Ankr Launches Public RPC for XRP Ledger to Streamline Developer Access
TL;DR:
- Ankr enabled public Remote Procedure Call (RPC) infrastructure for both the mainnet and testnet of the XRP Ledger.
- The service offers native support for 43 Application Programming Interface (API) methods distributed across six functional categories.
- The full nodes operated by the firm retain approximately two weeks of recent on-chain transaction history.
This Monday, Ankr reported that it will deploy its new public RPC service for XRP Ledger. Thanks to this implementation, both developers and institutions will be able to connect to the mainnet and testnet. This service eliminates the need to run nodes to read and write data on the blockchain.
Network Architecture and Methods Supported by the Infrastructure
XRP Ledger operates as a Layer 1 network optimized for global value transfer and asset settlement. Unlike other blockchain platforms, the protocol directly integrates its primitives into the base layer without requiring additional smart contract layers.
Official data indicates that the protocol natively includes decentralized exchanges, payment channels, token issuance, and multi-signature schemes. The provider reported that the new RPC infrastructure distributes traffic through globally distributed full nodes under enterprise standards.
