eth_getStorageAt on Cronos

Reads a raw 32-byte storage slot from a contract at a given block. Used to inspect state that isn't exposed by a public getter.

Slot layout is compiler- and version-specific, and proxies keep their logic's state elsewhere — compute mapping/array slots carefully. Prefer eth_call whenever a public getter exists.

Accounts & state on Cronos

Cronos runs the EVM inside a Cosmos-SDK chain (Ethermint lineage). At the JSON-RPC layer everything behaves as standard EVM; Cosmos-side accounts map 1:1 to EVM addresses.

Parameters

[address, slot, blockNumber|tag]

cURL

curl https://rpc.nodeflare.app/cronos/public \
  -X POST \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \

The example targets the USDC contract on Cronos — you can run it as-is.

ethers.js

import { ethers } from 'ethers';

const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider(
  'https://rpc.nodeflare.app/cronos/public'
