The scariest thing in your stack is a single RPC endpoint. 🎃
Lava Gateway routes every request across independent Providers, so when one goes down, traffic moves to the next.
First paid month 50% off with HALLOWEEN50, until Nov 30: gateway.lavanet.xyz/?utm_sou…
Lava is changing where it runs. The way Providers get paid should be part of that conversation.
Today: a reserve-funded monthly quota. Proposed: Gateway revenue buys LAVA, and 70% goes to the Providers who served the traffic.
The community decides.
Read the full proposal 🌋
Lava Network has relayed 231B+ requests since inception.
Last 30 days:
• 15M+ on @solana
• 12M+ on @cosmoshub
• 4M+ on @ethereum
• 1M+ on @Starknet
Production traffic. Independent Providers. 🌋
Most teams treat testnet RPC as something they cobble together for free.
But a slow or unreliable testnet endpoint slows down every developer on the team every deploy, every test, every debug cycle.
Lava covers Mainnet and Testnet with the same provider network. 🌋

Security advisory for LAVA holders, stakers, and Providers.
Keplr is investigating an incident at Web3Auth, a third-party login provider. It affects some Keplr wallets created with Google or Apple login. Keplr reports it did not involve a compromise of its own code.
If your wallet was created that way:
• Follow Keplr’s official guidance
• Do not deposit more funds into it
• Ignore unsolicited recovery offers
Details 👇
We have received reports of unauthorized transactions on some Keplr accounts created with Google or Apple login. We flagged this to the @Web3Auth team and have been working with them on the investigation since.
Based on our initial assessment: if you created your Keplr wallet with a recovery phrase or a hardware wallet, you are NOT affected.
If you created your Keplr account with Google or Apple login, your account may be affected. While we investigate:
– Do not send new funds to that account.
– Do not re-import or recreate it anywhere.
– Google/Apple login is paused for now.
– Trust updates only from this account. Ignore DMs or links offering “recovery”.
We will share verified details and next steps here as soon as we have them.

That's a wrap on Devcon in Mumbai. 🌋
Thanks to everyone who stopped by to talk about RPC, failover, and multi-chain access. If we didn't get to meet on-site, our DMs are open.
Last day at @EFDevcon in Mumbai.
The Lava team is still on site today. If you’re building on Ethereum or any chain we support, come talk RPC, Smart Router, or the EVM migration.
DMs are open. 🌋
Our CTO @OfirEliasi took the stage at @summit_defi in Mumbai to lay out the security calculus behind migrating a live app-chain.
Running consensus and custom validator sets creates operational surface area. Smart contract protocols trade that overhead for bounded execution and time-locked upgrades.
The debate continues on our governance forum.
Running your own chain means consensus, a validator set, a security budget, coordinated node releases, and incidents at any hour.
Moving to EVM contracts removes that whole layer. What remains is bounded and time-locked.
That was my talk at @summit_defi in Mumbai: a security playbook for migrating a live appchain. 🌋

Lava Network is in Hong Kong for FinTech Week.
You'll find our team at the Hong Kong Digital Asset Summit by Cosmoverse on 5 and 6 November, where digital asset infrastructure meets institutional markets.
DMs are open if you want to meet.
Some providers offer decentralization as a premium option. 🌋
On Lava, every request, free or paid, routes across an independent network of providers. Decentralization isn't an upsell. It's the baseline architecture.
70% to Providers. 30% to a bounded on-chain Assistance Fund.
That’s the proposed split for Gateway revenue under the new tokenomics model. It’s a starting recommendation, not a settled number, and the community can revise it through a vote.
Full proposal 🌋
Lava Network is at @EFDevcon in Mumbai this week.
If you're building on Ethereum or any other chain we support, come talk to the team about RPC that keeps running when a provider goes down.
DMs are open if you want to meet on site.
More usage means more demand for RPC.
More demand means more traffic routed through Lava, and more Providers competing to serve it. The best performer wins each request.
This week: Lava Mainnet at 31%, NEAR Mainnet at 22%, NEAR Testnet at 21%.
The network gets stronger as it scales. 🌋

Most infrastructure decisions are made before a team fully understands their usage patterns. 🌋
Lava's free tier lets developers build and test against the real provider network, not a sandbox simulation, before committing to a paid plan.
What they test on is what they scale on.
230B+ relays and counting.
Last 30 days alone:
• 229M+ on Near Protocol
• 42M+ on Arbitrum
• 36M+ on Polygon
• 18M+ on Base
Independent Providers. Real production traffic. The network gets stronger as demand grows. 🌋

230B+ relays. Still climbing 🌋
Not a stress test. Not a benchmark.
Real traffic, independent providers, production infrastructure. Battle-tested.
ALT A dramatic volcanic landscape dominates the scene, showcasing two mountains with flowing lava and a bright blue sky above.
No RPC horror stories this Halloween. 🎃
When a provider goes down, Lava Gateway sends your requests to another one, and your app keeps running.
