# C-Chain

Supported JSON-RPC methods for Avalanche mainnet and fuji testnet.

Contract Chain (C-Chain):

The Contract Chain is the default smart contract blockchain on Avalanche and enables the creation of any Ethereum-compatible smart contracts. This blockchain is for applications that require total ordering (for faster asset transfers or any other commutative application, use the Exchange Chain). The Contract Chain implements the [Snowman](https://support.avax.network/en/articles/4058299-what-is-the-snowman-consensus-protocol) consensus protocol.&#x20;

The trailing endpoint for C-Chain calls is:

```
To interact with C-Chain via the JSON-RPC endpoint via HTTPS:
/ext/bc/C/rpc (for all eth_ methods)
/ext/bc/C/avax (for all avax. methods)

To interact with C-Chain via the JSON-RPC endpoint via Websocket:
/ext/bc/C/ws

To interact with other instances of the EVM via the JSON-RPC endpoint:
/ext/bc/blockchainID/rpc

(where "blockchainID" is the ID of the EVM chain)
```
