F.A.Q.

A BNB Smart Chain RPC node is a server that provides access to the BSC blockchain via JSON-RPC API. GetBlock's BSC nodes let you read blockchain data, submit transactions, and interact with smart contracts without running your own validator — with industry-lowest latency and 99.99% uptime SLA.
BSC is EVM-compatible (same Solidity contracts and eth_ RPC methods) but uses Proof of Staked Authority (PoSA) consensus with 21 validators for higher throughput (~3s blocks, 2000+ TPS) and lower gas fees. BSC Mainnet runs on Chain ID 56.
PoSA is BSC's hybrid consensus mechanism combining Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) and Proof of Authority (PoA). 21 active validators are elected based on staked BNB, enabling high throughput and short block times while maintaining decentralization at scale.
MEV (Maximal Extractable Value) refers to profits validators can extract by reordering, inserting, or censoring transactions. GetBlock's MEV-protected execution routes your transactions privately to builders, ensuring fair and predictable outcomes — critical for DeFi, DEX trading, and HFT on BSC's high-volume network.
GetBlock achieves 23ms average latency in Montreal (North America) and under 130ms globally for the eth_getBalance method — the fastest among major BSC providers including Alchemy (71ms), Chainstack (48ms), and dRPC (44ms), according to CompareNodes Q4 2025 benchmarks.
All EVM-compatible wallets support BSC through GetBlock: MetaMask, WalletConnect, Rainbow, Coinbase Wallet, Trust Wallet, and hardware wallets. Add BSC Mainnet (Chain ID: 56) or Testnet (Chain ID: 97) using your GetBlock endpoint URL in the custom RPC settings.
BSC Mainnet uses Chain ID 56 (0x38 in hex). BSC Testnet uses Chain ID 97 (0x61 in hex). Both networks are available on GetBlock with identical API — switch by using the respective endpoint URL.
BSC supports all standard Ethereum JSON-RPC methods (eth_*, net_*, web3_*) since it's EVM-compatible. Archive nodes on GetBlock additionally support trace_* and debug_* methods for transaction replay and deep state inspection — essential for analytics, MEV research, and DeFi protocol development.
