THE GATEWAY TO THE POLKADOT ECOSYSTEMPinknode empowers developers by providing node-as-a-service solutions, removing an entire layer of inefficiencies and complexities, and accelerating your product life cycle.Token Use CasesAccessPNODE will be used to access the services via ownership or payment and to switch between account tiers for developersPaymentPNODE will be used to pay for operations and re-invested into running validators and collator nodesStakingPNODE will be used for staking (API access, decentralisation of nodes, optimisation of relays, marketing and community campaigns)GovernancePNODE will be used for governance, allowing holders to vote on the direction of the project (onboarding of parachains, number of nodes to deploy, role of nodes etc.)ServicesAnalyticsOur purposefully designed dashboard will help you understand and optimize the inner workings of your infrastructure.Proprietary NodesIf you require nodes of your own, we provide end-to-end node operation services. You’ll never have to worry about your infrastructure needs.HTTPS API EndpointsWhether you’re testing on Rococo or ready to launch and scale on Kusama and Polkadot, our battle tested API suite will serve you well from launch to scale.Maintenance FreeWe operate, manage and update nodes for developers and teams, so they can focus on building what matters most.PlatformFor chainsMore Developers, More Applications, More UsersStreamlined onboarding process connecting projects to the Polkadot or Kusama network with a custom Pinknode-powered line of code.Our nodes enhance the security of the network by fulfilling the roles of validator, collator and fishermen.Immediate node deployment helps to jumpstart new networksProjects interact with our purposefully designed dashboard to operate and optimize their infrastructure needs.High quality, secure and reliable architecture maintained through strict internal testing protocols, ensuring maximum uptime and 100% data integrityFor DevelopersIntegrate Seamlessly into the Polkadot NetworkSkip the node setup process by communicating directly via https and websockets.Customize your own rate limits by staking PNODE tokens.Gain unique insights into your application at a glance.ArthitectureSecure and reliable - Our priority is to provide enterprise-grade infrastructure for your peace of mind. We do this by having a strict testing and maintenance protocol.High throughput - Innovative caching solution ensuring low-latency, high-volume architecture.Polkadot focused - With a broad coverage of upcoming parachains, we run nodes dedicated to the protocol, providing depth and a great user experience.Global AutoScale - We scale as you grow with pre-programmed solutions to serve users globally.
