Optimism chain ID answer

OP Mainnet mainnet uses chain ID 10 / 0xa, RPC URL https://mainnet.optimism.io, explorer https://explorer.optimism.io, and ETH as the gas token. Copy the fields below and verify them against the linked source docs before using them in a wallet, script, or app.

Chain ID: 10 / 0xa
RPC URL: https://mainnet.optimism.io

Copy OP Mainnet config Open OP Mainnet guide Explorer directory Gas token directory

Good fit when you need:

the OP Mainnet chain ID, RPC URL, explorer, and gas token in one place;
source documentation links beside the copied setup fields;
manual wallet config fields without connecting a wallet or choosing an RPC provider.

Before you paste these fields:

compare the chain ID against the source link on this page;
open the explorer once and confirm it matches the network you expect;
use the public RPC for setup checks, then choose monitored infrastructure for production traffic.

Verification record

Automated source snapshots and recorded probe evidence are tracked separately. The source snapshot timestamp is not a manual review date. This is not a live uptime, latency, or production reliability monitor. If a recorded public RPC probe fails, verify the source links and current endpoint availability before changing production configuration.

OP Mainnet wallet-add fields

Wallet directory sites often expose a connect button. Main.net keeps the same MetaMask and EIP-3085 setup fields as text so developers can compare them with official/source docs before calling wallet_addEthereumChain.

Monitoring evidence

These checks are review signals only. They are not uptime, latency, privacy, or production reliability claims. A source fetch failure or eth_chainId failure can mean a source page or public RPC endpoint was unavailable, changed, or rate-limited during a check. Re-open source links and test current RPC availability before relying on a public endpoint.

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://mainnet.optimism.io

# Expected chain ID: 10 / 0xa

Developer signals

External dashboards a developer may inspect before choosing where to deploy. Main.net links to these references but does not collect the metric values, normalize methodologies, rank chains, or recommend deployments.

Main.net links to external developer-signal dashboards but does not collect, normalize, rank, or republish their metric values in this version.

Safety note

Optimism labels public RPC URLs as rate-limited. Use them for development or light checks, not production-grade app reliability.

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