​
Overview

The Bank precompile provides ERC20-style access to native Cosmos SDK tokens, enabling smart contracts to query balances and token supplies through standardized interfaces. It serves as a Solidity wrapper around the Cosmos SDK x/bank module. Address: 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000804 Related Module: x/bank

Primary Methods

​
balances

Signature: balances(address account) → Balance[] memory Description: Queries all native token balances for a specific account address and returns an array of Balance (ERC-20 contract address & amount) structures. 
import { ethers } from "ethers";

// Connect to the network
const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider("<RPC_URL>");

// Precompile address and ABI
const precompileAddress = "0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000804";
const precompileAbi = [
  "function balances(address account) view returns (tuple(address contractAddress, uint256 amount)[])"
];

// Create a contract instance
const contract = new ethers.Contract(precompileAddress, precompileAbi, provider);

// Address to query
const accountAddress = "0xd8dA6BF26964aF9D7eEd9e03E53415D37aA96045"; // Placeholder

async function getBalances() {
  try {
    const balances = await contract.balances(accountAddress);
    console.log("Balances:", balances);
  } catch (error) {
    console.error("Error fetching balances:", error);
  }
}

getBalances();
Parameters:
  • account (address): The account address to query balances for
Returns: Array of Balance structures with contractAddress and amount fields

​
totalSupply

Signature: totalSupply() → Balance[] memory Description: Queries the total supply of all native tokens in the system. Returns comprehensive supply information for every token registered in the system. 
import { ethers } from "ethers";

// Connect to the network
const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider("<RPC_URL>");

// Precompile address and ABI
const precompileAddress = "0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000804";
const precompileAbi = [
  "function totalSupply() view returns (tuple(address contractAddress, uint256 amount)[])"
];

// Create a contract instance
const contract = new ethers.Contract(precompileAddress, precompileAbi, provider);

async function getTotalSupply() {
  try {
    const supply = await contract.totalSupply();
    console.log("Total Supply:", supply);
  } catch (error) {
    console.error("Error fetching total supply:", error);
  }
}

getTotalSupply();
Parameters: None Returns: Array of Balance structures showing total supply for each token

​
supplyOf

Signature: supplyOf(address erc20Address) → uint256 Description: Queries the total supply of a specific token by providing its ERC20 contract address. More efficient when you need supply information for a single token. 
import { ethers } from "ethers";

// Connect to the network
const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider("<RPC_URL>");

// Precompile address and ABI
const precompileAddress = "0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000804";
const precompileAbi = [
  "function supplyOf(address erc20Address) view returns (uint256)"
];

// Create a contract instance
const contract = new ethers.Contract(precompileAddress, precompileAbi, provider);

// ERC20 address to query
const erc20Address = "0xdAC17F958D2ee523a2206206994597C13D831ec7"; // Placeholder for a token contract

async function getSupplyOf() {
  try {
    const supply = await contract.supplyOf(erc20Address);
    console.log("Supply of", erc20Address, ":", supply.toString());
  } catch (error) {
    console.error("Error fetching supply:", error);
  }
}

getSupplyOf();
Parameters:
  • erc20Address (address): The ERC20 contract address of the token
Returns: Total supply of the specified token as uint256

​
Data Structures ->

​
Balance

The Balance struct represents a token balance with its associated ERC20 contract address:
  • contractAddress (address): The ERC20 contract address representing the native token
  • amount (uint256): Token amount in the smallest denomination
