Electroneum


Electroneum API is available on Web3 API platform.

Electroneum is an IBFT-based blockchain that operates with known validators, ensuring a high level of trust and security. Compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), Electroneum allows developers to easily deploy and interact with smart contracts. The blockchain offers impressive 5-second transaction speeds, facilitated by its unique proprietary instant blockchain finality system.

The finality system ensures that transactions are quickly and irreversibly confirmed, eliminating the need for multiple confirmations and enabling rapid and efficient transactions. Combined with ultra low-cost smart contract fees, Electroneum provides an attractive platform for developers and users alike.

In order for your Web3 application to interact with Electroneum — either by reading blockchain data or sending transactions to the network — it must connect to an Electroneum node. Developers interact with the blockchain using the methods provided by the API.

The API interaction follows the JSON-RPC which is a stateless, light-weight remote procedure call (RPC) protocol. It defines several data structures and the rules around their processing. It is transport agnostic in that the concepts can be used within the same process, over sockets, over HTTP, or in other message-passing environments. It uses JSON (RFC 4627) as data format.
