Steem API Health — Daily Report 2026-07-13

On 2026-07-13 (UTC) the monitor tracked 12 Steem API nodes with a global uptime of 78.89% across 16,920 measurements. Median latency across all nodes: 118 ms. Today's full picture and notable patterns below.

All measurements are taken from a single European location (Germany). Latency to nodes hosted outside Europe will naturally be higher than for users connecting from those regions. Want to contribute measurements from your region? See the participation block below.

Observations

• Longest outage today: api.steem.fans, 1410 consecutive failed minutes.
• First failure in 7 days: api.campingclub.me had 1 failed tick today.

Visual detail

Top: latency distribution per node. Middle: hourly performance. Bottom: cross-region comparison (when multi-source data is available).

Methodology: one condenser_api.get_dynamic_global_properties request per node every 60 seconds, 8-second timeout. Full rules and thresholds in MEASUREMENT-METHODOLOGY.
