Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Chainstack a strong dRPC alternative?

Chainstack delivers the same reliable, multi-chain RPC access you’d expect from dRPC, but with transparent flat-rate pricing and enterprise-grade infrastructure. You get SOC2-certified global load balancing, 99.99%+ uptime backed by SLA, and no hidden overages as your traffic scales.

How is Chainstack’s pricing different from dRPC’s?

dRPC uses a proprietary credit-based billing system that makes it hard to predict costs and budget at scale. Chainstack instead offers transparent usage tiers and Unlimited Node options with no method weighting or hidden multipliers—letting you grow without surprise fees.

Do I need to refactor my app to switch from dRPC?

No. Chainstack endpoints follow the same EVM-compatible standards, so you can simply replace your dRPC RPC URL with a Chainstack endpoint and continue building without code changes.

How do I migrate my dApp from dRPC to Chainstack?

Switching is quick and straightforward:

  1. Sign up and create a project in Chainstack.

  2. Deploy the target node (Global, Dedicated, or Unlimited).

  3. Replace your dRPC RPC URL with your new Chainstack endpoint.

Most teams complete migration in under 10 minutes.
