Injective RPC endpoints: free public URLs by latency
HTTP round-trip latency for the Tendermint `status` method against every free, no-key public Injective Cosmos SDK endpoint, audited every 60 seconds from 3 regions.
TL;DR. As of , PublicNode has the lowest median latency of the 2 free public Injective RPC endpoints measured above the 50 % success floor (3 listed), 84 ms (p50, 24h, 3 regions). Source: OpenChainBench, https://openchainbench.com/benchmarks/injective-rpc. 3 public endpoints, no key: injective-rpc.publicnode.com, rpc.lavenderfive.com, injective-rpc.polkachu.com. Full URLs with their 24h median are listed below.

Injective is a Cosmos SDK L1 tuned for orderbook DEXs and DeFi, with native CosmWasm and EVM execution modules. Same Tendermint `status` probe used on the rest of the Cosmos cluster; every provider live-verified with 4 consecutive keyless probes at launch. Injective's `~0.65 s` block time is much faster than the Cosmos Hub / Osmosis norm, so the block-based staleness gap is deliberately wider (40 blocks = ~26 s) to avoid false-positive `stale` classifications during a fast leader turnover.
Methodology
Injective: 3 free public RPC endpoints answering `status` every 60 seconds from us-east, eu-west and Singapore, ranked by 24h median. PublicNode leads at 84 ms. The chain's own endpoint (tm.injective.network) answers 502 and left the cohort on 2026-10-19. We measure the round-trip latency of a single, identical JSON-RPC call (Tendermint `status`) against every no-key public Injective endpoint that sustains continuous probing, 3 providers live today, every 60 seconds, from us-east, eu-west and Singapore. The harness classifies every response (ok / http_err / jsonrpc_err / stale / timeout) with a Injective-scaled staleness gap (40 blocks at Injective's ~0.65 s block time). The cross-chain view lives on the parent `rpc-capabilities` benchmark; this page is the Injective-scoped answer with per-region breakdowns as a first-class dimension.
