Stride (STRD) API Documentation

Stride

Stride (STRD) is a Cosmos SDK Layer 1 for cross-chain liquid staking, using CometBFT consensus while receiving validator security from the Cosmos Hub through Interchain Security. Its application logic runs through Cosmos SDK modules rather than a general-purpose VM, while full nodes maintain account balances, host-zone records, interchain accounts, staking data, IBC packets, and consensus state. This Cosmos architecture makes standard account, transaction, validator, IBC, and module-query primitives the baseline for integrations across Stride and the wider interchain ecosystem.

Stride API Methods and Endpoints

NOWNodes exposes Stride's interface, plus a few others, depending on what your integration needs: JSON-RPC for reading chain state and broadcasting transactions.

Browse the interfaces below for endpoint details, request parameters, response formats, and integration examples. Create an API key, select Mainnet or Testnet, choose the required interface, and start sending requests from your application.
