Is there a RPC API equivalent of fetching my Ethereum balance by using CURL in the cli?

Question

Since metamask connects to a RPC server and passes in the eth address to make a api request. Is it possible to do the same functionality using CURL in the cli to do a basic balance inquiry of an ethereum address?

Answer 1

Yes it’s possible using Infura.

Just checking quick here, there’s a JSON RPC call you can make using curl.
