[Hash] ``` **Response:** ``` I've checked the status for that transaction. Here are the details: - **Status:** Success - **Block Number:** 19283746 - **Gas Used:** 45,200 - **Transaction Receipt:** - **From:** 0x742d... - **To:** 0x9a3b... - **Value:** 1.25 ETH Everything went through as expected. ``` **Prompt:** ``` Can you check my balances on both Ethereum and Solana? ``` **Response:** ``` I've pulled your current balances from both networks: | Network | Balance | | :--- | :--- | | **Ethereum** | 1.25 ETH | | **Solana** | 12.45 SOL | Would you like me to check your token holdings on Solana as well? ``` **Prompt:** ``` Give me a summary of the Bitcoin network right now. ``` **Response:** ``` Here is the current state of the Bitcoin blockchain: - **Current Blocks:** 832,104 - **Network Difficulty:** 75.73T - **Network Hashrate:** 580.21 EH/s The network is processing blocks normally. ``` ## Capabilities ### Query balances across multiple chains Get native balances and token holdings for wallets on Ethereum, Solana, and other networks. ### Fetch real-time block data Retrieve current block heights, hashes, and network metadata instantly. ### Retrieve transaction receipts Check the status and details of past transactions to confirm successful execution. ### Run deep transaction traces Analyze smart contract behavior by pulling every step of a transaction's execution. ### Execute custom JSON-RPC methods Use the rpc_call tool to run any standard method supported by the GetBlock node. ### Analyze and create Bitcoin PSBTs Create and inspect Partially Signed Bitcoin Transactions for complex multi-sig workflows. ## Use Cases ### Debugging a failed swap A developer asks why a transaction failed. The agent uses debug_trace_transaction to find the exact line of code that reverted. ### Portfolio monitoring A user wants to see their total holdings. The agent calls eth_get_balance and sol_get_token_account_balance to sum up assets. ### Chain research An analyst wants to know the current Bitcoin stats. The agent uses btc_getblockchaininfo to pull hashrate and block data. ### Gas optimization A user is about to send a large transfer. The agent runs eth_estimate_gas to ensure they have enough for the transaction. ## Benefits - Stop switching tabs by querying Ethereum, Solana, and Bitcoin data in one place. - Debug smart contracts faster using debug_trace_transaction to see every execution step. - Save time on manual research with btc_getblockchaininfo for instant network stats. - Prevent failed transactions by using eth_estimate_gas to check costs before sending. - Monitor your portfolio across multiple chains with sol_get_balance and eth_get_balance. - Access any custom blockchain method using the flexible rpc_call tool. ## How It Works The bottom line is you get a direct line to 50+ blockchains without managing a single node. 1.
