Ethereum endpoint support
Etherlink nodes use Geth to provide access to both standard Ethereum RPC endpoints and Geth-specific RPC endpoints. These tables list these endpoints and whether Etherlink supports them:

Geth-specific endpoints
This table shows the Geth endpoints that Etherlink nodes support. All other Geth endpoints are not supported. For information about these endpoints, see the Geth documentation at https://geth.ethereum.org/docs.
| Endpoint | Supported | Notes |
|---|---|---|
debug_traceTransaction | Partially | Supported on testnet but not Mainnet |
eth_call | No | Etherlink nodes use the standard Ethereum version of the eth_call endpoint instead of the Geth version |
txpool_content | Partially | Returns the transaction pool on testnet but always returns an empty pool on Mainnet |
ethers.js SDK methods
The Etherlink EVM node supports these ethers.js methods:
| Method | Supported | Notes |
|---|---|---|
provider.getBlock | Yes | |
provider.getTransactionReceipt | Yes | |
provider.getBlockNumber | Yes | |
provider.getBalance | Yes | |
signer.sendTransaction | Yes |
