Frequently Asked Questions
What is Reth Ethereum?

Reth is a high-performance Ethereum execution client developed by Paradigm. It is designed to be fast, modular, and efficient while fully compatible with the Ethereum protocol. Chainstack provides reliable blockchain infrastructure using the Reth node client.

What is Reth written in?

Reth is written in Rust, a systems programming language known for its safety, speed, and concurrency – making Reth lightweight and reliable for both production and research use.

How to get the Reth Ethereum node?

You can easily deploy a Reth node using a managed provider like Chainstack.
Create a free Chainstack account to instantly launch a Reth Ethereum node without managing your own hardware or syncing from scratch.

How to run a Reth node?

To run Reth yourself, install it from the official GitHub repository, then initialize and start the node with a full sync.
For faster setup and uptime monitoring, you can use Chainstack’s managed Reth Ethereum nodes that handle infrastructure, scaling, and network reliability for you.

Reth vs Geth, what is better?

Geth is the most battle-tested and reliable choice for production Ethereum nodes. Reth is a promising next-generation client focused on performance and modular design, but it’s still in active development.

For builders who want both performance and reliability without managing infrastructure, Chainstack offers Geth for production and Reth for experimentation, so you can test, benchmark, and scale safely on the same platform.
