Crust Network is a decentralized storage blockchain protocol that incentivizes storage orders and utilization of IPFS storage nodes. It is one of the largest decentralized storage systems, enabling easy hosting of websites, dApps, NFTs, and personal files. Developers building on Crust need reliable RPC endpoints to interact with the network—reading blockchain data, submitting transactions, and integrating storage functionality into their applications.
