What is FlameWire?
FlameWire is an open, permission-less infrastructure layer that turns the routine act of reading blockchain data into a decentralized public utility. Running as its own subnet on Bittensor, it coordinates a global mesh of full-archive nodes and automatically routes every JSON-RPC call to the healthiest endpoint. For builders, that means a single URL that covers Ethereum, Bittensor, Sui and the chains that follow—without vendor lock-in or regional outages.
Its outward-facing product is a paid API gateway: developers generate a key, top up credits (or stake FlameWire’s ALPHA token for a small free tier) and pay only for the calls they make. Each request burns those credits, and the fees—accepted in USDC, TAO, ETH or SUI—are transparently swapped on-chain for ALPHA and returned to the treasury, anchoring a clear revenue loop while giving customers predictable, usage-based pricing.
Highlights
One endpoint, many chains – Query multiple networks through a single, always-on URL.
Performance without compromise – Full-archive nodes on several continents keep 99 % of calls under 200 ms.
Radically transparent economics – Every credit burn, swap and treasury transfer is visible on-chain 24 / 7.
No single point of failure – Hundreds of independent miners can replace any outage in seconds.
Pay-as-you-go simplicity – Top up credits or stake ALPHA and let costs scale linearly with actual traffic.
