eth_getProof on Abstract

Measured 2026-10-04 by our weekly probe, which calls eth_getProof through the same Abstract endpoint customers use.

What eth_getProof does

Returns an EIP-1186 Merkle proof for an account and selected storage slots, which a client can verify against the block's state root without trusting the RPC provider.

What to use instead on Abstract

Abstract did not serve eth_getProof in our probe. Without proofs, read balances and storage with eth_getBalance and eth_getStorageAt, which you have to trust the endpoint for.

Example request

curl -s https://rpc.swiftnodes.io/rpc/abstract?key=YOUR_API_KEY \
  -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"eth_getProof","params":["0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000",[],"latest"]}'

import { createPublicClient, http } from "viem";

const client = createPublicClient({ transport: http("https://rpc.swiftnodes.io/rpc/abstract?key=YOUR_API_KEY") });

// Any JSON-RPC method, typed loosely: eth_getProof on Abstract
const result = await client.request({
  method: "eth_getProof",
  params: ["0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000",[],"latest"],
});
