Fastest free Manta Pacific RPC, live no-key EVM endpoint latency
HTTP round-trip latency for the `eth_getBlockByNumber("latest", false)` method against every free, no-key public Manta Pacific EVM endpoint, audited every 60 seconds from 3 regions.
TL;DR. As of , Manta Network leads rpc latency at 181 ms (p50, 24h) on Fastest free Manta Pacific RPC, live no-key EVM endpoint latency. Source: OpenChainBench, https://openchainbench.com/benchmarks/manta-rpc.

Manta Pacific is an OP Stack EVM L2 (chain 169) built on Celestia for data availability, optimised for zero-knowledge applications and DeFi, ETH gas token, ~2 s block cadence, settlement on Ethereum. The 2026-08-04 audit confirms 4 clean keyless providers: the Manta Pacific official endpoint (pacific-rpc.manta.network/http), dRPC (manta-pacific.drpc.org), Thirdweb (169.rpc.thirdweb.com), and 1RPC (1rpc.io/manta). Excluded: Ankr (no manta pacific route), Alchemy (key required), QuickNode (key required).
Methodology
Per-chain member of the RPC latency cluster, extended to Manta Pacific. We measure the round-trip latency of a single, identical JSON-RPC call (`eth_getBlockByNumber("latest", false)`) against every no-key public Manta Pacific endpoint that sustains continuous probing, 4 providers measured, every 60 seconds, from us-east, eu-west and Singapore. The harness classifies every response (ok / http_err / jsonrpc_err / stale / timeout) with a Manta Pacific-scaled staleness gap (20 blocks at Manta Pacific's ~2 s block time). The cross-chain view lives on the parent `rpc-capabilities` benchmark; this page is the Manta Pacific-scoped answer with per-region breakdowns as a first-class dimension.
Frequently asked
What is the fastest free Manta Pacific RPC right now?
Manta Network currently leads at 181 ms (`eth_getBlockByNumber("latest", false)` p50 over the last 24h), measured against 4 no-key providers probed every 60 seconds from us-east, eu-west and Singapore. The leaderboard re-sorts continuously against fresh Prometheus samples. Use the region tabs to see the leader from the origin closest to your deployment.
Which Manta Pacific RPCs work without an API key?
4 endpoints sustain continuous keyless probing: Manta Network (https://pacific-rpc.manta.network/http), dRPC (https://manta-pacific.drpc.org), Thirdweb (https://169.rpc.thirdweb.com), and 1RPC (https://1rpc.io/manta). Every listed endpoint was live-verified with a `eth_getBlockByNumber` POST returning a parsable response before inclusion.
Does the fastest Manta Pacific RPC change by region?
Often. Public infra concentrates in specific regions; a gateway that wins from Amsterdam can lose from Singapore by multiples. The region tabs at the top of the page re-scope every number to a single origin; pick the one closest to where your requests originate.
How is Manta Pacific RPC latency measured here, technically?
One identical `eth_getBlockByNumber("latest", false)` POST every 60 seconds against each provider from each of 3 regions, using the same plain HTTP client the rest of the RPC cluster uses. Wall-clock round-trip is recorded at millisecond precision; p50/p90/p99 are computed via Prometheus `quantile_over_time` over 24 hours. Responses are classified (`ok` / `http_err` / `jsonrpc_err` / `stale` / `timeout`) so an endpoint stuck on an old head or returning errors behind HTTP 200 is never ranked as fastest.
