Getting Started

Pod provides an Ethereum-like interface, so developers can use existing toolchains and wallets out of the box - ethers.js, viem, web3.py, alloy, cast, or any EVM-compatible library. No new SDKs or custom clients required.

import { ethers } from "ethers";

const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider("https://rpc.v1.dev.pod.network");
const balance = await provider.getBalance("0xYourAddress");

Devnet Configuration

Property	Value
Name	pod
RPC	https://rpc.v1.dev.pod.network
Chain ID	1293
Explorer	https://explorer.v1.pod.network
Currency Symbol	pUSD
EVM Version	Prague (Ethereum block 22,431,084, Released May 7th, 2025)

We expect the devnet to have breaking changes or be reset (pruned completely) at any time.

Next Steps

Pod supports standard Ethereum RPC methods under the eth_ namespace, with a few differences due to Pod's blockless architecture. Pod also introduces additional namespaces for protocol-specific and orderbook functionality:

• JSON-RPC - Standard eth_ methods, Pod-specific pod_ extensions, and orderbook data via ob_ endpoints.

• Precompiles - Enshrined applications and internal protocol operations exposed as precompile contracts, callable via eth_call and eth_sendRawTransaction.
