Build an "Infura-like" service for IoTeX #43
Description
Build an "Infura" service for IoTeX
We would like to see a team building an Infura-like service for IoTeX, to provide the infrastructure for developers to easily develop and test their blockchain applications with simple and reliable access to a high-quality IoTeX API, without the need of deploying a full node.
Context
The IoTeX ecosystem is growing by the day. While the cryptocurrency is on its way to climb the top 100 rankings, more and more developers are attracted by the benefits that IoTeX provides. A solid infrastructure for professional access to the IoTeX network is now a necessity. We welcome any solid team that wants to take over this challenge and build and maintain such a service, inspired by the great work that Infura does for Ethereum developers.
Acceptance criteria
Milestone 1
