trace_block on Mantle

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

What trace_block does

Returns Parity-style traces for every transaction in a block: internal calls, contract creations and value transfers. Indexers use it to reconstruct internal ETH movements that receipts do not show.

What to use instead on Mantle

Mantle did not serve the trace_* namespace in our probe, which is common on OP Stack and zk chains. The debug_* namespace works on Mantle: use debug_traceBlockByNumber with the callTracer for the same internal-call data.

Example request

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

import { createPublicClient, http } from "viem";

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

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