Rino-operated public Monero node. Long-standing, ZeroMQ + RPC, clearnet + Tor + I2P endpoints.
Free · restricted RPC · TLS
Operator-published remote nodes you can point a light wallet at. Pick by trust, transport, and now — by your own browser's latency probe (test button on each row, never auto-pinged so we don't leak your IP). Run your own when you can; this list is for the times you can't.

Runs in your browser, not on our server, so the latency you see is the latency you'll actually get. Heads-up: clicking below sends one request to every listed node from your current IP. If you're not on Tor / VPN, that's n operators that learn you exist. We don't auto-run for that reason.
The curated 20 above are our editorial picks. For the long-tail (~200 clearnet + 156 Tor + 213 I2P operator-published endpoints), open monero.fail directly, or use the JS-enabled view of this page where the list loads inline + can be probed.
