Peaq RPC
Peaq - Overzicht
Peaq is a Layer 1 blockchain built on Substrate that focuses on decentralized physical infrastructure networks (DePIN) and Machine Real World Assets (RWAs). The platform uses parallelized block production and asynchronous backing to process transactions efficiently while operating as a Polkadot parachain.
Peaq provides dual execution environments—developers can deploy EVM-based smart contracts (Solidity) or Substrate pallets (Rust) depending on their needs. This architecture enables cross-chain communication through Polkadot's Cross-Consensus Messaging (XCM) protocol while maintaining compatibility with Ethereum development tooling like Hardhat, Foundry, and Web3 libraries.
Interacting with Peaq's APIs
Peaq supports both Ethereum JSON-RPC methods for EVM compatibility and Polkadot JSON-RPC API for Substrate-native interactions. Developers can use standard Ethereum development tools or Polkadot ecosystem libraries to build and deploy applications on the network.
The Quicknode Peaq documentation is continuously evolving as the network undergoes upgrades and changes, so we highly recommend cross-referencing with the official Peaq documentation for the latest updates and features.
Make Peaq API Calls
The quickest way to start building on Peaq is to create a Quicknode endpoint and send your first JSON-RPC request.
Quicknode provides managed Peaq endpoints, giving you immediate access to Peaq Mainnet without the overhead of running infrastructure. These endpoints offer:
- High reliability – globally distributed infrastructure designed to minimize downtime
- Enhanced performance – optimized latency and request handling for production-grade apps
- Integrated ecosystem – additional functionality through specialized APIs (add-ons) on the Quicknode Marketplace and products like Streams
Visit the QuickStart page to create your endpoint and send your first request.
