Note:

XLayer uses a re-genesis at block 42,810,021. Historical data before this block is available but stored on legacy nodes and automatically routed when you provide a specific block number for methods like eth_getBlockByNumber, eth_getBalance, and debug_trace*.

Block 42,810,021 itself is untraceable and may return {"code":4444,"message":"pruned history unavailable"}.
