Grove is winding down. After nine years, this is goodbye, and a thank you for everything we built together. We began as @POKTnetwork Inc., founded in 2017 by @o_rourke , Valeria Benitez Florez, Pabel de Jesus Nunez Landestoy Nunez, and @luyzdeleon . Over a hundred amazing people passed through the company along the way, and their work fills more than 250 open-source repositories across the Pocket Network and Grove GitHub organizations. Together we built two versions of the Pocket Network protocol and its first gateway, the Grove Portal, which settled more than a trillion requests across 60+ blockchains. Pocket Network continues on, permissionless by design and stewarded by the Pocket Network Foundation. In 2026 we moved up the stack, and bet that money, not hyperlinks, was the internet’s best quality signal. We built a platform for humans and agents to pay creators directly, and became one of the first adopters of x402, the open payment protocol for the internet. In five months, nearly a thousand fans paid over 400 creators more than 6,000 times for their content. You proved quality is worth paying for. To our partners, our investors, our teammates past and present, and the Pocket Network community we grew up in: thank you for betting on us, twice. The ideas don’t retire with the company. Our code stays open source, and both of our theses stand: 1. neutral, permissionless access to public-goods infrastructure is foundational to the internet’s future. 2. the agentic internet will need a way to pay humans for genuine, tasteful content. With gratitude from the grove.city team, @ArtSabintsev , @fredt_io, and @olshansky

If you're still on Google Blockchain Node Engine, you can't spin up new nodes anymore. June 15 was the cutoff. Dec 15 is the deletion 🪦 Google's recommended migration path bills on credits. On archive/trace workloads — exactly what BNE attracted, that's a 3-5x bill jump vs flat Request Units (1 per full-node call, 2 for archive). We did the math against real workloads: 📊 $49 vs $208 (default) 📊 $199 vs $703 (data-heavy) 📊 $49 vs $242 (wallet) Full migration math + network mapping for @ethereum, @0xPolygon, and @solana 👇🏻 chainstack.com/how-to-migrat…

Your AI agent can now ask @ChainstackHQ for a discount. Also custom quotas, dedicated node setups, account help. Anything that needs a human touch at Chainstack. The agent drafts from your codebase and usage, shows the exact text, sends on your confirm.

We agree with the pricing analysis by @DwellirOfficial and the implication that @ChainstackHQ 🛠️💙 is near them in price-million requests. Since both support many protocols in common for JSON-#RPC and #WebSocket and both have a $49/mo plan, we purchased our own subscriptions to analyze their performance using our global RPC Inspector Pro. Based on 15 runs over the course of 5 consecutive days, it appears to us that Chainstack serves better performance on ##Ethereum #Mainnet in 43 of the 45 (global) performance metrics that we measured: see screenshot
