Blocks

Blocks are the building blocks of blockchains and rollups.

A block contains transactions which will alter the state of an EVM system incrementally. Transaction within a block can only be executed one after the other, not in parallel.

Unique Key: number

Column Name	Description
number	The length of the chain, in blocks.
timestamp	The unix timestamp for when the block was collated.
hash	Unique identifier of a transaction.

nonce	The transaction nonce, unique to the wallet
sha3_uncles	An array of uncle hashes.
