Réseau Pocket

Pocket Network is a decentralized infrastructure protocol designed to provide reliable, censorship-resistant access to blockchain and public data APIs. It operates a global network of over 10,000 permissionless nodes that collectively serve nearly one trillion relays to date, supporting a wide range of Web3 and AI applications. The network’s architecture is built to be self-healing and high performance, addressing bottlenecks and single points of failure common in centralized API providers.

Developers and enterprises use Pocket Network to access blockchain data and other public APIs through customizable gateways, enabling seamless integration with emerging blockchains and specialized AI models. The protocol’s native token, POKT, coordinates network participation and incentivizes node operators to maintain uptime and reliability. The network’s recent Shannon upgrade established it as the first fully permissionless API network, further decentralizing data access and governance.

Pocket Network’s open-source foundation and extensive documentation make it accessible for node operators, developers, and businesses seeking scalable infrastructure without reliance on centralized providers. Users can start by running a node to contribute to the network or by integrating with Pocket’s gateways to access diverse data streams. The platform is positioned to support the growing demands of AI, autonomous agents, and novel Web3 protocols by ensuring data flows freely and reliably across applications worldwide.
