Blockchain Service Endpoint

To communicate with the blockchain networks, an endpoint is needed to send/receive messages and transactions utilizing the interfacing in MASQ Software, conforming to standard JSON-RPC format on EVM-compatible chains (Ethereum L2 and Polygon PoS).

This endpoint URL is saved under the --blockchain-service-url in the software, and allows you to use your own endpoints instead of public RPC endpoints.

For live MASQ Browser / Base mainnet use, configure an HTTPS JSON-RPC endpoint for Base.

Here are providers that offer free and premium accounts that can be used with MASQ Node:

Advanced operators coordinating Polygon mainnet peers can use Polygon-focused RPC guides such as Polygon network documentation.
