Plasma is a payments-focused Layer 1 blockchain built for stablecoin payments. It is EVM-compatible and produces a block about every second. Its native token is XPL. Block explorer: https://plasmascan.to Plasma’s own developer documentation: https://docs.plasma.org

State methods such as eth_call and eth_getBalance, and the Debug API, work for any block back to genesis. eth_getProof is the exception: it serves the latest block only.

The Trace API (trace_*) is not available on Plasma. Use the Debug API for call traces.

WebSocket clients MUST respond to server ping frames, otherwise the connection will be closed and re-established every minute.

Getting Started

Send a request to check that your endpoint works. Replace <YOUR_API_KEY_HERE> with the key from your endpoint in the Validation Cloud app.

curl https://mainnet.plasma.validationcloud.io/v1/<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE> \
    -X POST \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_blockNumber","params":[],"id":0}'

Connect over WebSocket:

wscat -c wss://mainnet.plasma.validationcloud.io/v1/wss/<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>
