Osmosis RPC Endpoint

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

Osmosis is a Cosmos SDK application chain built as an automated market maker and DeFi hub for the IBC ecosystem. It is non-EVM, using CometBFT (Tendermint) consensus and the OSMO token for governance and fees.

About Osmosis

Osmosis launched its mainnet on June 19, 2021. It is built with the Cosmos SDK and uses CometBFT (Tendermint) BFT consensus, giving instant single-block finality with block times of roughly 5-6 seconds.

OSMO uses 6 decimals (base denom uosmo). Osmosis specializes in customizable AMM pools and cross-chain swaps over IBC. Tooling includes the Cosmos SDK, CosmJS, and the Osmosis CLI/LCD and Tendermint RPC.

Common Use Cases on Osmosis

  • AMM liquidity pools
  • Cross-chain (IBC) swaps
  • Supercharged/concentrated liquidity
  • Staking and governance
  • Cosmos asset trading

Osmosis Ecosystem

Osmosis is a core Cosmos DEX connected via IBC to chains such as the Cosmos Hub, Celestia, and Injective, with apps like Mars Protocol and Levana deployed in its ecosystem.

Note: Osmosis uses its own RPC methods. Refer to the official Osmosis documentation for available methods.

Bridging to Osmosis

Native cross-chain transfers use IBC; external assets reach Osmosis through bridges such as Axelar and the Squid router.

Frequently Asked Questions: Osmosis

Does Osmosis have an EVM chain ID?

No. Osmosis is a non-EVM Cosmos SDK chain and does not use an EVM chain ID. It identifies its network with a Cosmos chain-id string (osmosis-1 for mainnet).

How is Osmosis queried?

Osmosis is queried over CometBFT (Tendermint) RPC and the Cosmos REST/gRPC (LCD) interfaces, typically via CosmJS, rather than Ethereum JSON-RPC.

How many decimals does OSMO have?

OSMO has 6 decimals; the base denomination is uosmo, where 1 OSMO equals 1,000,000 uosmo.

Osmosis guides from the blog

  • Osmosis RPC: Querying the Cosmos DEX Where the AMM Is a Chain ModuleOsmosis is the leading Cosmos DEX — a non-EVM Cosmos SDK chain (osmosis-1) on CometBFT. The twist for developers: the AMM isn't a smart contract you eth_call, it's a native chain module you query over Tendermint RPC, REST, or gRPC. Here's how to read pools, prices, and swaps.
