BNB Smart Chain method guide

Last updated:

eth_getBlockByNumber returns a BNB Smart Chain block selected by tag or hex block number, or null when it is unavailable.

Set fullTransactions to false for transaction hashes or true for transaction objects. The block fields and all numeric quantities use the EVM JSON-RPC encoding defined by the OpenRPC schema.

Use this method when block metadata or transaction membership is required. For only the transaction count, eth_getBlockTransactionCountByNumber is smaller; for all receipts, use eth_getBlockReceipts.
