Plasma RPC is the API your application uses to read Plasma blockchain data, call smart contracts, and submit signed transactions. Plasma is an EVM-compatible Layer 1 built for stablecoin payments, using Reth for execution and PlasmaBFT for consensus. Chainstack provides managed Plasma JSON-RPC endpoints for mainnet and testnet.
Create a free Chainstack account, create a project, and deploy a Plasma Global Node on mainnet or testnet. Open Access and credentials to copy your HTTPS and WebSocket URLs. The Developer plan includes 3 million request units per month, up to 25 requests per second, and one node. No credit card is required.
A Chainstack Plasma mainnet endpoint follows https://plasma-mainnet.core.chainstack.com/YOUR_ENDPOINT_ID; testnet uses https://plasma-testnet.core.chainstack.com/YOUR_ENDPOINT_ID. Copy your complete authenticated URL from your node’s Access and credentials. Mainnet uses chain ID 9745; testnet uses 9746. Both use XPL as the native currency. See the Plasma network settings.
Yes. Plasma supports Ethereum-compatible tooling, including MetaMask, ethers.js, web3.py, Hardhat, and Foundry. Use your Chainstack HTTPS endpoint and the matching chain ID. In MetaMask, use Connect wallet from your node’s access details, or add the network manually. Follow the Plasma tooling guide for configuration examples.
Call the USDT token contract’s balanceOf function with eth_call to read a token balance. Use eth_getLogs to retrieve historical Transfer events and WebSocket subscriptions for live contract logs. eth_getBalance returns native XPL, not USDT. Follow the Plasma USDT monitoring tutorial for contract details and examples.
No. Plasma’s zero-fee USDT transfer feature uses specific authorization-based payment routes; it does not make every ERC-20 transfer or smart contract call free. The official mainnet rollout initially limited these routes to Plasma’s own products. Standard transactions use XPL for gas. Check the current Plasma network fee documentation and zero-fee transfer rollout before designing a payment flow.
Yes. Chainstack Plasma nodes provide WebSocket endpoints alongside HTTPS JSON-RPC. Use subscriptions to receive new blocks and contract logs without repeated polling. For USDT payment monitoring, subscribe to the token contract’s Transfer events. See Plasma API documentation and the USDT monitoring guide.
Yes. Plasma archive access and Debug & Trace APIs are available from the Growth plan. Query historical balances and contract state, inspect internal calls, and diagnose reverted transactions with methods such as debug_traceTransaction. These features are not included in the free Developer plan. Check Plasma method availability and plan features.
Choose a Global Node for geo-balanced RPC access without managing infrastructure. Add Unlimited Node from the Growth plan for flat-fee access within a selected RPS tier. Choose Dedicated Nodes for isolated compute and storage, available from the Pro plan with infrastructure billed separately. Check current node configurations and pricing for available Plasma deployments.
Yes. Chainstack Self-Hosted supports Plasma mainnet and testnet in full-node mode, pairing Reth with a PlasmaBFT observer. Deploy on infrastructure you control with monitoring, automated updates, and self-healing operations. Follow the installation guide and check supported clients and protocols for current requirements.
Use the Chainstack Plasma faucet to request testnet XPL for gas, contract deployment, and application testing. Connect your wallet and application to Plasma Testnet with chain ID 9746. Testnet XPL has no monetary value and cannot pay fees on Plasma mainnet.
Connect your application to Chainstack’s Plasma HTTPS endpoint to read account balances, query token and contract state, estimate gas, and submit signed transactions. Standard methods include eth_getBalance, eth_call, eth_getLogs, eth_getTransactionReceipt, and eth_sendRawTransaction. Use WebSocket subscriptions for new blocks and contract logs. See the Plasma API reference for supported methods and request examples.
Plasma mainnet uses chain ID 9745; testnet uses 9746. Both use XPL as the native currency. eth_getBalance returns XPL in 18-decimal units; read USDT balances through the token contract’s balanceOf function with eth_call. Connect MetaMask, ethers.js, web3.py, Hardhat, or Foundry using the network settings in the Plasma tooling guide.
