Celo RPC
What is Celo?
Celo is an EVM-compatible blockchain designed for real-world payment applications and financial services. Originally launched as a Layer 1 blockchain, Celo has migrated to a Layer 2 architecture while maintaining full compatibility with Ethereum development tools. Celo uses a Proof of Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism and achieves 1-second block finality after its L2 migration. The network supports fee abstraction, allowing gas payments in multiple currencies including native stablecoins like cUSD, cEUR, and cREAL.
The blockchain implements phone number mapping to wallet addresses through a decentralized identity protocol for simplified payments. Celo's algorithmic stability protocol maintains multiple stablecoins pegged to fiat currencies through a reserve mechanism.
Interacting with Celo
Celo provides full Ethereum JSON-RPC compatibility with additional methods for Celo-specific features. Developers can use standard Ethereum tools like Ethers.js, Hardhat, and MetaMask with Celo by configuring the appropriate network endpoints.
Con esta API, puedes:
- Ejecutar todos los métodos JSON-RPC estándar de Ethereum (eth_call, eth_sendTransaction, eth_getBalance)
- Implement fee abstraction to allow gas payments in multiple currencies
- Suscríbete a eventos en tiempo real a través de conexiones WebSocket
Puedes acceder a la API de las siguientes formas:
