Learn more about Metis

What is Metis?

Metis is an optimistic rollup that adds a decentralized sequencer and Polis framework so DAOs can run their own micro-rollups called “DACs.”

How to get Metis RPC endpoint?

Open a free Chainstack account, then access your console. Hit Add node, pick the Metis network, and spin up your node with one click. Once it’s up, click Access & credentials and take your personal RPC endpoint into your dApp.

How to run a Metis node?

Chainstack lets you launch a Metis Global Node in the time it takes to brew tea. A Dedicated Node fits when you need full DAC role support. Running it yourself involves setting up sequencer-validator pairs and constant DB pruning.

What is Metis RPC API?

Metis offers Ethereum-compatible JSON-RPC with extra l2_getVerifiedCommitments for its DAC architecture. Transactions sent via eth_sendRawTransaction are later proved on Ethereum mainnet. WebSocket feeds publish challenge-window events.

How much does it cost to run a Metis RPC?

Expect US $100-200 / month for a Metis node with DAC support, plus overhead for periodic pruning. Downtime penalties can cost even more. Most developers save by opting for Chainstack’s Metis RPC instead of self-hosting.

Is Metis RPC free?

Metis publishes no-cost RPC URLs, yet DAC load sometimes overwhelms them. Chainstack’s 3 million-request free tier brings predictable Metis performance.

How to setup a Metis RPC?

Pull the Metis HTTPS endpoint from the Chainstack Console. Add it as a custom RPC in your wallet or update RPC_URL in your dApp’s env file.

Notes for Metis API

When communicating with a Metis node, the client implements a JSON-RPC specification compatible with Ethereum. The recommended libraries are ethers.js for JavaScript or web3.py for Python.

OP Stack-based L2 with a decentralized sequencer — one of the first rollups to move away from a single centralized sequencer.

You can also access Metis directly through the Chainstack MCP server — query live on-chain data, deploy nodes, request testnet funds from the faucet, and search Chainstack docs from Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, ChatGPT, Codex, Pi, Gemini, or any MCP-compatible or SKILL-compatible AI agent.
