Account history
In this test, it is measured how many account operation a node can stream.
List of working nodes - account history
This table includes all nodes which were able to stream at least one account history operation within 15 seconds.The achieved minimum, maximum and mean account transaction per seconds values are shown. When a node failes, its mean value is reduced as it is counted as 0 history operation per seconds

Summary of working nodes for HIVE
A node is working, when it could fullfil at least once in the last 24h the following conditions:
- returned data within 30 seconds,
- blocks could be streamed,
- account history was possible,
- votes, a comment, an account could successfully be fetched and were not empty.
The nodes in the following table are ranked by the mean rank of all three node tables shown above.
This table includes only nodes which were passing all three tests sucessfully.
The shown ranks are: block rank - block_diff rank - history rank - apicall rank
| node | ranks | score | HIVE |
|---|---|---|---|
| https://api.hive.blog | 5 - 2 - 1 - 1 | 87.5 | True |
| https://anyx.io | 6 - 7 - 2 - 3 | 62.5 | True |
| https://api.steemit.com | 2 - 4 - 4 - 6 | 62.5 | False |
| https://api.hivekings.com | 3 - 3 - 5 - 4 | 62.5 | True |
| http://anyx.io | 7 - 8 - 3 - 2 | 55.0 | True |
| https://api.steemitdev.com | 4 - 5 - 6 - 5 | 47.5 | False |
| https://steemd.minnowsupportproject.org | 1 - 6 - 7 - 7 | 42.5 | False |
| https://steemd.privex.io | 8 - 1 - 8 - 8 | 30.0 | False |
Set fully working nodes with beempy / steempy
https://api.steemitstage.com, https://api.steemitdev.com and nodes with not working results were excluded.
beempy
beempy set nodes "['https://api.hive.blog', 'https://anyx.io', 'https://api.hivekings.com', 'http://anyx.io']"
steempy
steempy set nodes https://api.hive.blog,https://anyx.io,https://api.hivekings.com
Receive fully working nodes from json_metadata of the account
The nodes are also stored in the json_metadata variable of the
The nodes inside the account metadata are updated every hour.
The json_metadata includes the following data:
nodes- list of nodes that passed all tests.failing_nodes- list of nodes that did not answer theget_configcall.report- test results.parameter- usedbeemand test parameter.
Example code for python:
from beem.account import Account
import json
acc = Account("fullnodeupdate")
nodes = json.loads(acc["json_metadata"])["nodes"]
acc.steem.set_default_nodes(nodes)
