Ethereum Classic chain ID 61 and mainnet RPC URL

Ethereum Classic is an EVM-compatible L1. The Ethereum Classic site lists mainnet chain ID 61 and public RPC endpoints; its explorer page lists third-party explorers.

viem chain definition

Read-only snippet generated from reviewed Main.net fields. Review official sources before production use.

import { defineChain } from 'viem'

export const ethereumClassicMainnet = defineChain({
  id: 61,
  name: "Ethereum Classic",
  nativeCurrency: {
    name: "ETC",
    symbol: "ETC",

wagmi read-only config

Read-only transport example generated from reviewed fields. It does not include account adapters or transaction actions.

import { createConfig, http } from 'wagmi'
import { ethereumClassicMainnet } from './ethereum-classic'

export const config = createConfig({
  chains: [ethereumClassicMainnet],
  transports: {
    [ethereumClassicMainnet.id]: http("https://etc.rivet.link"),

ethers read-only provider

Read-only JsonRpcProvider example generated from reviewed fields. It does not create a signer.

import { JsonRpcProvider } from 'ethers'

export const provider = new JsonRpcProvider("https://etc.rivet.link", {
  chainId: 61,
  name: "ethereum-classic",
})

const network = await provider.getNetwork()
console.log(network.chainId)

curl eth_chainId check

Minimal JSON-RPC identity check. This verifies the endpoint-reported chain ID only, not uptime or production suitability.

curl -s -X POST \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"eth_chainId","params":[]}' \
  https://etc.rivet.link

# Expected chain ID: 61 / 0x3d

Developer signals

Safety note

Ethereum Classic emphasizes running a local client for maximum trustlessness and treats public RPC endpoints as convenience infrastructure.

Main.net is an independent reference site. It does not operate this chain, custody assets, execute transactions, or provide investment advice.
