GetBlock Emerges as Asia’s Fastest Solana RPC Provider in February 2026

GetBlock is beginning to bear real results from its expansion in Asia. Recent benchmarking data released in February 2026 by CompareNodes indicate that the company now has the lowest average response times for Solana RPC in Asian regions. The figures place GetBlock ahead of all the top competitors featured in the report.

The performance gain follows GetBlock’s mid-2025 rollout of a Singapore infrastructure cluster on the premise that Asia would become one of Web3’s primary growth engines. Less than a year later, independent performance data and internal revenue figures suggest that the call was accurate.

The Latency Gap Is Clear

CompareNodes February analysis reports an average Solana RPC latency of 147 milliseconds across Asia for GetBlock. Competing providers in the report recorded average latencies ranging from 196 ms to 391 ms.

The difference becomes even more noticeable in South Asia and parts of the Middle East. In markets like Bahrain, the UAE, Mumbai, and Hyderabad, GetBlock maintained sub-140ms performance. Competitors, by contrast, showed wider latency variability and less consistent delivery outside select East Asian data hubs.

For developers and trading platforms, that kind of gap matters. RPC latency directly affects how fast applications respond, how efficiently trades execute, and how reliably infrastructure handles peak loads. In fast-moving blockchain environments, milliseconds are not trivial.

Asia Is Now the Revenue Engine

GetBlock reports that its internal metrics for December 2025 show slightly more than half of the company’s users are in Asia and that Asia accounted for 68% of the company's total revenue. The imbalance indicates higher usage, more deployments, or more significant enterprise adoption in the region.

New subscription trends point in the same direction. Hong Kong accounts for 11% of new sign-ups, Japan 9%, and Singapore 6%. Mainland China, Thailand, Taiwan, Malaysia, and Indonesia collectively accounted for 45% of new customer growth.

Asia’s blockchain infrastructure market is crowded. Established names like Blockdaemon operate alongside newer players such as dRPC and Validation Cloud. On paper, feature lists often look similar. In practice, real-world latency and consistency across regions tend to differentiate providers, and the data currently favor GetBlock.

Built for Performance, Not Just Presence

The performance is the result of specialized performance optimizations rather than standard node infrastructure deployment. GetBlock’s Singapore cluster runs full and archival nodes for 100+ blockchains, with each node independently tuned (including gRPC-enabled Solana RPC, BDN-enabled BSC, and Clio-powered XRP Ledger).

In late 2025, the company released three internal products aimed at high-performance use cases: StreamFirst to enable faster on-chain change detection, LandFirst to accelerate transaction settlement, and IndexFirst to provide archive data via a flexible SDK. These products target high-throughput trading systems and blockchain applications that consume large amounts of data.

Lunar New Year Incentive

GetBlock is celebrating Lunar New Year with 50% off its Pro Shared Node plan through February 17, priced at $249 instead of $499. It includes 500 RPS, 600M compute units, archival access, and a free Shared Node Starter plan for anyone who purchases dedicated nodes.

GetBlock CEO Vasily Rudomanov described the milestone as the result of sustained experimentation and infrastructure refinement, underscoring the company’s commitment to Asia’s developer and enterprise communities.

Rudomanov added. 

As Asia continues to shape global Web3 growth, the region’s infrastructure competition is becoming more performance-driven. Based on February’s data, GetBlock has positioned itself at the front of that race, at least for now.

Headwind Helps Best Wallet Token

The post Headwind Helps Best Wallet Token appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Google has announced the launch of a new open-source protocol called Agent Payments Protocol (AP2) in partnership with Coinbase, the Ethereum Foundation, and 60 other organizations. This allows AI agents to make payments on behalf of users using various methods such as real-time bank transfers, credit and debit cards, and, most importantly, stablecoins. Let’s explore in detail what this could mean for the broader cryptocurrency markets, and also highlight a presale crypto (Best Wallet Token) that could explode as a result of this development. Google’s Push for Stablecoins Agent Payments Protocol (AP2) uses digital contracts known as ‘Intent Mandates’ and ‘Verifiable Credentials’ to ensure that AI agents undertake only those payments authorized by the user. Mandates, by the way, are cryptographically signed, tamper-proof digital contracts that act as verifiable proof of a user’s instruction. For example, let’s say you instruct an AI agent to never spend more than $200 in a single transaction. This instruction is written into an Intent Mandate, which serves as a digital contract. Now, whenever the AI agent tries to make a payment, it must present this mandate as proof of authorization, which will then be verified via the AP2 protocol. Alongside this, Google has also launched the A2A x402 extension to accelerate support for the Web3 ecosystem. This production-ready solution enables agent-based crypto payments and will help reshape the growth of cryptocurrency integration within the AP2 protocol. Google’s inclusion of stablecoins in AP2 is a massive vote of confidence in dollar-pegged cryptocurrencies and a huge step toward making them a mainstream payment option. This widens stablecoin usage beyond trading and speculation, positioning them at the center of the consumption economy. The recent enactment of the GENIUS Act in the U.S. gives stablecoins more structure and legal support. Imagine paying for things like data crawls, per-task…
