Humanity Protocol is a zkEVM Layer-2 for decentralized identity that uses palm-biometric Proof-of-Humanity and zero-knowledge proofs to issue privacy-preserving, Sybil-resistant credentials.
Check out our Humanity API Quickstart guide to get started building on Humanity.
The Humanity API allows developers to interface with the Humanity mainnet. With this API, developers can execute transactions, query on-chain data, and interact with the Humanity network, relying on a JSON-RPC standard.
Yes, Humanity is EVM compatible.
Humanity uses the JSON-RPC API standard. This API is crucial for any blockchain interaction on the Humanity network, allowing users to read block/transaction data, query chain information, execute smart contracts, and store data on-chain.
Humanity supports standard Ethereum JSON-RPC methods. Some chain-specific methods may vary. Please check the Humanity API Endpoints for a complete list.
When accessing the Humanity network via a node provider like Alchemy, Humanity developers use an API key to send transactions and retrieve data from the network. For the best development experience, we recommend that you sign up for a free API key!
Common Ethereum libraries like ethers.js should be compatible with Humanity, given its EVM nature.
