eth_getTransactionByHash on Blast

Supported on SwiftNodes

Everything below was measured on 2026-10-13 by calling eth_getTransactionByHash on Blast through the same endpoint customers use, and is re-measured weekly.

What eth_getTransactionByHash does

Returns a transaction by its hash: sender, recipient, value, input data, gas fields and signature, plus the block it was included in. It returns null for a hash the node does not know, and a transaction still in the mempool has a null blockNumber.

Transaction types on Blast

Types of the 69 transactions in five consecutive blocks when we measured. Decoders that reject unknown types will fail on Blast if any of these is missing from their list.

0x2 EIP-1559	62 (90%)
0x7e L1-to-L2 deposit (OP Stack)	5 (7%)
0x0 legacy	2 (3%)

Fields beyond Ethereum's

Type 0x7e (L1-to-L2 deposit (OP Stack)) transactions carry extra fields. sourceHash: the unique ID of an L1-to-L2 deposit, derived from its L1 origin; mint: the amount of ETH minted on L2 by a deposit; depositReceiptVersion: the version of the deposit receipt format.

A real Blast transaction

A type 0x2 transaction from one of the latest blocks, as our endpoint returned it (long hex values shortened).

Frequently asked questions

Does Blast support eth_getTransactionByHash?

Yes. eth_getTransactionByHash answered on the SwiftNodes Blast endpoint when our weekly probe called it through the customer path (2026-10-13).

Which transaction types does Blast use?

In five recent blocks: 5 × 0x7e (L1-to-L2 deposit (OP Stack)), 62 × 0x2 (EIP-1559), 2 × 0x0 (legacy).

Why does eth_getTransactionByHash return null on Blast?

The node does not know the hash: it was never broadcast, it was dropped from the mempool, or it was sent to another chain. Check the hash and the chain ID before retrying.

Blast endpoints, live block height and WebSocket status are on the Blast RPC page.
