. |
What changed on Ergo recently
- Ergo reference client 6.0.0 (23 June 2025) began automatic voting for the 6.0 (EIP-50) soft fork from height 1,561,601. source ↗
- Sigma 6.0 activated on mainnet in October 2025 from block 1,629,184 after miner voting, so nodes must run a 6.0.x client. source ↗
- Latest stable client is 6.0.4 (18 August 2026); 6.1.x builds are RocksDB variants published as pre-releases and 6.5.0 'Ergo Matrix' is DevNet-only. source ↗
- A Rust node implementation exists but is experimental; docs say to use the Scala reference client for production. source ↗

Dedicated Ergo RPC node: the questions buyers ask.
What is a Ergo RPC node?
A server running Ergo's node software (Ergo Node) that answers RPC requests: reading balances and state, and sending transactions. It can be public and free, shared by a provider's customers, or dedicated to one client.
What is a dedicated Ergo RPC node?
A Ergo node on a bare-metal server that runs for one client only, with its own private RPC endpoint. Nobody else's traffic shares the machine, so there is no rate limit and no noisy neighbour, and every method the client exposes is on. Argusnodes builds, syncs, monitors and upgrades it for you at one fixed monthly price.
Is my Ergo node managed and monitored, and what does that cost?
Yes, and so is monitoring, both at no additional cost. We set up and sync the node, watch it 24/7 with live node and server metrics in your dashboard, apply every network upgrade and client update, and fix it when something breaks. If you need help around the node, such as connecting it to your app, moving off another provider or setting up an indexer, our engineers help with that too, at the same monthly price.
What is a private Ergo RPC endpoint?
An RPC endpoint that only your applications use. It sits on a dedicated Ergo 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 Ergo node is live?
As soon as it has synced with the Ergo network, and we tell you the moment it is ready. Sync time depends on the node type (an archive node replays the full history, so it takes longest), 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 Ergo node?
Everything the node can do, with the premium add-ons other providers bill separately included free: unlimited RPS, every RPC method including heavy queries, 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 Ergo node run on?
A machine that meets Ergo's official hardware guidance (quoted in the spec sheet on this page) with headroom on top, on a dedicated bare-metal server. We never build at the minimum, because a node sized to the minimum becomes the bottleneck the day the chain grows. Ask before you order and we tell you the exact CPU, RAM and NVMe; the delivery email names the server, and root access is yours if you want it.
Does Argusnodes run Ergo archive nodes?
Yes. Ergo's documentation describes full-history operation; we run Ergo archive nodes, quoted per setup, with historical queries unmetered.
Can I run a Ergo validator with Argusnodes?
A proof-of-work chain secured by miners; docs describe archival, pruned and light node modes instead. We run every node type the chain actually offers and none it does not.
Can I move my Ergo endpoint from another provider?
Yes. A dedicated Ergo node speaks the same REST 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.
Are there rate limits or connection caps on a dedicated Ergo 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 Ergo node, and can I cancel?
In crypto, with no KYC and no setup fee. Pay monthly, or save 5% quarterly and 10% annually, and your price is locked for as long as your node runs. Cancel at the end of any term; the node is provisioned for you alone, so there is no meter to escape and no exit fee.
What is the Ergo RPC URL?
The public Ergo RPC URLs are listed in Ergo's official documentation (docs.ergoplatform.com). They are shared, rate limited and run by third parties, so they are fine for a wallet and not for an application. A dedicated node gives you a private Ergo RPC URL of your own, on your domain if you want, that nobody else uses.
Is Ergo RPC free?
Public Ergo endpoints are free and listed in Ergo's official documentation (docs.ergoplatform.com). They are shared and rate limited, which is fine for a wallet or a test. A dedicated Ergo node is the paid option for an app, bot or indexer, at one fixed monthly price.
What is the best Ergo RPC provider?
It depends on the workload. Check four things: whether the node is single-tenant or shared, whether there are rate limits or credits, whether archive, trace and debug are included, and who answers when it breaks. For a wallet, a free public endpoint is enough. For an app, bot or indexer, a dedicated node with no rate limits avoids the throttling of shared plans.
