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://polygon.drpc.org

# Expected chain ID: 137 / 0x89

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.

Safety note

Show chain type clearly so users do not confuse L1, L2, and sidechain assumptions.

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