Endpoint and plans: Tron RPC endpoint. Chain check: expected Tron value and how to check it.

net_version returns the network identifier as a decimal string. The response is a string even though it contains only decimal digits.

Use it for compatibility with clients that still inspect the net namespace. For modern EVM chain selection, eth_chainId exposes the same identifier using the standard hexadecimal quantity representation.

Parameters

JSON-RPC params must be an empty array.
