eth_getBlockReceipts - Astar RPC Method
Return every transaction receipt in a block on Astar. Useful for indexers, analytics pipelines, and event backfills across cross-chain DeFi, multi-VM smart contracts, and XCM-enabled interoperability with Ethereum and Cosmos.
Returns all transaction receipts for a block on Astar. This is more efficient than calling eth_getTransactionReceipt once per transaction when you already know the target block.
Why Astar? Build on Polkadot's leading dApp hub supporting EVM, WASM, and upcoming PolkaVM environments with EVM + WASM + PolkaVM support, Build2Earn developer rewards, dApp Staking, and Soneium cross-layer integration.
When to Use This Method
eth_getBlockReceipts is useful for multi-chain dApp developers, DeFi builders, and teams leveraging Polkadot + Ethereum ecosystems:
- Indexer Backfills — Pull every receipt in a block with one request instead of looping over transaction hashes
- Event Collection — Scan all logs emitted by a block when building analytics or data pipelines
- Settlement Auditing — Verify every transaction outcome in a target block for cross-chain DeFi, multi-VM smart contracts, and XCM-enabled interoperability with Ethereum and Cosmos
- Operational Debugging — Compare receipt-level gas usage, status, and logs across multiple transactions at once
