Alloy is a high-performance Rust library for connecting applications to Ethereum and EVM-based blockchains, providing transports, providers, middleware, signers, and network abstractions. It is a ground-up rewrite of ethers-rs featuring the sol! macro for contract bindings, multicall support, and a composable provider architecture.

Use cases

  • connect to an ethereum node from rust
  • send transactions on evm chains
  • read smart contract state in rust
  • interact with erc20 tokens programmatically
  • build a rust web3 backend
  • query blockchain data via rpc
  • sign and broadcast ethereum transactions
  • support multiple evm networks in one app

When to choose

  • you are building a Rust application that talks to Ethereum or any EVM chain
  • you want a modern, actively maintained replacement for ethers-rs
  • you need high-performance ABI encoding and U256 primitives
  • you want composable providers with middleware layers and multicall support

When to avoid

  • your project is in another language like JavaScript, Python, or Go
  • you need non-EVM blockchains like Bitcoin or Solana
  • you only need a quick one-off script where a CLI tool suffices
