RPC Endpoints

danger

The RPC endpoint is a point of trust. Beside traffic rate limiting, it can also perform censorship or even a man-in-the-middle attack. If you have security considerations, we strongly recommend that you set up your own ParaTime client node.

Cipher endpoints share the gRPC protocol with the Oasis Core. You can connect to one of the public endpoints below (in alphabetic order):

Only rudimentary block explorer features exist for Cipher. Consider debugging Cipher transactions with the oasis paratime show command using the Oasis CLI.
