# eth_syncing | Hyperliquid EVM

> Returns the synchronization status of the node. On Hyperliquid, this method always returns false as nodes are always considered synchronized.

<Info>
  This method is available on Chainstack. Not all Hyperliquid methods are available on Chainstack, as the open-source node implementation does not support them yet — see [Hyperliquid methods](/docs/hyperliquid-methods) for the full availability breakdown.
</Info>

Returns the synchronization status of the node. On Hyperliquid, this method always returns `false` as nodes are always considered synchronized.

## Parameters

This method takes no parameters.

## Returns

Returns the synchronization status. On Hyperliquid, this is always `false`, indicating the node is fully synchronized.

<Note>
  On Hyperliquid, this method always returns `false`. The network architecture ensures nodes are always synchronized, so there's no syncing state.
</Note>

## cURL example

```bash theme={"system"}
curl -X POST \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_syncing","params":[],"id":1}' \
  https://hyperliquid-mainnet.core.chainstack.com/4f8d8f4040bdacd1577bff8058438274/evm
```

Example response:

```json theme={"system"}
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"result":false}
```

## Use cases

* **EVM compatibility** — Maintain compatibility with standard Ethereum JSON-RPC interface
* **Application initialization** — Check node readiness (always ready on Hyperliquid)
* **Health monitoring** — Verify node status in monitoring systems
* **Cross-chain compatibility** — Support applications that check sync status across different networks
