Public RPC Endpoints

Orbion provides stable, public JSON-RPC endpoints for developers, validators, and indexers. These endpoints are load-balanced, rate-limited, and designed to mimic mainnet conditions on testnet β€” offering high availability and reliable connectivity.

No authentication required. Ready out of the box.


πŸ”— Testnet RPC URLs

Name
URL

Orbion RPC #1

https://rpctestnet-1.orbionchain.com

Orbion RPC #2

https://rpctestnet-2.orbionchain.com

  • Chain ID: 9119

  • Network Name: orbion-testnet

  • EVM Compatible: βœ…

  • Supports WebSockets: Coming Soon

  • Rate Limits:

    • 20 req/sec (burstable)

    • Fair-use IP rotation enforced


πŸ“¦ Supported Methods

Orbion RPC endpoints support the full Ethereum JSON-RPC spec including:

  • eth_call, eth_sendRawTransaction, eth_getLogs

  • net_version, web3_clientVersion, eth_chainId

  • eth_estimateGas, eth_gasPrice, eth_blockNumber

Compatible with MetaMask, Hardhat, Foundry, Remix, and any EVM-based dev tooling.


πŸ” Tips for Developers

  • Use both endpoints as fallback or round-robin in production testing.

  • Rate limits are shared per IP β€” use local node for large batch requests.

  • If deploying contracts, ensure you’re sending signed raw transactions (eth_sendRawTransaction) for best results.


πŸ§ͺ Sample Hardhat Config

module.exports = {
  defaultNetwork: "orbion",
  networks: {
    orbion: {
      url: "https://rpctestnet-1.orbionchain.com",
      chainId: 9119,
      accounts: [process.env.PRIVATE_KEY]
    }
  }
}
