## TAC Network RPC Infrastructure

TAC offers full EVM compatibility through its Layer 1 blockchain. For reliable development and production environments, we've partnered with Ankr to provide enterprise-grade RPC infrastructure.

## Official Ankr RPC Endpoints

As our main RPC provider, Ankr delivers high-availability infrastructure specifically optimized for TAC Network:

| Type     | Network     | Endpoint                                                      |
| -------- | ----------- | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
| JSON-RPC | Mainnet     | [https://rpc.ankr.com/tac](https://rpc.ankr.com/tac)          |
| JSON-RPC | SPB Testnet | [https://rpc.ankr.com/tac\_spb](https://rpc.ankr.com/tac_spb) |

## Integration Steps

<Steps>
  <Step title="Choose Your Integration Method">
    The TAC Network supports multiple access methods:

    * EVM JSON-RPC: For standard Ethereum-compatible development
    * Tendermint: Direct access to the consensus layer
    * Cosmos REST/gRPC: For Cosmos SDK-based interactions
  </Step>

  <Step title="Configure Your Application">
    For EVM application integration using Ankr's RPC services:

    ```
    // Example configuration with ethers.js
    import { ethers } from 'ethers';

    // Connect via Ankr's RPC endpoint
    const provider = new ethers.providers.JsonRpcProvider('https://rpc.ankr.com/tac_spb');

    // Test connection
    async function checkConnection() {
      const blockNumber = await provider.getBlockNumber();
      console.log(`Connected to TAC network at block: ${blockNumber}`);
    }
    ```

    Or for deployment on TAC L1 using Foundry

    ```
    forge create --rpc-url https://rpc.ankr.com/tac_spb --private-key YOUR_PRIVATE_KEY_HERE YOUR_CONTRACT --legacy --broadcast
    ```
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Testing Your Integration

Before production deployment:

* Get testnet tokens from the [TAC Faucet](https://spb.faucet.tac.build)
* Test transactions through Ankr's RPC endpoints
* Monitor performance via the Explorer
