eth_getTransactionReceipt on PulseChain

Supported on SwiftNodes

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

What eth_getTransactionReceipt does

Returns the outcome of a mined transaction: status (1 success, 0 reverted), gas used, the effective gas price, the logs it emitted and any contract it created. It returns null until the transaction is in a block.

eth_getTransactionReceipt on PulseChain: what we measured

Fields14
Receipt for an unknown hashnull
Size of the sample receipt2.8 KB

Reading the fee and fields

The fee is gasUsed × effectiveGasPrice, the same as on Ethereum: PulseChain receipts carry no separate L1 or data fee field.

A hash the node has not seen returns null, not an error, so poll until it is non-null (viem's waitForTransactionReceipt does this) and give up after a timeout.

A real PulseChain receipt

As our endpoint returned it; logs collapsed to a count and long hex values shortened.

Frequently asked questions

Does PulseChain support eth_getTransactionReceipt?

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

How do I get the total fee of a transaction on PulseChain?

gasUsed × effectiveGasPrice from the receipt.

Why is the PulseChain receipt null?

The transaction is not in a block yet, or the hash is unknown to the node. Keep polling with a timeout.

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

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