BlastAPI Shuts Down: Migrating to GetBlock in Three Lines of Code for Web3 devs

#web3 #blockchain #product

With BlastAPI set to discontinue operations by the end of the month, RPC node provider GetBlock is extending a helping hand to affected Web3 developers.

Through a dedicated migration campaign, teams moving from BlastAPI to GetBlock can claim up to 50% off shared RPC node subscriptions on the Pro and Enterprise plans (find tech manual and migration guide below!)

The offer, valid until November 20, 2025, aims to ensure continuity for developers while unlocking measurable performance gains and greater multi-chain flexibility.

TL;DR

  • BlastAPI is shutting down on October 31, 2025. GetBlock steps in with a limited‑time migration program offering up to  50% off shared RPC node subscriptions.
  • New users can use promo code MIGRATE50 to receive 50% off the Enterprise plan or MIGRATE40 for 40% off the Pro plan, both applied with six-month commitments.
  • Claim the offer by November 20, 2025 by submitting the promo codes through the contact form on GetBlock's website.
  • To migrating users, GetBlock delivers a true upgrade with broader blockchain coverage, stronger architectural performance, and top-tier customer  support unmatched in its segment.

BlastAPI shuts down, GetBlock launches migration campaign with 50% off

BlastAPI’s sudden closure has left many Web3 teams in search of reliable alternatives. GetBlock, with over 100 Layer-1 and Layer-2 blockchains supported including Ethereum, Solana, Tron, and Bitcoin, presents one of the most comprehensive infrastructures on the market.

Migrating projects gain access to key performance enhancements such as broader multi-chain support, archive data availability, secure routing through MEV‑protected endpoints, and globally distributed endpoints across the US, Europe, and Asia.

Transitioning is straightforward: developers submit a contact request on the GetBlock website with the appropriate promo code – MIGRATE50 or MIGRATE40. GetBlock’s team oversees setup from integration to final deployment — minimizing downtime and configuration overhead.

GetBlock vs BlastAPI: Bigger blockchains lineup, faster endpoints, best-in-class support

While BlastAPI maintained a respectable range of networks and developer features, GetBlock’s ecosystem now represents one of the most extensive and high‑performance infrastructures in the RPC market.

Its core advantages include a 60‑plus blockchain edge, faster global response times verified by independent testing, and customer support excellence for all users. The platform’s SOC 2 certification, due by Q4 2025, underscores its commitment to security and enterprise-grade reliability.

Bonus 1: Seamless migration in three lines of code

While for some use-cases, pasting a new API endpoint URL is actually a drop-in replacement, you can’t be too safe.

Migration is as simple as changing your RPC URL. Here's how:

// Blast API (OLD)
const OLD_RPC = "https://eth-mainnet.blastapi.io/YOUR_PROJECT_ID";

// GetBlock API (NEW) - Direct replacement
const NEW_RPC = "https://go.getblock.us/<ACCESS_TOKEN>";

// You're good to go! Your dApp is now using the new endpoint
const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider(NEW_RPC);
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Before switching to a new endpoint, test the connection:

# Sending a request to an Ethereum endpoint
curl -X POST "https://go.getblock.us/<YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN>"\
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_blockNumber",
  "params":[],"id":"getblock"}'

# Expected response
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":"getblock","result":"0x123456789"}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Bonus 2: Should I choose a Pro or Enterprise plan?

Here’s what you need to know about the plans included in the promo campaign.

GetBlock CEO Vasily Rudomanov invites all Web3 teams to explore the platform’s infrastructure stack:

Following the BlastAPI shutdown, GetBlock is prepared to support affected teams with a seamless migration to new RPC node infrastructure.
GetBlock is offering special promotional pricing on its Pro and Enterprise package suites to make the migration immediate and painless.
The whole process is straightforward: contact the team, apply a promo code - MIGRATE50 for Enterprise and MIGRATE40 for Pro package - and GetBlock handles integration. Customers can expect full infrastructure support without extended setup timelines or unexpected costs. For Web3 builders seeking reliable, scalable RPC nodes, this represents a practical opportunity to upgrade their infrastructure layer in 2025.

For affected BlastAPI teams, it’s an opportunity to secure a stable infrastructure foundation and continue building without interruption.

Wrapping up

Migrating isn’t just about replacing your RPC provider; it’s about futureproofing your infrastructure. GetBlock’s consistent uptime, transparent pricing, and ongoing chain integrations make it a dependable option for teams building long‑term in Web3.

This migration offer is the simplest way to make the switch and ensure transition happens quickly, painlessly, and results in an infrastructure upgrade — not just a replacement
