Metis public RPC endpoints, tested

Every keyless Metis (chain ID 1088) endpoint listed on Chainlist and chainid.network, tested the same way on 2026-10-11: does it answer on the right chain, how fast, how far behind the best head, how large an eth_getLogs range it accepts, whether it keeps archive state, and whether its WebSocket actually streams. 7 of 12 HTTP endpoints were working.

Working HTTP endpoints

Endpoint	Latency	eth_getLogs	State
https://metis-rpc.publicnode.com	15 ms	10,000+	archive (1M+)
https://metis.drpc.org	23 ms	under 1,000	archive (1M+)
https://lb.routeme.sh/rpc/evm/1088	50 ms	1,000	none
https://rpc.swiftnodes.io/rpc/metis (SwiftNodes, keyless: 2 req/s)	50 ms	10,000+	archive (1M+)
https://metis-public.nodies.app	109 ms	under 1,000	archive (1M+)
https://andromeda.metis.io/?owner=1088	116 ms	10,000+	archive (1M+)
https://metis.api.onfinality.io/public	245 ms	under 1,000	none

Order: endpoints within 3 blocks of the best head first, then by median latency. Latency is measured from one server, so yours will differ by region; lag and limits do not.
