Lens Chain node requirements

Lens Chain node requirements, and what we build.

Chain facts from Lens Chain's official documentation (lens.xyz). Where it is silent, the row says so.

Node softwareZKsync External Node
InterfacesJSON-RPC, WebSocket
Full nodeYes, from $159/mo
Archive nodeYes, quoted per setup
ValidatorThe docs describe external nodes that follow the Lens main node and document no validator or sequencer role open to outside operators.
Chain ID232
Gas tokenGHO
Official hardware guidanceThe docs give minimal requirements for a node of a relatively modern CPU, 32 GB RAM, 700+ GB of storage for mainnet (60 GB for testnet) with the state growing, and a 100 Mbps connection (1 Gbps+ recommended). An archive node needs approximately 16 cores, 64GB RAM and 2 TB of storage for mainnet, restored from the published Postgres dump, plus temporarily 1TB of RAM during setup if the zks_getProof method is required. source ↗
Argusnodes buildMeets 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.

Public Lens Chain RPC · checked 26 Oct 2026

Public Lens Chain RPC URLs, checked every week.

Free, shared Lens Chain endpoints from the chain registry that answered eth_chainId with 232 in our weekly check (1 of 1). Good for a wallet or a test; once an app, bot or indexer depends on it, move to a dedicated Lens Chain RPC endpoint.

Before you order

Dedicated Lens Chain RPC node: the questions buyers ask.

What is a Lens Chain RPC node?

A server running Lens Chain's node software (ZKsync External 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 Lens Chain RPC node?

A Lens Chain 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 Lens Chain 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 Lens Chain RPC endpoint?

An RPC endpoint that only your applications use. It sits on a dedicated Lens Chain 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 Lens Chain node is live?

As soon as it has synced with the Lens Chain 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 $159/mo for my Lens Chain 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 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.

What hardware will my Lens Chain node run on?

A machine that meets Lens Chain'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 Lens Chain archive nodes and trace methods?

Yes. Lens Chain's documentation describes full-history operation; we run Lens Chain archive nodes, quoted per setup, with trace and historical queries unmetered. Debug and trace methods are on for full nodes too, within their state window.

Can I run a Lens Chain validator with Argusnodes?

The docs describe external nodes that follow the Lens main node and document no validator or sequencer role open to outside operators. We run every node type the chain actually offers and none it does not.

Can I move my Lens Chain endpoint from another provider?

Yes. A dedicated Lens Chain 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.

Are there rate limits or connection caps on a dedicated Lens Chain 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 Lens Chain 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 Lens Chain chain ID?

232 (hex 0xe8), per Lens Chain's official documentation. A dedicated Lens Chain node answers eth_chainId with it, so wallets and libraries configured for Lens Chain work against your endpoint unchanged.

What is the Lens Chain RPC URL?

Public Lens Chain RPC URLs from the chain registry that answered our weekly check on chain ID 232: https://rpc.lens.xyz. Lens Chain's official documentation (lens.xyz) is the reference for its own endpoints. 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 Lens Chain RPC URL of your own, on your domain if you want, that nobody else uses.

Is Lens Chain RPC free?

Yes, public Lens Chain RPC endpoints are free: the ones that passed our weekly check are listed on this page. They are shared and rate limited, which is fine for a wallet or a test. A dedicated Lens Chain node is the paid option for an app, bot or indexer, at one fixed monthly price.

What is the best Lens Chain 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. Our comparison pages (argusnodes.com/vs) set us against other providers, with sources.

Is Lens Chain the same as Lens?

Yes. Lens is the network's full name, chain ID 232, with GHO as its gas token. A dedicated Lens Chain RPC node and a dedicated Lens RPC node are the same thing.

How do I add Lens Chain to MetaMask with my own RPC URL?

Add a network manually with the chain ID 232, the currency symbol GHO and your private Lens Chain 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 Lens Chain have a block explorer?

Yes: explorer.lens.xyz, as listed in Lens Chain's official documentation.

What is the Lens Chain testnet?

Lens Chain Testnet, chain ID 37111, per Lens Chain's official documentation. We build dedicated Lens Chain Testnet nodes too, on the same terms as mainnet.
