Web3 Integration

const { ethers } = require('ethers');

const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider('https://go.getblock.io/<ACCESS-TOKEN>/');

async function getNonce() {
    const nonce = await provider.getTransactionCount('0x742d35Cc6634C0532925a3b844Bc9e7595f5bE21');
    console.log('Nonce:', nonce);
}

getNonce();

import { createPublicClient, http } from "viem";
import { hyperEvm } from "viem/chains";

// Create Viem client with GetBlock
const client = createPublicClient({
  chain: hyperEvm,
  transport: http(import.meta.env.HYPER_ACCESS_TOKEN),
});

// Using the method through Viem
async function Call() {
  try {
    // Method-specific Viem implementation
    const result = await client.request({
      method: "eth_getTransactionCount",
    params: ["0x742d35Cc6634C0532925a3b844Bc9e7595f5bE21", "latest"],
    });
    return result;
  } catch (error) {
    console.error("Viem Error:", error);
    throw error;
