Pocket Provider for ICON Network

Connect any ICON application to Pocket's decentralized network of data providers to read and write data to all of the ICON blockchains.

Overview

The ICON Pocket Provider is a drop-in replacement for the IconProvider in the ICON SDK for JavaScript. By replacing the default provider with the Pocket Network, your ICON app is able to access a decentralized, scalable array of data providers at a lower cost than commercial alternatives.

If your application connects to the ICON blockchains, you can use Pocket to increase decentralization and lower infrastructure costs!
