Polygon default RPC needs updating

Open ghost opened this issue 4 years ago • 4 comments

Hello,

It seems that the default Polygon network RPC is causing metamask gas estimation issues, as well as frequent inability to submit new TXs and/or receive timely confirmations. All problems were solved when I used polygonscan.com button to re-add the network with a new RPC (see bottom of their main page for the "add polygon network" button.

This is the old/slow RPC URL provided by chainlist: https://rpc-mainnet.matic.network

This is the updated RPC URL provided by polygonscan.com: https://rpc-mainnet.maticvigil.com/

Please update this default RPC URL as it is very problematic, especially when there is traffic on the network. Thanks

Can confirm. Balances are lost/not updated, which makes it close to impossible to do transactions. Behaviour seems intermittent so it seems the RPC service is not stable.

Changing it to https://polygon-rpc.com did it for me.

Thanks for confirming, although I am not sure where you found this link. The one I provided comes from polygonscan official page themselves ("add polygon network" button).

Found the link, together with the official ones, on a random Medium post about adding Polygon manually to MM. Will update to the official URL.
