Channel creation
We handshake new clients, connections and channels on day one — including the ordering, version and fee-middleware details that quietly break packets if you get them wrong.

IBC & cross-chain packet delivery, end to end.
Full-stack IBC Relayer service — from channel creation to continuous packet relay, client maintenance, and expired-client recovery. We also run other cross-chain relayers. The interchain only works when packets actually land; our job is to keep that load-bearing part boring.

SRE coverage
One team for the entire IBC lifecycle.
NodeStake provides a one-stop IBC Relayer service — from the moment a channel is created, through years of continuous packet relay, client updates, and the rare-but-critical expired-client recovery. No juggling vendors, no gaps in coverage.
Continuous relay
Hermes and Go relayers running 24/7 with packet-level monitoring, auto-restart, and on-call SRE coverage. Per-channel health published on the status page.
Client maintenance
Tendermint light clients need regular `update-client` traffic to stay within their trusting period. We keep every client fresh across 30+ hubs so packets never stall.
Expired-client recovery
When a client does expire, recovery is a governance-and-engineering exercise. We've done it — we'll draft the proposal, coordinate with the counterparty chain, and restore the channel.
Rollup bridges & other cross-chain relayers.
IBC is only one wire in the interchain. We operate relayers for rollup bridges and general cross-chain messaging too — the same reliability discipline, applied to L1↔L2 traffic and arbitrary message passing.
Rollup bridge relayers
Run the off-chain operators that keep rollup bridges alive — sequencer message relay, withdrawal-proof submission, settlement finalization. OP Stack, Orbit, and custom rollup stacks.
General cross-chain messaging
Relayers for attestation-based and light-client bridges across EVM, Cosmos, and Move chains — queue workers, signer infrastructure, and message finalization.
Custom bridge relayers
Ship your own bridge protocol? We'll operate the relayer tier: dedicated fleets, custom event filters, auditable logs, and an on-call rotation that knows your system.
How teams work with us.
Public channel coverage
100+ active IBC channels across the Cosmos interchain — the ones your dApp and users depend on. Free to use, published health on the status page.
Sponsored new channels & bridges
Launching a new zone or rollup? We'll spin up a relayer pair on day one, sponsor the first year of gas, and monitor reliability under real load.
Private relayer instances
Dedicated relayer fleets for protocols that need isolated capacity, custom event filtering, or auditable packet logs — IBC, rollup bridge, or custom messaging.
