Decentralised RPCs join SubQuery’s Consumer Rewards Programme with a 40M $SQT pool, creating one of Web3’s largest developer incentives.
SubQuery, a leading innovator in blockchain infrastructure, has announced a significant expansion of its Consumer Rewards Programme, doubling down on its mission to support developers building the next wave of Web3 applications.
Earlier this year, the company introduced its largest ever incentive initiative, a 60 million $SQT rewards programme focused on data indexing. The programme was created to accelerate adoption of the SubQuery Network as a decentralised, reliable, and developer-friendly solution for accessing blockchain data.
Today, SubQuery confirmed the integration of decentralised RPCs (dRPCs) into the rewards scheme. Backed by a new dedicated pool of 40 million $SQT, the move expands the SubQuery Consumer Rewards Programme to a total of 100 million $SQT, placing it among the largest developer incentive campaigns in the entire Web3 ecosystem.
Why Decentralised RPCs Matter
RPC (Remote Procedure Call) endpoints are the backbone of blockchain connectivity. They enable applications to communicate with blockchains, submit transactions, and retrieve data. Despite their importance, the majority of RPC traffic today is routed through a small group of centralised providers.
This over-reliance introduces significant systemic risks. Service outages, censorship vulnerabilities, and single points of failure run counter to the very ethos of Web3 decentralisation. Leading research firms such as Messari have highlighted the growing dangers of centralised choke points in blockchain infrastructure.
By incentivising dRPC adoption through rewards, SubQuery is tackling this challenge head-on. Their decentralised RPCs provide fast, reliable, and censorship-resistant access that empowers developers to build resilient and truly decentralised applications. This step aligns indexing and RPCs under a unified framework, cementing SubQuery’s role as a full-stack decentralised infrastructure provider.
How the Programme Works
Beginning 1 September 2025, verified projects that consume SubQuery dRPCs will become eligible for monthly rewards. Distribution will mirror the system already used for indexing rewards, ensuring fairness and transparency.
Key programme features include:
- 40 Million SQT dRPC Pool: A dedicated allocation exclusively for RPC usage.
- 100 Million SQT Total: Combined rewards across indexing and RPC incentives.
- Transparent Leaderboards: Projects can track their consumption and see how they rank in real time.
- Top 100 Users Rewarded Monthly: Ensuring recognition goes to active participants.
- Proportional Rewards: The more SQT spent, the larger the share of rewards received.
- Verified Participants: Only genuine projects are eligible, preventing misuse and ensuring legitimacy.
Early adopters are likely to benefit most, with reduced competition in the opening months. This creates an opportunity for developers to secure significant allocations of rewards before participation scales.
Shaping the Future of Web3 Infrastructure
By combining indexing and RPC rewards, SubQuery is creating a holistic, decentralised data layer for Web3. This expansion is more than a financial incentive — it reflects the company’s commitment to building a sustainable developer ecosystem where contributions are recognised and rewarded.
Industry analysts view this expansion as a landmark moment. In a sector where developer adoption directly influences network growth, SubQuery’s initiative stands out as one of the boldest commitments to empowering the Web3 builder community.
