Dash (DASH) API Documentation

Dash

Dash (DASH) is a payments blockchain secured by X11 proof of work and supplemented by a masternode layer that provides ChainLocks, InstantSend, and other network services; it originally launched as Xcoin in January 2014. Transactions use a Bitcoin-derived script and UTXO model, while full nodes validate blocks and transactions and maintain the blockchain, UTXO set, mempool, and protocol-specific masternode data. This Bitcoin-derived structure keeps blocks, transactions, outputs, addresses, and mempool operations familiar while adding Dash-specific consensus and service-layer objects.

Dash API Methods and Endpoints

NOWNodes exposes Dash's interface, plus a few others, depending on what your integration needs: JSON-RPC for reading chain state and broadcasting transactions, WSS (WebSocket) for real-time subscriptions and events, and Blockbook for indexed address, balance, transaction, and block lookups. Archive mode extends any of these to historical states and data beyond standard retention.

Browse the interfaces below for endpoint details, request parameters, response formats, and integration examples. Create an API key, select Mainnet or Testnet, choose the required interface, and start sending requests from your application.
