Arkiv is the node on the v1.0.0-alpha.0 GolemDB line. Its genesis holds the full Sourcify export of verified Ethereum contracts. Two other Sourcify nodes, Legacy and Alternative, use the same chain ID, 7706815. Only the genesis hash tells them apart, so check it before you rely on this node.

All three report chain ID 7706815 (0x7598bf). Values read from each RPC on 2026-10-22.
The node is built from three repositories. arkiv's Cargo.lock pins the golemdb and reth commits, so the arkiv tag alone fixes the other two. Each tag's message lists all four commits. arkiv, golemdb and reth are public. arkiv-prefill is private.
arkiv-reth, arkiv-cli

This is the alpha.0 fork tag. reth runs CI on every tag push, so it gets no second tag. The client version above reports a91d851.
