Abstract
RadiumBlock proposes RPC and bootnode infrastructure services for Moonbeam, Moonriver, and Moonbase Alpha for Q1 and Q2 2026. Our infrastructure has been continuously operating across all three networks, supporting live production traffic and ensuring reliable access for developers.
This proposal reflects ongoing service delivery during this period and seeks to align continued infrastructure support with the treasury process. We are open to feedback from the community and contributors on how best to structure this support moving forward.
RadiumBlock provides globally distributed, high-performance RPC infrastructure with no rate limits, optimized query handling, and a strong track record within the Moonbeam ecosystem.
TL;DR:
RadiumBlock proposes continued RPC and bootnode infrastructure services for Moonbeam, Moonriver, and Moonbase Alpha at a fixed cost of $1,450/month ($8,700 for 6 months).
