Cloudflare

Cloudflare, Inc. is a United States-based internet infrastructure and security company that provides Web3 gateway services enabling developers to interact with decentralized networks without running their own nodes. Its Web3 product line includes an IPFS gateway and an Ethereum gateway, both delivered as paid add-ons through its global anycast network.

The IPFS gateway provides a read-only, HTTP-accessible interface to the InterPlanetary File System, allowing applications to retrieve distributed content using standard web clients. The Ethereum gateway offers read and write access to the Ethereum network via HTTP, supporting operations such as querying account balances, submitting transactions, and deploying smart contracts. Both gateways cache content at Cloudflare data centers close to end users, reducing latency.

Cloudflare’s Web3 gateways serve decentralized application developers, DeFi projects, NFT platforms, and DAOs that need reliable, scalable access to blockchain and distributed storage infrastructure. Custom domain support via DNSLink and standard JSON-RPC endpoints allows integration with existing Web3 workflows.
