Fastest free ZetaChain RPC, live no-key endpoint latency
HTTP round-trip latency for eth_getBlockByNumber against every free, no-key public ZetaChain EVM endpoint, audited every 60 seconds from 3 regions.
TL;DR. As of , Thirdweb posts the lowest rpc latency at 618 ms (p50, 24h) on Fastest free ZetaChain RPC, live no-key endpoint latency. Source: OpenChainBench, https://openchainbench.com/benchmarks/zetachain-rpc.

ZetaChain (chain 7000) is an EVM-compatible omnichain L1 enabling native cross-chain assets (BTC, ETH, BNB) without bridges or wrapped tokens. ZETA is the gas token. One keyless endpoint is probed continuously: Thirdweb (7000.rpc.thirdweb.com). BlockPI returned 404 and All That Node's DNS is dead.
Methodology
Per-chain member of the RPC latency cluster, extended to ZetaChain. We measure the round-trip latency of a single, identical RPC call (`eth_getBlockByNumber`) against the no-key public ZetaChain endpoint that sustains continuous probing (1 provider: Thirdweb), every 60 seconds, from us-east, eu-west and Singapore. The cross-chain view lives on the parent `rpc-capabilities` benchmark; this page is the ZetaChain-scoped answer with per-region breakdowns as a first-class dimension.
Frequently asked
What is the fastest free ZetaChain RPC right now?
Thirdweb currently leads at 618 ms (`eth_getBlockByNumber` p50 over the last 24h), measured against 1 no-key provider probed every 60 seconds from us-east, eu-west and Singapore.
Which ZetaChain RPCs work without an API key?
1 endpoint sustains continuous keyless probing: Thirdweb (7000.rpc.thirdweb.com). BlockPI returned 404 during the audit; AllThatNode's DNS is dead.
Does the fastest ZetaChain 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 ZetaChain RPC latency measured here?
One identical JSON-RPC POST (`eth_getBlockByNumber`) every 60 seconds against each provider from each of 3 regions.
