What your Fraxtal dedicated node is built from.
Every row below is taken from Fraxtal's official documentation (docs.frax.com), last reviewed against it on 22 Aug 2026, not from what is convenient to sell. Where the documentation is silent, the row says so.

What changed on Fraxtal recently (reviewed 22 Aug 2026)
- Fraxtal activated the OP Stack Granite hard fork on 7 February 2025, Holocene on 7 April 2025 and Isthmus on 20 August 2025 (mainnet timestamps in rollup.json), each requiring new fraxtal-op-geth/op-node images. source ↗
- The mainnet-20251117 release was a required upgrade ahead of Ethereum's Fusaka hard fork on 3 December 2025; un-upgraded nodes would chain-split. source ↗
- On 13 April 2026 the official node config switched the execution client from fraxtal-op-geth to fraxtal-op-reth because upstream op-geth reached end of support on 31 May 2026; the 25 April 2026 release (op-reth v2.1.0-frax-1.3.4, op-node v1.16.12-frax-1.2.1) added bootnodes to speed the initial reth sync, and a fresh sync is implied. source ↗
- The Fraxtal testnet moved from Holesky to Hoodi (chain ID 2523) in November 2025; the old testnet configuration was retired. source ↗
Choosing the Fraxtal client for the workload.
Fraxtal's documentation covers 2 node clients. You name the client, or describe the workload and we recommend one; either way it is built, synced and tuned for you.
fraxtal-op-node is Frax's fork of the OP Stack op-node with the custom Fraxtal DA client built in; it derives the chain from L1 plus the Fraxtal DA endpoint and drives the execution client over the Engine API.
fraxtal-op-reth is Frax's fork of op-reth and the only supported execution client since April 2026 (archive by default, pass --full for a full node); it replaced fraxtal-op-geth ahead of upstream op-geth's 31 May 2026 end of support.
What to order for your Fraxtal workload.
Each card is a configuration you can pick above, with the reason it fits.
Trading bots and MEV
Order: Full node · WebSocket on · bot/MEV tuning · city nearest Fraxtal's block producers
Burst as hard as the strategy needs. No rate limits and no noisy neighbours on the hot path; we pick the city from latency measurement, not a map.
BUILT FOR BOTS →Indexing and analytics
Order: Archive node from $799/mo · indexing tuning
Backfills, trace and historical queries on Fraxtal run unmetered on your own machine.
BUILT FOR INDEXERS →dApps and wallets
Order: Full node · your domain · IP allowlist · city near your users
Serve your users from your own Fraxtal endpoint with unlimited connections and a 99.99% SLA in writing.
WHY DEDICATED →Exchanges and payments
Order: Full node · IP allowlist · transaction-heavy tuning · per-node monitoring
Deposit and withdrawal scanning on Fraxtal from an endpoint only your systems can reach.

The Fraxtal RPC node endpoint provider that hands you the keys.
Your Fraxtal 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, WebSocket as documented by Fraxtal. 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.

Fraxtal dedicated node: the questions buyers ask.
How long until my Fraxtal node is live?
A firm quote lands within the hour, around the clock. Go-live depends on Fraxtal's sync characteristics for your configuration and the client you pick (fraxtal-op-node, fraxtal-op-reth); 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 $199/mo for my Fraxtal node?
Everything the node can do: no rate limits, every RPC method including debug and trace, unlimited WebSocket 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.
Which Fraxtal client should I choose?
fraxtal-op-node: fraxtal-op-node is Frax's fork of the OP Stack op-node with the custom Fraxtal DA client built in; it derives the chain from L1 plus the Fraxtal DA endpoint and drives the execution client over the Engine API. fraxtal-op-reth: fraxtal-op-reth is Frax's fork of op-reth and the only supported execution client since April 2026 (archive by default, pass --full for a full node); it replaced fraxtal-op-geth ahead of upstream op-geth's 31 May 2026 end of support.
Does Argusnodes run Fraxtal archive nodes and trace methods?
Yes. Fraxtal's documentation describes full-history operation; we run Fraxtal 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 Fraxtal validator with Argusnodes?
An OP-stack rollup operated by Frax Finance; block production is not documented as permissionless. We run every node type the chain actually offers and none it does not.
Can I migrate my Fraxtal endpoint from QuickNode, Chainstack or another provider?
Yes. A dedicated Fraxtal node speaks the same JSON-RPC and WebSocket 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 Fraxtal 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 Fraxtal 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 Fraxtal 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 Fraxtal 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 Fraxtal RPC providers?
Argusnodes is dedicated-only: a bare-metal Fraxtal node with no rate limits at one flat price from $199/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.
