Check the genesis hash yourself before trusting any endpoint:
curl -s https://argos.creditchain.org -H 'content-type: application/json' \ -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"eth_getBlockByNumber","params":["0x0",false]}'Public endpoints
Section titled “Public endpoints”| Service | URL |
|---|---|
| JSON-RPC, pinned to Argos | https://argos.creditchain.org |
| JSON-RPC, current testnet | https://testnet.creditchain.org |
| Explorer | https://scan.creditchain.org |
| Faucet | https://faucet.creditchain.org |
argos.creditchain.org always means Argos. testnet.creditchain.org follows whichever release
is current, and will move when the next one arrives. Pin the one you mean.
Release names
Section titled “Release names”Releases are named after the city-states of ancient Greece, in rough order of antiquity.
A release is proven on <name>-testnet and promoted to <name> on mainnet, so “this was
tested” can be checked by comparing the two chains. Argos is first; Knossos is next.
Mainnet
Section titled “Mainnet”Argos mainnet has not launched — see mainnet for what has to be true before it does, and how to check the chain you join is the one that was announced.
