Shared blockchain nodes for Togo's spotty connections
Rural Togolese entrepreneurs are unable to run blockchain nodes or access decentralized apps due to unreliable and slow internet connectivity.
RuralNodeHub runs pooled, geo-optimized nodes in Lomé urban hubs, providing API access with built-in retry logic and data queuing for rural users. Users get dedicated virtual slices with guaranteed low-latency peering over Togo's backbone. Syncs data during peak hours, accessible anytime via resilient SDK.
