Case Study: Kyber Network achieves 107x more reliability and 26x fewer user complaints with Alchemy

How Kyber leverages Alchemy to build scalable blockchain protocols

Kyber Network, a leading blockchain liquidity protocol that processed nearly 40,000 transactions totaling $50M in July 2019, faced unreliable third‑party infrastructure—crashing nodes, slow responses, and inconsistent data—that drained engineering resources and hurt the user experience. After benchmarking vendors, Kyber chose Alchemy’s infrastructure platform, including enhanced APIs, tooling, and dedicated support, to relieve infrastructure burdens and let the team focus on core product development.

Alchemy delivered a far more reliable platform (estimated 107x more stable), cutting user issues from daily to fewer than a couple per year and reducing user complaints by 26x, while saving Kyber 2,160+ engineering hours. With Alchemy’s reliability, uptime, and support, Kyber’s engineers now spend 100% of their time on product work and the protocol can scale with correct, consistent blockchain data.
