Immutable zkEVM RPC Endpoint

Fast, flat-rate Immutable zkEVM RPC node provider — free tier, no KYC, HTTP & WebSocket.

Immutable zkEVM is a gaming-focused Ethereum Layer 2 built with the Polygon CDK, using IMX for gas to provide low fees for Web3 games. SwiftNodes provides Immutable zkEVM mainnet RPC over HTTP and WebSocket.

About Immutable zkEVM

Immutable zkEVM's mainnet opened in early access for select game studios in early 2024 before broader availability. It is a zero-knowledge rollup that settles to Ethereum and uses Polygon CDK technology.

The chain targets blockchain games with low transaction fees and block times around 2 seconds. IMX is the native gas token, and developers use standard Solidity contracts plus Immutable's gaming-oriented SDKs and APIs for minting, orders, and wallets.

Common Use Cases on Immutable zkEVM

• Web3 game asset minting
• In-game NFT economies
• Gaming marketplaces and orderbooks
• Low-fee microtransactions
• Studio token launches
