RPCs

Remote Procedure Calls are a type of API that allows developers to interact with a remote server. In the context of blockchains, RPCs are used to connect dApps to blockchain networks. When a user makes a request to a dApp, the dApp sends the request to an RPC node. The RPC node then executes the request on the blockchain and returns the results to the dApp.

RPC nodes are essential for the development and operation of dApps. They provide a way for dApps to access data and functionality on the blockchain, without having to run their own full nodes. This makes it possible to develop and deploy dApps more easily and efficiently.

RPC nodes are a crucial component in decentralized technology as they grant users the ability to access blockchain data and transmit transactions across diverse networks.

RPC nodes play a pivotal role in fostering seamless communication among various elements that constitute a Decentralized Application (Dapp). This includes the frontend application layer and the backend protocol layer, allowing them to interact harmoniously through a request-reply mechanism that efficiently conveys information between client and server components.
