Kraken supercharges global trading with Lava Network's breakthrough RPC infrastructure

Kraken is integrating Lava Network’s Smart Router, a routing and observability layer built by Lava contributor Magma Devs on Lava’s open-source protocol, to improve the resilience of its trading infrastructure as demand scales. The system continuously checks multiple RPC providers and dynamically routes requests to the best-performing endpoint, with the goal of maintaining continuity, reducing failover risk, and adding visibility without extra operational complexity. The broader context is that Lava Network operates as a decentralized RPC routing protocol for blockchain access, coordinating traffic across multiple providers to improve reliability, performance, and privacy. The Kraken story matters because it shows a major exchange adopting infrastructure designed to abstract away provider outages and latency at production scale, building on Lava’s claim of handling more than 170 billion RPC requests and its existing support for high-traffic environments.
