PORTERS simplifies the creation and management of RPC endpoints for blockchain applications, allowing developers to focus on innovation without the hassle of backend complexities. PORTERS leverages the POKT Network's extensive node infrastructure, consisting of thousands of nodes globally, to provide its RPC services.\n\n### Mission\n\nPORTERS aims to lower the barrier to entry for blockchain development by providing a user-friendly interface and comprehensive documentation. This approach enables even those with minimal blockchain experience to implement complex functionalities. \n\nBy exposing a decentralised RPC service layer for providing seamless access, PORTERS enhances privacy, reduces single points of failure, and provides a more resilient infrastructure for blockchain applications.\n\nWe are the exception by offering Web3-native payments, enabling users to swap their crypto directly to pay for RPC relays without the need to use a credit card.\n\nHere are a few screenshots to give you a glimpse of our interface.\n[![temp-Image-NAHXJY.avif](https://i.postimg.cc/W3fw6xtf/temp-Image-NAHXJY.avif)](https://postimg.cc/5YLzf7Bw)\n\nSwap from your favourite token! \n[![temp-Imagek4bt-F1.avif](https://i.postimg.cc/C1t6LRC1/temp-Imagek4bt-F1.avif)](https://postimg.cc/LYtVx6bK)\n\nChoose from more than 40+ supported chains\n[![temp-Image-J1zc6f.avif](https://i.postimg.cc/Nf78MyB0/temp-Image-J1zc6f.avif)](https://postimg.cc/0bjKXy6g)\n\nStart using PORTERS now and make the little data graph smile :)\n[![temp-Imagew9l-Yz-Q.avif](https://i.postimg.cc/d0dVsCcH/temp-Imagew9l-Yz-Q.avif)](https://postimg.cc/f3zN5JLm)\n\n\n### Progress Since Gitcoin Grant Round 20\n\nSince the last Gitcoin Round, the PORTERS platform was officially launched in early June 2024.\n\nWe have been actively acquiring new users, including public goods projects, and forming partnerships.\n\nOn the technical side, we have been working on several features, including:\n\n1. Integration with additional blockchain networks.\n\t- Together with our partners at Taiko we are now one of very few providers of a free public endpoint that is not rate limited. In the future, we would like to explore how this could benefit other ecosystems as well.\n2. Development of a decentralised data API. \n\nAdditionally, we are currently onboarding several projects that are going to use our RPC services and improve the user experience based on the feedback received during the onboarding process. \n\n\n### Current Team Members\n\n- **Sasquatch** – Partnerships & Community Management\n- **benedictvs** – Business & Development\n- **Matthew** – Full Stack Developer\n- **vicos** – Design & Marketing\n\n### Past Contributors\nWe want to acknowledge and appreciate the invaluable people who contributed to PORTERS' development up until and shortly after its launch:\n\n- **sayonara** – Frontend Developer\n- **plor** – Backend Developer\n\nAnd a special appreciation for [RaidGuild](raidguild.org) which brought the Team together.\n\n### Additional Information\nFor more information, check out the [recording of the talk](https://youtu.be/MIQwe5J6sQA?feature=shared) that PORTERS' representative held during ETH Belgrade in early June 2024.\n\n", "logoImgData": {}, "bannerImgData": {}, "projectGithub": "porters-xyz", "projectTwitter": "PORTERSXYZ"}
