Alchemy is now live in Tokyo, with APAC traffic automatically routed to the closest region — no new endpoint or configuration required. Alchemy reports up to 8x lower median latency, roughly 70ms faster requests, and up to 76% lower p95 latency for traffic originating from Japan, positioning the rollout as its widest chain coverage in Asia and the basis for its goal of the fastest infrastructure anywhere.
The launch is part of a broader push into APAC, which Alchemy calls "the epicenter of onchain finance" — citing that nearly two-thirds of the record $4.5 trillion in global stablecoin transfer volume in Q1 '26 originated from the region. It also announced a partnership with DSRV to bring its infrastructure directly to teams in Korea and Japan, citing customers like Bitget (125M+ users) as beneficiaries of ultra-reliable, low-latency infra across chains.
