Metis


Metis API is available on Web3 API platform.

Metis is an Ethereum Layer 2 Rollup platform that offers simple and fast smart contract deployment within the network. Metis provides several solutions to solve the big challenges we face in the Ethereum mainnet, including transaction speed, cost, and scalability.

In order for your Web3 application to interact with Metis — either by reading blockchain data or sending transactions to the network — it must connect to a Metis 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.
