Pocket Network partners with GetBlock on RPC services

Decentralized infrastructure protocol Pocket Network (POKT) has announced a strategic partnership with node provider platform GetBlock. Under the agreement, GetBlock will receive RPC services at wholesale prices for all blockchain networks supported by Pocket Network, allowing it to operate nodes for various chains at a lower cost. Pocket Network stated that payments will be made in POKT tokens based on RPC usage, an arrangement it expects will increase demand for the token and potentially create a deflationary effect.
