eth_getProof on HyperEVM
Returns the account and storage Merkle-Patricia proofs for an address — used by light clients and cross-chain bridges to verify state against a block's state root. A heavy method: needs a free API key.
The primitive behind trustless bridges and light clients: the returned proofs verify against a block's stateRoot with no trust in the RPC. Historical blocks need archive state, which is why it's key-gated.

eth_getProof on HyperEVM — FAQ
How do I call eth_getProof on HyperEVM?
POST a JSON-RPC 2.0 request with "method": "eth_getProof" to NodeFlare's HyperEVM endpoint at https://rpc.nodeflare.app/hl/v1/YOUR_KEY. This method requires a free API key — it is not available on the public endpoint.
What does eth_getProof cost on the free tier?
eth_getProof is weighted at 20 compute units per call. The free tier includes 2,000,000 CU/month, so that is roughly 100,000 eth_getProof calls per month — no credit card.
Is eth_getProof available on the public HyperEVM endpoint?
No. eth_getProof is a heavy method and requires a free API key. The public no-key endpoint serves standard read methods; create a free key to unlock eth_getProof, eth_getLogs, trace_* and debug_*.
Anything HyperEVM-specific to know when using eth_getProof?
The chain launched in February 2025, so state and history are compact — even deep-historical reads are fast compared to older chains.
