FAQ

What is an archive node?

An archive node stores the complete blockchain history from the genesis block, including all past states, storage values, and balances.

Full node vs archive node: what’s the difference?

A full node keeps only the latest states required for validation, while an archive node retains every historical state ever recorded. This allows advanced node history retrieval and detailed archive node blockchain access.

How can I access a free archival node via NOWNodes?

To access free archive nodes, simply create an account, select up to five networks under the Start Plan, and use your generated API key.
This gives you instant archival access to top chains such as Ethereum, Bitcoin, Polygon, Arbitrum, and more — with no infrastructure setup required.

What if the network I need doesn’t have archive support?

If a network you need doesn’t yet offer archive access, you can request to add it to the shared plan — the team may already be working on enabling archival support for that chain.
