  ```jsx ethers.js theme={"system"}
  const ethers = require('ethers');
  const NODE_URL = "YOUR_CHAINSTACK_ENDPOINT";
  const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider(NODE_URL);

  const isBlockConsolidated = async (blockNumber) => {

      // This will return a boolean value
      const isConsolidated = await provider.send("zkevm_isBlockConsolidated", [blockNumber]);
      console.log(`Is Block ${blockNumber} Consolidated: ${isConsolidated}`);
  };

  // Replace "0xd29e" with the desired block number in hexadecimal format
  isBlockConsolidated("0xd29e");
  ```

  ```python web3.py theme={"system"}
  from web3 import Web3
  node_url = "YOUR_CHAINSTACK_ENDPOINT"
  web3 = Web3(Web3.HTTPProvider(node_url))
  output = web3.provider.make_request('zkevm_isBlockConsolidated', ["0xd29e"])
  print(output)
