A place for developers to talk about building on Farcaster.

We need an EIP to expose the blockNumber at which a contract was deployed via a JSON-RPC method.

Any EVM dev who's built a multichain indexer knows how painful it is to manually track down start blocks for contracts.

Thirdweb insight offer a REST API to get that data. https://playground.thirdweb.com/insight/transactions?path=/v1/transactions/%7BcontractAddress%7D

Why serve it through RPC?

Co-Founder at sablier.com, and open-source developer. I have a broad range of interests, including longevity, epistemology, physics, and psychology.

So that these third-party developers don't have to provide custom solutions for some data that is needed by so many EVM devs
