Tea Chain is an EVM-compatible Layer-2 built on Optimism’s OP Stack that powers the Tea Protocol’s on-chain registry and rewards for open-source software.
Check out our Tea API Quickstart guide to get started building on Tea.
The Tea API allows developers to interface with the Tea mainnet. With this API, developers can execute transactions, query on-chain data, and interact with the Tea network, relying on a JSON-RPC standard.
Yes, Tea is EVM compatible.
Tea uses the JSON-RPC API standard. This API is crucial for any blockchain interaction on the Tea network, allowing users to read block/transaction data, query chain information, execute smart contracts, and store data on-chain.
Tea supports standard Ethereum JSON-RPC methods. Some chain-specific methods may vary. Please check the Tea API Endpoints for a complete list.
When accessing the Tea network via a node provider like Alchemy, Tea 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 Tea, given its EVM nature.
