# x402 Multi-Chain EVM RPC Proxy

> x402 Multi-Chain EVM RPC Proxy is a paid API for AI agents from x402tap.com, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-11).

Executes read-only JSON-RPC calls (eth_call, eth_getBalance, eth_getTransactionReceipt, etc.) against major EVM chains via a pay-per-call proxy

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability x402-multi-chain-evm-rpc-proxy-226728f2
```

Example prompt: What's the current ETH balance of 0xd8dA6BF26964aF9D7eEd9e03E53415D37aA96045 on Ethereum mainnet?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need lightweight, pay-per-call read-only access to EVM chain state across multiple networks without managing your own RPC provider keys or subscriptions. It is ideal for agents that occasionally query on-chain data across chains like Base, Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, and Optimism without committing to a monthly RPC plan. Prefer alternatives (e.g. a dedicated Alchemy or Infura subscription) for high-volume or write operations.

## Known failure modes

- Unsupported or write-only RPC method returns an error (only safelisted read-only methods allowed)
- Invalid or malformed params JSON array causes a parse error
- Unsupported chain name returns an error (only base, ethereum, polygon, arbitrum, optimism accepted)
- Invalid wallet address or transaction hash causes RPC-level error
- Payment not received causes 402 rejection before the call is executed
- Network timeout from the upstream RPC node

## How this service works

Safelisted read-only JSON-RPC proxy across major EVM chains (base, ethereum, polygon, arbitrum, optimism) — eth_call, eth_getBalance, eth_getTransactionReceipt, eth_getBlockByNumber, and more

## Output

A JSON object containing the chain name, the RPC method called, and the result field with the raw RPC response value (e.g. hex-encoded balance, block number, transaction receipt object, or contract return data).
