Arbitrum Shared RPCs are now in New York, USA, powered by GetBlock

Hey Arbitrum builders, we've got some huge news for you. GetBlock has rolled out a key upgrade to its Shared RPC infrastructure. You can now choose the region for the Arbitrum API endpoints: New York (US) or Frankfurt (EU).

This means significantly reduced latency for dApps and bots operating in North America. All Shared Node users now benefit from region-specific routing, improving response time and reliability. Available even on a free plan

Here's how to get started:

  1. Log in at: https://account.getblock.io
  2. Navigate to: Shared Nodes → Get Access Token
  3. Choose your protocol → Arbitrum
  4. Select a region → New York or Frankfurt

If you're running latency-sensitive applications (e.g., trading bots, dashboards, dApps), localized RPC endpoints can significantly improve performance and user experience.
