+
+## What is Cronos?
+
+Cronos is a public, open-source, EVM-compatible blockchain launched by Crypto.com in 2021. Built with the Cosmos SDK and Ethermint, Cronos runs in parallel to the Crypto.org Chain and lets developers deploy Ethereum-based smart contracts and dApps with low fees and fast finality, using `$CRO` as its native gas token.
+
+## What is the Cronos API?
+
+The Cronos API lets you interact with the Cronos network through a set of JSON-RPC methods. It supports operations such as smart contract deployment, transaction processing, and data retrieval, so you can integrate Cronos functionality into your applications.
+
+## How can I get started using the Cronos API?
+
+For a step-by-step guide, check out the [Cronos API Quickstart](/docs/reference/cronos-api-quickstart).
+
+## Is Cronos EVM compatible?
+
+Yes, Cronos is EVM-compatible. You can deploy Ethereum-based smart contracts and applications on the Cronos network and reuse existing Ethereum development tools and workflows.
+
+## What API does Cronos use?
+
+Cronos uses the JSON-RPC API standard, the same standard used across the Ethereum ecosystem. This provides a familiar and efficient interface for blockchain interactions.
+
+## What is a Cronos API key?
+
+When you access the Cronos network through a node provider like Alchemy, you use an API key to send transactions and retrieve data. An API key ensures secure and authenticated access to the network.
+
+For the best development experience, we recommend that you [sign up for a free API key](https://dashboard.alchemy.com/signup).
+
+## Which libraries support Cronos?
+
+As an EVM-compatible chain, Cronos supports popular Ethereum libraries such as [viem](https://viem.sh/), [ethers.js](https://docs.ethers.org/), and [web3.js](https://web3js.readthedocs.io/). You can reuse existing tooling and knowledge when building on Cronos.
+
+## What programming languages work with Cronos?
+
+Cronos supports Solidity for smart contract development due to its EVM compatibility. For offchain interactions, you can use JavaScript, TypeScript, or other common web development languages.
+
+## What does Cronos use for gas?
+
+Cronos uses `$CRO` as its native gas token. You need `$CRO` to pay for transaction fees on the network.
+
+## What methods does Alchemy support for the Cronos API?
+
+You can find the full list of methods supported by Alchemy for the Cronos API on the [Cronos API Endpoints](/docs/chains#cronos-apis) page.
+
+## My question isn't here, where can I get help?
+
+If you have any questions or feedback, contact us at support@alchemy.com or open a ticket in the [Alchemy Dashboard](https://dashboard.alchemy.com).

+
+Cronos is a public, open-source, EVM-compatible blockchain launched by Crypto.com in 2021. Built with the Cosmos SDK and Ethermint, Cronos aims to deliver low fees, fast finality, and full compatibility with Ethereum tooling, using `$CRO` as its native gas token.
+
+The Cronos API lets you interact with the Cronos network through a set of JSON-RPC methods. If you have worked with Ethereum's JSON-RPC APIs, the interface will feel familiar.
+
+## Send your first request on Alchemy
+
+Let's use the [`viem`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/viem) package to create a Cronos client connected to Alchemy and fetch the latest block number.
+
+<CodeGroup>
+  ```text npm
+  npm install --save viem
+  ```
+
+  ```text yarn
+  yarn add viem
+  ```
+</CodeGroup>
+
+## Create a client connected to Alchemy
+
+<CodeGroup>
+```js
+import { createPublicClient, http } from "viem";
+import { cronos } from "viem/chains";
+
+const client = createPublicClient({
+  chain: cronos,
+  transport: http("https://cronos-mainnet.g.alchemy.com/v2/YOUR_ALCHEMY_API_KEY"),
+});
+```
+</CodeGroup>
+
+Now that you've created a client connected to Alchemy, you can continue with some basics:
+
+## Get the latest block number
+
+<CodeGroup>
+```js
+const blockNumber = await client.getBlockNumber();
+console.log("Current block number:", blockNumber);
+```
+</CodeGroup>
+
+## Get an address balance
+
+<CodeGroup>
+```js
+const balance = await client.getBalance({ address: "0xab5801a7d398351b8be11c439e05c5b3259aec9b" });
+console.log("Balance (CRO):", Number(balance) / 1e18);
+```
+</CodeGroup>
+
+## Read block data
+
+<CodeGroup>
+```js
+const block = await client.getBlock({
+  blockNumber: blockNumber, // from previous example
+});
+console.log(block);
+```
+</CodeGroup>
+
+## Fetch a transaction by hash
+
+<CodeGroup>
+```js
+const tx = await client.getTransaction({ hash: "0xYOUR_TX_HASH" });
+console.log(tx);
+```
+</CodeGroup>
+
+## Fetch a transaction receipt
+
+<CodeGroup>
+```js
+const receipt = await client.getTransactionReceipt({
+  hash: "0xYOUR_TX_HASH"
+});
+console.log(receipt);
+```
+</CodeGroup>
