Tron method guide

Last updated:

eth_blockNumber returns the number of the latest block visible to the selected Tron JSON-RPC node. The result uses the EVM quantity format: a 0x-prefixed hexadecimal string with no unnecessary leading zeroes.

Use this method to establish a current head before requesting blocks or bounded log ranges. It reports a height, not a complete block; use eth_getBlockByNumber when block data is required.

Parameters

This method takes no parameters.

Returns

eth_blockNumber return value
