Hoodi is Ethereum’s current recommended long-term testnet for validator testing and protocol development. It replaced Holesky as the primary testnet for staking infrastructure teams after Holesky encountered issues with its validator set. Hoodi is designed for teams building validator client software, liquid staking protocols, restaking systems and any infrastructure that needs to test deposit and withdrawal flows before mainnet. It is not a general-purpose dApp testnet, for smart contract testing Sepolia remains the recommended choice. If your team builds or operates Ethereum validator infrastructure, Hoodi is the testnet environment your CI/CD pipeline and staging environment should target.
Why BoltRPC
BoltRPC's 2-week free trial includes testnet access. Your Hoodi workflow uses the same endpoint format, the same API key, and the same infrastructure quality as your Ethereum mainnet setup. No separate accounts or configurations for testnet.
Hoodi is specifically designed for long-term Ethereum protocol testing, with a focus on validator and staking infrastructure. Teams building validator tooling, liquid staking protocols, and restaking systems use Hoodi as their staging environment. Reliable testnet RPC access matters when you are building infrastructure that will run in production.
Public testnet RPCs drop connections, hit rate limits, and lag behind the chain tip. BoltRPC gives your Hoodi workflows the same stability as your mainnet setup. No broken test pipelines from unreliable endpoints.
Use BoltRPC on Hoodi and Ethereum mainnet from the same provider. One API key, one endpoint format, one configuration to manage.
Subscribe to Hoodi testnet events via WebSocket. Useful for integration test suites that need real-time block confirmation events.
