FAQ

What is a Filecoin node provider?

A Filecoin node provider delivers managed blockchain infrastructure, giving developers instant access to the Filecoin network without the burden of deploying and maintaining their own nodes. Instead of managing synchronization, storage requirements, software updates, and ongoing maintenance, teams can connect to reliable hosted endpoints and begin building immediately.

What is a Filecoin API?

A Filecoin API enables applications to communicate with the Filecoin blockchain through managed endpoints without operating a node. Developers can use the API to submit transactions, retrieve block and transaction data, query network information, monitor blockchain activity, and integrate decentralized storage functionality into their applications. API access is the standard approach for wallets, storage platforms, explorers, and other blockchain services.

Should I run a Filecoin node myself?

Running your own Filecoin node is not necessary for most projects. Operating a node requires significant storage, continuous synchronization, security monitoring, software updates, and dedicated infrastructure. These requirements often make self-hosted nodes costly and time-consuming, especially as your application scales.

What Filecoin APIs does NOWNodes support?

NOWNodes provides Filecoin RPC API through reliable, enterprise-grade infrastructure. The RPC API enables developers to broadcast transactions, retrieve block and transaction data, query network information, and interact with the Filecoin blockchain without maintaining their own nodes.

How do I start using a Filecoin node?

After logging in to NOWNodes and selecting a plan, navigate to the Dashboard in your account and scroll down the page. There you will find the Add a New Key button. Click it to generate your API key, then use it to connect to the Filecoin API.

Can I access Filecoin infrastructure for free?

Yes. You can start with our START plan, which provides access to shared Filecoin infrastructure with up to 100,000 API requests per month.
