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 \

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.
