Frequently Asked Questions

What is Fantom?

Fantom’s Opera chain uses the aBFT Lachesis DAG to finalize transactions in ~1 s; its gas fees stay under a cent even at peak load.

How to get Fantom RPC endpoint?

Sign up for a free Chainstack account and open your project dashboard. In the dashboard, choose Add node, select Fantom, and provision either a dedicated node or an elastic cluster. After the node syncs, open Access & credentials and grab the RPC URL for immediate integration.

How to run a Fantom node?

Launch a Fantom node via Chainstack Global Node for fast start, a Dedicated Node for production workloads, or run your own self-hosted node. Chainstack offers endpoints in multiple regions for low latency.

What is Fantom RPC API?

The Fantom RPC API allows you to query data and send transactions on the Fantom network via JSON-RPC. You can connect through an RPC node provider like Chainstack for quick, scalable access.

How much does it cost to run a Fantom RPC?

Chainstack provides Fantom RPC endpoints at competitive rates, making it more affordable than managing a self-hosted setup, which includes continuous DevOps labor for upkeep and troubleshooting.

Is Fantom RPC free?

There are public Fantom RPC endpoints, but they may be unstable. Chainstack offers a free Developer plan so you can use a Fantom RPC endpoint with dependable performance.

How to setup a Fantom RPC?

Use Chainstack to create a Fantom RPC endpoint in minutes and connect to it directly. The advanced option is to run your own Fantom node from the official open-source repository, requiring infrastructure setup and maintenance.

Notes for Fantom API

When communicating with a Fantom node, the client implements a JSON-RPC specification compatible with Ethereum. The recommended libraries are ethers.js for JavaScript or web3.py for Python.

Uses a DAG-based aBFT consensus (Lachesis) rather than a traditional blockchain structure, enabling near-instant finality.

You can also access Fantom directly through the Chainstack MCP server — query live on-chain data, deploy nodes, request testnet funds from the faucet, and search Chainstack docs from Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, ChatGPT, Codex, Pi, Gemini, or any MCP-compatible or SKILL-compatible AI agent.
