Vortex Global
One subscription for every Vortex region, with bandwidth shared between them
Vortex Global gives you Yellowstone gRPC in Frankfurt, Amsterdam, London and New York under one subscription. Instead of paying per region, you pay 435 USDC for 30 days and get 5 TB of bandwidth to spend in any of the four regions, then top up when you need more.
The stream itself is the same Vortex you get on a regional plan: same endpoints, same geyser.proto methods, same limits and the same Yellowstone clients.

How bandwidth works
Each 30-day period includes 5 TB (1 TB = 1,000,000,000,000 bytes), shared by all four regions: what you stream in Frankfurt and in New York comes out of the same balance.
- Top-ups add bandwidth to the current period at any time, and can be bought more than once. They don’t extend the period.
- Nothing carries over. Unused bandwidth, top-ups included, ends with its period; the next period starts again at 5 TB.
- Renewing pays for the next 30-day period, which starts when the current one ends. It does not refill the current balance. You can prepay up to twelve periods.
- Usage is in the Vortex dashboard : the shared balance, what each region consumed and the history of past periods.
| Top-up | Price (USDC) | Per TB |
|---|---|---|
| 5 TB | 175 | 35 |
| 10 TB | 350 | 35 |
| 15 TB | 525 | 35 |
| 35 TB | 1,225 | 35 |
| 55 TB | 1,925 | 35 |
| 105 TB | 3,150 | 30 |
When the balance runs out, streaming stops in all four regions until you buy a top-up or a prepaid period starts, and then resumes on its own. Usage is reported about every 60 seconds, so traffic can run slightly past the allowance before access is paused: keep an eye on the balance and top up before it reaches zero.
Set up Vortex Global
Choose Global in the dashboard
Open the Vortex page of the dashboard (sign in with Discord) and select Global instead of Regional.
Register a source IP for each region
Enter the public IP your client connects from in each of the four regions: FRA, AMS, LND and NYC. All four are required on the first purchase. Vortex authorises by source IP, so connect from that address directly, not through a NAT or proxy that rewrites it. You can change the IP of a region later from the dashboard.
Pay in USDC
Pay 435 USDC on Solana from the dashboard. Referral discounts apply. Top-ups and renewals are bought from the same page and don’t ask for the IPs again.
Connect
Point your Yellowstone client at the region you want, exactly as on a regional plan: http://<region>.vortex.raiden.wtf:10001 with fra, ams, lnd or nyc, plaintext gRPC, no x-token. Clients, filters and limits are in Getting Started.

Switching from regional Vortex
Global and regional Vortex, free trials included, can’t run on the same account at the same time. To switch, let your regional subscriptions expire, then buy Global. Remaining regional time is not converted or credited.
A pending checkout for one plan also blocks the other until it is paid, cancelled or expired.
