How Hypernative started with Chainstack

When we first connected with Hypernative, they were already using a range of node providers. As we understood, they expected us to contribute crucial multi-chain support with a good UI and competitive pricing. For a company deeply engaged in extracting blockchain data, robust and reliable node API access was a requirement they laid emphasis on.

We understood that Hypernative’s needs were comprehensive. Fetching raw block data, transaction data, and reliably executing other specific API calls regularly termed the team’s needs. Hypernative had challenges related to the response time and the need for durability in its infrastructure which we acknowledged and improved over time. Our multi-chain support, competitive pricing, reliable nodes, and receptive customer service appealed greatly to Hypernative’s scalable requirements.

The crux of our relationship has not merely been about aligning our offerings with Hypernative’s needs, but also about growth and scale that benefits both parties. Hypernative has tapped into our diverse services using Chainstack Global Elastic Nodes for real-time data processing, which offer a superior edge with improved load balancing and redundancy and dedicated for historical tasks.
