- Connect a node or wallet to the RPC listed on /network.
- Compare
eth_chainId. It should return 0x57c.
- Compare
eth_getBlockByNumber for block 316001 (hex 0x4d1b1) against the hash on /network.
- Compare a recent block hash from the stats page against the same height on that RPC.
- Check payouts on the explorer by opening the pool wallets on /payouts.
If those hashes do not match the history you intend to follow, do not point your miner here.
Example curls
curl -s https://rpc.west.bdag-us.org -H 'content-type: application/json' -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"eth_chainId","params":[]}'
curl -s https://rpc.west.bdag-us.org -H 'content-type: application/json' -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"eth_getBlockByNumber","params":["0x4d1b1", false]}'
Swap in any of the RPCs on /network — West, East, Brazil, or England all answer the same way if they're following the same history this pool does.
