Most teams spend their first week on infrastructure setup. 🌋
Lava Gateway cuts that to minutes. Sign up, get your endpoint and API key, point your app to it.
Free tier available. 50+ chains supported. No friction.

Halloween offer on Lava Gateway: the first month of a paid plan is 50% off until Nov 30. 🎃
Your requests are routed across independent providers, so one failing node doesn't take your app down. Code HALLOWEEN50 at checkout: gateway.lavanet.xyz/?utm_sou…

The tokenomics discussion is open. 🌋
How should Provider compensation connect to actual usage? What role should the Assistance Fund play? What does the community want to see?
These are the questions on the table, and the community decides the answers.
Read and weigh in.
September Ecosystem Call recap. Here’s what moved. 🌋
EVM migration vote passed with strong community turnout. Target completion: end of January. Mid-November is the milestone to finalize economic parameters and the target EVM chain.
1/3
ALT Two men, one in a suit and the other in a black shirt, stand against a fiery background, promoting the September ecosystem update on EVM migration.
On the product and commercial side:
Latency down 46% to 125ms. $29,233 in subscription rewards distributed, third consecutive month with zero Foundation contributions. Gateway admin dashboard in progress. Agentic access point shipping mid-November.
Electric Blue Wave 1 closed with 12 teams. Wave 2 kicked off with 30+ interested projects.
2/3
Why EVM? The team puts it simply.
Dramatically stronger security. Better functionality and performance. Greater cost efficiency.

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 30%, NEAR Mainnet at 22%, NEAR Testnet at 21%.
The network gets stronger as it scales.
ALT Three blockchain networks are ranked by share: Lava Mainnet at 30%, Near Mainnet at 22%, and Near Testnet at 21%.
A developer in Southeast Asia hitting a US-based RPC node adds latency to every single request their users make.
Lava routes to the closest well-performing provider automatically. Geography stops being a configuration problem and becomes something the network handles.
Lava solves it! 🌋

Not a stress test. Not a benchmark.
Real traffic, independent providers, production infrastructure. Battle-tested.

Before agents can transact at scale, the infrastructure has to exist.
That’s the conversation @OfirEliasi moderated at the Agentic Finance Summit in Singapore. Identity, security, payment rails, and what has to be built before onboarding agents at that scale.
Full session below. 🌋
If billions of agents are going to transact, each one needs an identity, permissions, a way to pay and protection from the agents built to exploit them.
At Agentic Finance in Singapore, Lava Network, RUM Group, LibertAI and World Foundation took on the infrastructure that has to exist before agents can be onboarded at that scale.
Watch it if you build identity, security or payment infrastructure for agents.

Every chain a product supports is another endpoint to monitor, another provider relationship to manage, and another incident response to prepare for.
Teams that scale across chains without consolidating their RPC layer end up maintaining infrastructure instead of building product. 🌋

September 2026 Ecosystem Call recap. 🌋
• EVM migration vote passed.
• Record subscription revenue.
• Network latency down 46%.
Here’s the breakdown. 🧵
2/
$29,233 in subscription rewards distributed to Providers. Third consecutive month with zero Foundation contributions.
43 active Providers. 50 chains. Nearly 1 billion relays. 16 billion compute units served. NEAR led all chains by a wide margin.
Gateway polishing continues; the admin dashboard and agentic access point are both in development.
3/
Average latency dropped 46% to 125ms in September.
Routing improvements, fee adjustments, and free-tier limits tightened, all contributing to stronger network performance across the board.

The mechanism authorizes far more than it distributes. 🌋
Most burns mechanically at refill, not because Providers aren’t working, but because reserve-funded quotas don’t connect to actual usage.
A more direct model is being proposed. Usage in. Provider compensation out. Community-governed.
