Odaily Planet Daily News Starknet posted on the X platform that the Starknet feeder gateway will be modified in the fourth quarter of 2023 and will stop serving many types of queries. It will reserve sync-related endpoints only for full nodes.
The feeder gateway acts as a gateway for querying the Starknet state centralized sequencer. It was intended to be a temporary solution until full nodes supporting Starknet's JSON-RPC matured and were able to meet the needs of the ecosystem.
Moving to full nodes and API services means transitioning from centralized solutions to decentralized, resilient and efficient systems that comply with the principles of blockchain technology.
It is recommended that Starknet developers turn to API services or full nodes, such as Pathfinder, Juno, and Papyrus.
