Fastest free XDC Network RPC, live no-key endpoint latency
HTTP round-trip latency for eth_getBlockByNumber against every free, no-key public XDC Network RPC endpoint, audited every 60 seconds from 3 regions.
TL;DR. As of , Ankr leads rpc latency at 6 ms (p50, 24h) on Fastest free XDC Network RPC, live no-key endpoint latency. Source: OpenChainBench, https://openchainbench.com/benchmarks/xdc-rpc.

XDC Network (chain 50) is an EVM-compatible hybrid blockchain targeting enterprise and trade-finance use cases, XDC gas token, delegated proof of stake consensus, designed for ISO 20022-compliant financial applications. Two keyless endpoints are probed continuously: Ankr and XDC eRPC (erpc.xinfin.network). XDC Foundation official, XDCrpc, and XDC.org stopped responding to probes and have been removed.
Methodology
Per-chain member of the RPC latency cluster, extended to XDC Network. We measure the round-trip latency of a single, identical RPC call (`eth_getBlockByNumber`) against every no-key public XDC Network endpoint that sustains continuous probing, 2 providers, every 60 seconds, from us-east, eu-west and Singapore. The harness classifies every response (ok / http_err / jsonrpc_err / stale / timeout) so the leaderboard rewards sustained availability rather than fast error messages. The cross-chain view lives on the parent `rpc-capabilities` benchmark; this page is the XDC Network-scoped answer with per-region breakdowns as a first-class dimension.
Frequently asked
What is the fastest free XDC Network RPC right now?
Ankr currently leads at 6 ms (`eth_getBlockByNumber` p50 over the last 24h), measured against 2 no-key providers probed every 60 seconds from us-east, eu-west and Singapore. The leaderboard re-sorts continuously against fresh Prometheus samples.
Which XDC Network RPCs work without an API key?
2 endpoints sustain continuous keyless probing: Ankr and XDC eRPC (erpc.xinfin.network). XDC Foundation official, XDCrpc and XDC.org stopped responding to probes and have been removed.
Does the fastest XDC Network RPC change by region?
Often. 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 XDC Network RPC latency measured here?
One identical JSON-RPC POST (`eth_getBlockByNumber`) every 60 seconds against each provider from each of 3 regions. Responses are classified so an endpoint stuck on an old head or returning errors is never ranked as fastest.
