Fastest free Arbitrum RPC

As of June 11, 2026, dRPC leads Arbitrum RPC latency at 22 ms (p50, 24h window), measured across 8 providers. Regional leaders differ: Tenderly in US-East; PublicNode in EU-West; dRPC in Singapore.

Arbitrum carries the second-largest cohort in this bench, 8 no-key providers, and is one of the few chains where Lava and MeowRPC compete alongside PublicNode and the Arbitrum Foundation's own endpoint. The current leader is dRPC at 22 ms (`eth_blockNumber` p50, 24h). Latency is sampled every 15 seconds from three regions; archive-depth checks flag endpoints that serve pruned state as non-archive.
