Ethereum API Endpoints

업데이트됨:
Aug 28, 2026

Quicknode gives you high-performance access to the Ethereum blockchain through HTTP and WebSocket (WSS) endpoints. These endpoints are designed for reliability, speed, and real-time data delivery, and provide the foundation for building scalable Web3 applications.

HTTP 엔드포인트

Quicknode HTTP 엔드포인트는 다양한 애플리케이션 요구 사항에 맞춰 설계된 여러 성능 단계와 최적화 기능을 통해 안정적인 JSON-RPC API 액세스를 제공합니다.

가장 적합한 대상:


  • Web3 애플리케이션 백엔드 및 API
  • 스마트 계약 배포 및 상호작용
  • 블록체인 데이터 조회 및 분석
  • 개발 및 테스트 환경

WebSocket(WSS) 엔드포인트

Quicknode WebSocket 엔드포인트는 다양한 사용 사례와 성능 요구 사항에 최적화된 상시 연결을 통해 실시간 블록체인 데이터 스트리밍을 제공합니다.


wss://your-endpoint.quiknode.pro/auth-token/

가장 적합한 대상:


  • 실시간 가격 피드가 필요한 DeFi 애플리케이션
  • 블록체인 탐색기 및 분석 대시보드
  • 거래 모니터링 및 확인 내역 추적
  • 스마트 계약 이벤트 수신

WebSocket(WSS) 제한 사항

WebSocket 응답은 특정 제한을 초과할 수 없으며, 이 제한은 변경될 수 있습니다. 응답 크기가 클 가능성이 있는 경우에는 POST 요청을 사용하는 것이 좋습니다. 응답 크기가 제한을 초과하면 관련 오류 코드는 -32616이 반환됩니다.

Flat Rate RPS

Flat Rate RPS is a billing option that provides predictable monthly costs for Ethereum endpoints. Instead of metering individual requests and charging with API Credits, you pay a fixed monthly fee based on your configured request capacity. Your bill stays the same each month regardless of actual usage.

MEV Protection (Standard Plans)

Maximum Extractable Value (MEV) refers to the profit that can be extracted by manipulating the order of transactions within a block. Validators, miners, or bots can reorder, insert, or censor transactions to capture value that would otherwise go to users. This manifests as worse trade prices, failed transactions, or unexpected losses during on-chain interactions.

MEV Protection is a transaction routing service that mitigates these risks by sending your transactions through encrypted private relay networks directly to block builders. Instead of broadcasting to the public mempool where MEV searchers monitor and exploit pending transactions, your transaction remains hidden until it is included in a block. This prevents bots from observing transaction details and executing attacks based on your intended actions.

This protection is most critical for DeFi operations (swaps, liquidity provision, lending), NFT minting during high-demand launches, liquidation protection in lending protocols, and any time-sensitive transaction where ordering affects execution quality or cost.

How it works

In standard transaction flow, your transaction is broadcast to the public mempool where it becomes visible to all network participants. MEV searchers continuously monitor the mempool for profitable opportunities, analyzing pending transactions to identify targets for extraction. They then submit competing transactions with higher gas fees to ensure their manipulative transactions are ordered favorably by validators.

MEV Protection eliminates this exposure by routing transactions through private relay infrastructure provided by trusted partners such as Blink. Your transaction is encrypted and sent directly to block builders who include it in a block without prior public visibility. The transaction bypasses the public mempool entirely, preventing MEV bots from detecting, analyzing, or reacting to your intended on-chain action. The on-chain execution and final result remain identical to standard routing, but without the risk of value extraction by third parties.

What MEV Protection defends against

MEV Protection defends against the most common forms of value extraction:

  • Front-running: Bots detect your pending transaction and submit an identical or competing transaction with higher gas to be executed first, profiting from the price impact your transaction will create.
  • Sandwich attacks: Attackers place two transactions around yours-one before to manipulate the price unfavorably, and one after to profit from the price movement your transaction causes. This results in worse execution prices and higher slippage for your trade.
  • Back-running: Bots execute transactions immediately after yours to capitalize on state changes you create, such as arbitrage opportunities from price discrepancies your trade generates.
  • Transaction reordering: Block builders or validators reorder transactions within a block to extract maximum value, potentially causing your transaction to execute under less favorable conditions than anticipated.

What it does not affect

MEV Protection is a protection service, not an optimization service. It does not modify or enhance gas pricing, trade execution prices, spreads, transaction success rates, or confirmation times. Your smart contracts execute with the same logic and produce identical on-chain results as they would through standard routing.

No additional fees or code changes are required. MEV Protection operates at the RPC routing layer and does not require modifications to your application, wallet, or SDK integration.

Limitations and considerations

Mempool visibility: Transactions routed through MEV Protection will not appear in public mempool explorers or monitoring tools until they are included in a block. This is expected behavior as the transaction bypasses the public mempool entirely.

No fallback mechanism: If the private relay network fails to include your transaction in a block, it will not automatically retry through the public mempool. Your application should implement appropriate retry logic if needed.

Network availability: MEV Protection is currently available for Ethereum, BSC, Base, Arbitrum, and Solana. Transactions on other networks will use standard public mempool routing.

Disabling MEV Protection

MEV Protection is automatically enabled for all new endpoints created on Standard Plans. Your transactions are immediately protected with no setup, configuration changes, or modifications to your wallet or SDK required. This happens transparently at the RPC routing level.

If your application requires public mempool visibility for monitoring or debugging, or you prefer standard routing, you can disable it:

  • Per endpoint: Navigate to your endpoint dashboard where you will see the MEV Protection section on the right side. Use the toggle to turn off MEV Protection. A warning dialog will appear with two options: "Keep MEV" to cancel the change, or "Disable MEV" to confirm and route transactions through the public mempool.

Availability

MEV Protection is available on all Standard Plan endpoints for supported networks (Ethereum, BSC, Base, Arbitrum, and Solana). This provides automatic protection against frontrunning and sandwich attacks with no additional cost or configuration.

Enterprise customers requiring custom routing strategies, execution guarantees, or MEV rebate programs should contact sales@quicknode.com for advanced MEV protection options with tailored configurations.

caution
If you are enrolled in Maximum Extractable Value (MEV) Protection, you acknowledge that it is provided by routing your transactions through third party networks, and is intended to minimize exposure to front-running, sandwich attacks, and slippage. MEV Protection is provided on an as-is and as-available basis.
