eth

eth_getBlockByHash

Returns information about a block by its hash.

Parameters

#	Type	Description
1	`string`	The hash of the block (32 bytes).
2	`bool`	If `true`, returns full transaction objects; if `false`, returns only transaction hashes.

Returns

object | null -- A block object, or null if no block was found. The object contains the same fields as eth_getBlockByNumber:

Field	Type	Description
`number`	`string`	Block number (hex)
`hash`	`string`	Block hash (32 bytes)
`parentHash`	`string`	Hash of the parent block
`nonce`	`string`	Always `"0x0000000000000000"` on PoS
`sha3Uncles`	`string`	SHA3 of the uncles data
`logsBloom`	`string`	Bloom filter for the logs (256 bytes)
`transactionsRoot`	`string`	Root of the transaction trie
`stateRoot`	`string`	Root of the state trie
`receiptsRoot`	`string`	Root of the receipts trie
`miner`	`string`	Address of the block proposer
`difficulty`	`string`	Always `"0x0"` on PoS
`totalDifficulty`	`string`	Cumulative difficulty
`extraData`	`string`	Extra data field
`size`	`string`	Block size in bytes (hex)
`gasLimit`	`string`	Maximum gas allowed in the block (hex)
`gasUsed`	`string`	Total gas used by all transactions (hex)
`timestamp`	`string`	Unix timestamp of the block (hex)
`transactions`	`array`	Transaction hashes or full transaction objects
`uncles`	`array`	Always empty on PoS
`baseFeePerGas`	`string`	Base fee per gas (EIP-1559, hex)

Notes

This method is functionally identical to eth_getBlockByNumber but uses the block hash as the identifier instead of the block number.
Block hashes are unique identifiers and are preferred when you need to reference a specific block unambiguously, especially during chain reorganizations.
Returns null if no block with the given hash exists.
Set the second parameter to false for transaction hashes only (faster) or true for full transaction objects.
The example uses the hash of block 1.
