⚡Blockchains

We support all major public blockchains

expand.network provides connectivity to various EVM and Non-EVM based chains for both, query(Read) and transaction(Write). So now, the developer does not need to worry about how different blockchains work. The developer will be required to know only the chainID to perform multiple operations on different chains.

For example, if a developer wants to send two transactions, one on the Ethereum mainnet and another on Solana, then they just need to call the sendtransaction API with different chain IDs in the request body.

Following are the common APIs implemented for all the various chains:-

createfeetransaction

Write

This endpoint lets users collect fees on transactions via the Expand API or plug-in.

estimategas

Write

Generates and returns an estimate of how much gas would be necessary to complete a transaction.

settrustline

Write

Implement a trustline between issuer and distributor. Currently available on Stellar.

rwa/issue

Write

Executes a payment operation to create (or mint) an asset on the Stellar network.

rwa/freeze

Write

Executes a transaction to revoke an existing trustline’s authorization, thereby freezing the asset held by an account on the Stellar network.

rwa/burn

Write

Executes a transaction to burn or delete an asset on the Stellar network.

rwa/transfer

Sign and send transactions on the chain.

createaccount

write

Initiates a transaction to fund a newly created account using the public key as the account ID.

simulatetransaction

write

Submit a trial contract invocation to simulate how it would be executed by the network. This endpoint calculates the effective transaction data, required authorizations, and minimal resource fee. It provides a way to test and analyze the potential outcomes of a transaction without actually submitting it to the Stellar network.

Write

Calls read functions of verified smart contracts. Available on ethereum.

decodetransaction

Write

Get the decoded transaction for the provided raw transaction. Available on ethereum, binance, avalanche, polygon, cronos, arbitrum, fantom, optimism, solana, stellar and near.

Read

Retrieves approval-related information for a specified address, including token details, amount approved, spender, risk factor, value at risk, and timestamp. This is currently available for EVM chains

Every chain requires a different set of parameters to perform the common operations. Please refer to the sub-sections for details.

To perform sendtransaction() successfully, the user needs to sign the transaction first.
