# Public endpoints

Osmosis supports the following RPC protocols:

  • URI over HTTP
  • JSON-RPC 2.0 over HTTP
  • JSON-RPC 2.0 over websockets (might be deprecated in the future).

Anyone can setup a node exposing endpoints to communicate with the Osmosis blockchain, for convenience there are also some public endpoints available for querying the chain. These are recommended for development and testing purposes. For maximun control and reliability it's recommended to run your own node. This can be easility accomplsihed by using the get.osmosis.zone installer.

# Chain Registry

This repo contains a chain.json and assetlist.json for a number of cosmos-sdk based chains. A chain.json contains data that makes it easy to start running or interacting with a node.

TIP

Did you know there is also an NPM package that fetch chain-registry data?
