Lisk RPC Endpoint

Flat-rate Lisk RPC provider and Lisk RPC node access: free tier, no KYC, HTTP & WebSocket. Lisk mainnet chain ID 1135.

Lisk is an OP Stack rollup on Ethereum and a Superchain member that uses ETH for gas. It replaced the original Lisk layer 1 in 2024, and in August 2026 the project announced that Lisk Chain will shut down on October 31, 2026.

About Lisk

Lisk began as a layer 1 built with the Lisk SDK. It moved to Ethereum as an OP Stack layer 2, with mainnet live in May 2024 and the user mainnet opening in November 2024. On August 27, 2026 the team announced it will close Lisk Chain on October 31, 2026 and pivot to a business finance platform.

Lisk is EVM-compatible with standard OP Stack RPC behavior. Until the shutdown, the main RPC use is withdrawing assets to Ethereum through Superbridge or the Lisk Bridge, which takes roughly seven to eight days, so withdrawals should start well before the deadline. Projects building on Lisk have a migration path to Celo.

Common Use Cases on Lisk

• Withdrawing assets to Ethereum before shutdown
• Migrating dapps to Celo
• Querying historical Lisk data
