A public good in the form of an open RPC. Funded by NFT communities. This RPC:
- does not censor
- can be used permissionlessly by anyone
- reduces a large centralization vector in Ethereum where 2-3 players control all RPC requests
- Can be faster at getting TXs included in case other RPCs are throttled or slow.
- Doesnt have a conflict of interest between profit maxing and benefiting the community
This repo contains scripts used to setup the server, based on eth2-quickstart.
Setup a cloud or home server first. With sufficient specs to run a EL and CL client.
git clone https://github.com/chimera-defi/eth2-quickstart.git
// Run through the setup to configure and pre-harden the server.
// Will install eth1, prysm CL, utils
// We use erigon for this use-case as it supports standalone RPC processes
./erigon.sh
./install_nginx_ssl.sh
// Setup SSL certs and route53 domains for the rpc
