Getting Started

Bootnode is the complete blockchain infrastructure platform. One API key gives you access to every major blockchain, real-time data indexing, smart wallet abstraction, webhook streaming, and full infrastructure management.

Quick Start

Get your API key from the dashboard and make your first RPC call:

curl -X POST https://api.bootno.de/v1/rpc/ethereum/mainnet \
  -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "method": "eth_blockNumber",
    "params": [],
    "id": 1
  }'

Platform Overview

Bootnode provides six core product areas:

• Multi-chain RPC — JSON-RPC and WebSocket endpoints for 30+ chains
• Token & NFT APIs — Indexed ERC-20 balances, NFT metadata, transfer history
• Smart Wallets — ERC-4337 account abstraction with gas sponsorship
• Webhooks — Real-time event streaming for on-chain activity
• Fleet Management — Deploy and scale validator nodes across networks
• Infrastructure Services — Block explorers, bridges, DEXs, multisig wallets

SDKs

pip install bootnode

ZAP Protocol

For high-performance binary RPC, connect via the ZAP protocol:

from hanzo_zap import Client

async with Client.connect("zap://api.bootno.de:9999") as client:
    tools = await client.list_tools()
    result = await client.call_tool("rpc_call", {
        "chain": "ethereum",
        "method": "eth_blockNumber"
    })

Authentication

All API requests require authentication via API key or JWT token:

API keys are scoped to projects. Create keys in Dashboard > API & Development > API Keys.
