The debug_* and trace_* namespaces give you opcode-level visibility into transaction execution. They’re used by block explorers, security tools, MEV searchers, and indexers that need internal-call data. Both namespaces are served from https://rpc.goldrushdata.com/v1/{chain}.

debug_* methods (Geth-style)

MethodSummaryRate
debug_traceTransactionStep-by-step EVM trace of a mined transaction.0.015
debug_traceCallTrace an eth_call without producing a transaction.0.015
debug_traceBlockByHashTrace every transaction in a block (by hash).0.015
debug_traceBlockByNumberTrace every transaction in a block (by number).0.015
All four accept a tracer config:
{
  "tracer": "callTracer",
  "tracerConfig": { "withLog": true },
  "timeout": "30s"
}
Common tracer values: callTracer (call graph), prestateTracer (state diff), 4byteTracer (4-byte selector frequency), or omit for the default opcode-level trace.

trace_* methods (Parity-style)

MethodSummaryRate
trace_transactionParity trace of a mined transaction.0.015
trace_blockParity traces of every transaction in a block.0.015
trace_filterParity traces matching a filter (sender, recipient, range).0.015
trace_callParity trace of an eth_call.0.015
trace_* is the canonical Erigon/Parity format. Prefer it when integrating with tooling that expects Erigon traces (e.g. block-explorer pipelines).

Per-chain availability

Trace and debug support depends on what the upstream node software exposes. Erigon and Reth both expose trace_* natively, while Geth-based upstreams expose debug_*. GoldRush surfaces whichever is available, and falls back to a normalized translation where one namespace is missing.

Pricing

debug_* and trace_* are heavier than standard eth_* reads. See pricing for full rates.
