Rootstock (RSK) nodes and RPC explorer
NOWNodes as a Rootstock (RSK) node provider delivers fast, stable RPC access—explore RSK remote nodes and XMR nodes.
What is Rootstock (RSK) node?
Rootstock (RSK) node is software that connects to the RSK blockchain, syncs network data, and lets you read state or submit transactions for Bitcoin-secured smart contracts. It provides RPC/WebSocket interfaces similar to Ethereum tooling, enabling developers to interact with accounts, blocks, logs, and contract calls for DeFi, wallets, bridges, and analytics built on Rootstock. A reliable RSK node should offer high uptime, low latency, and consistent synchronization to keep dApps responsive and users’ transactions flowing smoothly. Running infrastructure in-house requires continuous monitoring, updates, and scaling. Using a managed remote Rootstock node provider helps teams launch faster, handle traffic spikes, and reduce DevOps overhead while maintaining stable, production-ready access.
