RPC method

eth_getProof on Ethereum Classic

Supported on SwiftNodes

Measured 2026-10-11 by our weekly probe, which calls eth_getProof through the same Ethereum Classic 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.

Example request

curl -s https://rpc.swiftnodes.io/rpc/etc?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/etc?key=YOUR_API_KEY") });

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

Frequently asked questions

Does Ethereum Classic support eth_getProof?

Yes. eth_getProof answered correctly on the SwiftNodes Ethereum Classic endpoint in our weekly method probe (2026-10-11), which sends real requests through the customer path.

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

One key covers every chain we serve, and SwiftNodes has a free tier.
