Alchemy has gone live with RPC endpoints, WebSockets, and three indexed Data APIs for the Stellar network, covering both mainnet and testnet. The move hands Stellar developers a production-grade infrastructure layer without the overhead of running custom tooling.
The three indexed APIs give developers access to transfer histories, consolidated token balances through a single request, and NFT holdings spanning both traditional Stellar assets and Soroban-based assets. According to Build on Stellar, the APIs merge classic Stellar and Stellar Smart Contract assets into a single response, cutting out a step that has historically added complexity to application development.
Alchemy provides 99.99% uptime with global redundancy, RPC and WebSocket support, and battle-tested infrastructure with SOC 2 Type II certification. Developers can access all of this using the same API key they already use for other chains supported by the platform.
Before this integration, retrieving a full picture of a user's on-chain activity on Stellar typically required developers to build or maintain a custom indexer, a time-consuming task that pulls resources away from core product work. With Alchemy's Stellar Data API, developers can query indexed Stellar data across native, classic, and Soroban assets, including transfer history, account balances, and NFT holdings, without running their own indexer.
Stellar is a Layer 1 blockchain purpose-built for real-world payments and asset movement, combining high-performance smart contracts, sub-5-second finality, and native access to institutional financial rails. MoneyGram and PayPal integrate directly with Stellar for production settlement and payment flows, and the network currently supports approximately $2 billion in on-chain real-world assets.
The Alchemy integration adds to a growing list of developer tooling arriving on Stellar. SushiSwap V3 launched on Stellar in February 2026, with other key protocols including Blend for lending, Aquarius for AMM liquidity, Upshift for vault infrastructure, and Rails for perpetuals. The arrival of institutional-grade API infrastructure from a provider of Alchemy's scale is likely to lower the barrier further for teams evaluating Stellar as a build target.
