Steem API Health · 2026-10-10

On 2026-10-10 (UTC) the monitor tracked 12 Steem API nodes with a global uptime of 83.56% across 16,944 measurements. Median latency across all nodes: 163 ms. Today's full picture and notable patterns below.

All measurements are taken from a single European location (Germany). Latency to nodes hosted outside Europe will naturally be higher than for users connecting from those regions. Want to contribute measurements from your region? See the participation block below.

Observations

  • Longest outage today: steemd.blazeapps.org, 1412 consecutive failed minutes.
  • Fastest node: api.campingclub.me at 54 ms average. That is 284 ms below the fleet average of 338 ms across 11 nodes.
  • Slowest node: steem.justyy.com at 937 ms average. That is 599 ms above the fleet average of 338 ms.
  • Consistent leader: api.campingclub.me has been in the top 3 by latency every day this week.
  • Consistent leader: steemd.steemworld.org has been in the top 3 by latency every day this week.
  • Consistent laggard: api.steemyy.com has been in the bottom 3 by latency every day this week.

Visual detail

Steem API Health · detail · 2026-10-10

Top: latency distribution per node. Middle: hourly performance. Bottom: cross-region comparison (when multi-source data is available).

Methodology: one condenser_api.get_dynamic_global_properties request per node every 60 seconds, 8-second timeout. Full rules and thresholds in MEASUREMENT-METHODOLOGY.
