Fetch deployed EVM contract runtime bytecode and its Keccak-256 code hash to fin
Fetch deployed EVM contract runtime bytecode and its Keccak-256 code hash to fingerprint or compare contracts, or feed a disassembler. Supports Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, Optimism and Polygon, with optional historical block reads. Returns full hex code, byte size and isContract; an empty-code address returns 0x and a null hash. Key-free RPC with endpoint fallback; code capped at 256 KiB.
