Hive API

healthy 3,466 Subscribers

Live data for the Hive blockchain social network, served straight from Hive's public JSON-RPC nodes — no key, no account, nothing cached. Hive is a decentralised blogging and social platform where posts and votes live on-chain and earn crypto rewards. The account endpoint resolves a username to its profile: display name, reputation score, follower and following counts, post count, bio, location, website and join date — @gtg ("Gandalf the Grey") has a 76 reputation and over ten thousand followers. The posts endpoint returns a user's blog posts with each post's up-vote count, the HBD payout it earned, the comment count, the tags and a link. The trending endpoint returns the platform's trending (or hot, new or top-paid) posts right now, optionally filtered by tag — the front page of Hive. This is the profile-posts-and-trends layer for any decentralised-social, blogging or web3 app. Live from the Hive blockchain, nothing stored. Distinct from other social and centralised-blog APIs — this is the on-chain Hive network. 4 endpoints.

Hive Witnesses & Consensus API — oanor API marketplace

Hive Witnesses & Consensus API

The Hive blockchain's delegated-proof-of-stake consensus — the witness election — live from the public Hive RPC nodes, no key, nothing cached. Hive is secured by 20 elected witnesses plus a rotating backup, voted in by HIVE holders with their staked (vested) weight; witnesses produce the blocks, publish the HBD price feed and set the chain parameters. The Hive content reader covers accounts, posts and communities, but not the witness consensus; this opens it. Rank the witnesses by vote weight, each with its vote total converted to HIVE Power, missed block count, running node version, published HBD price feed and the chain parameters it sets. Look up a single witness by account for its votes, rank and production. And read a live network overview — the head block, the current witness producing it, witness participation over the last 128 slots, the total vesting (staking) fund and the HIVE-per-MVESTS rate. The consensus-and-governance layer for Hive wallets, witness dashboards, voters and analytics. Live from api.hive.blog and peer nodes.

Hive Engine API — oanor API marketplace

Hive Engine API

Live data from the Hive-Engine smart-contract sidechain — a Layer-2 token registry and decentralized exchange built on the Hive blockchain. Look up any Hive-Engine token's on-chain registry record (issuer, precision, max / current / circulating supply, staking status and total staked), read its live DEX market metrics (last price in HIVE, highest bid, lowest ask, 24h volume and the day's price change), pull the richlist of its largest holders with their liquid balance, staked amount and delegations, and stream the most recent fills on its HIVE market (buyer, seller, quantity, price and time). Symbols are Hive-Engine tokens such as LEO, BEE, SWAP.HIVE or SPS; prices and market volume are denominated in HIVE, the base-chain coin. This is the token-sidechain / on-chain-DEX view — per-token supply, holders and an internal order-book market — distinct from the single-venue exchange tickers, the cross-exchange coin-markets and the base-chain on-chain APIs in the catalogue. Live and read straight from a public Hive-Engine RPC node — nothing stored.

Meter API — oanor API marketplace

Meter API

Live EVM on-chain data for Meter (chain id 82) — the HotStuff-BFT proof-of-stake Layer-1 whose native gas token is MTR — served directly from public EVM JSON-RPC nodes with multi-node failover. The status endpoint returns the chain and network id, the latest block height and the node client version. The block endpoint returns a block by number (or the latest) with its hash, parent hash, timestamp, transaction count, gas used and gas limit, miner and size. The gas endpoint returns the current gas price in both wei and gwei. The balance endpoint returns the MTR balance and outgoing transaction count for any address, converted from base wei (18 decimals) into whole MTR with exact big-integer scaling. Every figure is read live from the chain over JSON-RPC — nothing bundled or modelled — behind a short server-side cache with keep-warm so the feed stays fast and fresh. Ideal for explorers, wallet and dashboard tooling, gas trackers, address monitors and analytics apps across the Meter ecosystem. Live keyless upstream. 5 endpoints.

Songbird API — oanor API marketplace

Songbird API

Live EVM on-chain data for Songbird (chain id 19) — the canary network of the Flare blockchain, whose native token is SGB — served directly from public C-chain JSON-RPC nodes with multi-node failover. The status endpoint returns the chain and network id, the latest block height and the node client version. The block endpoint returns a block by number (or the latest) with its hash, parent hash, timestamp, transaction count, gas used and gas limit, miner and size. The gas endpoint returns the current gas price in both wei and gwei. The balance endpoint returns the SGB balance and outgoing transaction count for any address, converted from base wei (18 decimals) into whole SGB with exact big-integer scaling. Every figure is read live from the chain over JSON-RPC — nothing bundled or modelled — behind a short server-side cache with keep-warm so the feed stays fast and fresh.
