Let’s dive into the details of Select Access Chains.
The Evolution of Chain Accessibility at QuickNode
QuickNode’s renowned service quality and industry-leading reliability have always been supported by a substantial investment in our rock-solid infrastructure. Our standard access network is built on robust foundations, offering easy endpoint creation for the chains most crucial to our users. However, maintaining this level of access involves significant partnerships and engineering efforts—especially for chains that may not yet have a well-established foundation or core team.
In the rapidly evolving world of Web3, where decentralization and innovation move at lightning speed, new chains can emerge and gain traction in a matter of minutes. This dynamic landscape posed a challenge: how could we maintain QuickNode’s high standards of reliability and performance while accommodating the diverse and ever-growing ecosystem of blockchain networks?
That led our infrastructure experts to develop Select Access Chains, a solution that allows us to scale our infrastructure more efficiently while maintaining the excellence that our users expect.
Select Access: Unlocking a Universe of New Chains
Select Access Chains represents a significant evolution in how QuickNode delivers blockchain infrastructure. Simply put, while our standard access network operates like a printing press that mass-produces books in anticipation of demand, Select Access is akin to a print-on-demand service that activates only when an order is placed.
This approach gives us the agility and flexibility to launch support for a broader range of chains faster than ever before. Whether you’re a developer eager to experiment with the latest blockchain technologies or an enterprise seeking to deploy on emerging networks, Select Access Chains provides the key to unlocking new opportunities.

How We Determine Select Access Chains
The flexibility of Select Access infrastructure allows our team to provide support to a new subset of chains once out of reach. These emerging chains may have untested demand or limited partnership capabilities which would have previously made them unviable for initial infrastructure investments. Now, Select Access enables us to test long-term viability and developer demand for a chain without having to wait for a more robust ecosystem.
What does this mean for you? Early access to develop on emerging and disruptive chains.
Why Select Access Matters for Developers and Enterprises
For developers, Select Access Chains offers the ability to quickly and easily connect to a wider array of blockchain networks without compromising on the reliability and speed that QuickNode is known for. This expanded access means more opportunities to innovate, test, and deploy on cutting-edge chains as they become available.
For enterprises, the introduction of Select Access Chains presents a strategic advantage. By leveraging QuickNode’s scalable infrastructure, enterprises can now explore new blockchain networks with confidence, knowing that they’re supported by the same high-performance infrastructure that powers some of the most prominent chains in the industry.
How It Works
With Select Access, users pay a monthly access fee to unlock and create endpoints on the QuickNode network for the selected chains. This model allows us to provide on-demand infrastructure that scales with the needs of the Web3 community, ensuring that you have access to the chains you need when you need them.
Linea: The First of Many Select Access Chains
We’re thrilled to announce that Linea is the first chain available through Select Access. As a newly launched chain, Linea offers exciting potential for developers and enterprises looking to explore new blockchain solutions. You can create your Linea endpoint on QuickNode today and start building immediately.
And this is just the beginning. We’ll roll out more Select Access Chains in the coming months, so stay tuned for updates.
