Methodology Report a correction

Glossary Chain ID How wallet and RPC software identify a mainnet network. Glossary RPC endpoint What an RPC URL does and why public endpoints can be rate-limited. Glossary Mainnet The production network context for reviewed chain settings. Gas token ETH gas token Other reviewed mainnet rows that use ETH for gas. Guide Chain ID list Reviewed chain IDs, RPC URLs, explorers, and source links across Main.net.

Monitoring evidence

These checks are review signals only. They are not uptime, latency, privacy, or production reliability claims.

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://worldchain-mainnet.g.alchemy.com/public

# Expected chain ID: 480 / 0x1e0

Safety note

World Chain lists a shared public RPC endpoint. Treat it as a convenience reference and verify provider terms before relying on it for production systems.

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