--sync
Wait for transaction receipt synchronously instead of polling. Note:
uses `eth_sendTransactionSync` which may not be supported by all
clients

-k, --insecure
Allow insecure RPC connections (accept invalid HTTPS certificates).
When the provider's inner runtime transport variant is HTTP, this
configures the reqwest client to accept invalid certificates.
--no-proxy
Disable automatic proxy detection.
Use this in sandboxed environments (e.g., Cursor IDE sandbox, macOS
App Sandbox) where system proxy detection causes crashes. When
enabled, HTTP_PROXY/HTTPS_PROXY environment variables and system proxy
settings will be ignored.
--flashbots
Use the Flashbots RPC URL with fast mode
([https://rpc.flashbots.net/fast](https://rpc.flashbots.net/fast)).
This shares the transaction privately with all registered builders.

--jwt-secret <JWT_SECRET>
JWT Secret for the RPC endpoint.
The JWT secret will be used to create a JWT for a RPC. For example,
the following can be used to simulate a CL `engine_forkchoiceUpdated`
call:
cast rpc --jwt-secret <JWT_SECRET> engine_forkchoiceUpdatedV2
'["0x6bb38c26db65749ab6e472080a3d20a2f35776494e72016d1e339593f21c59bc",

If this is not set, the fee token is chosen according to network
rules. See the Tempo docs for more information.
--tempo.seq <SEQUENCE_KEY>
Nonce sequence key for Tempo transactions.
When set, builds a Tempo (type 0x76) transaction with the specified
nonce sequence key.
If this is not set, the protocol sequence key (0) will be used.

Display options:
--color <COLOR>
The color of the log messages
Possible values:
- auto: Intelligently guess whether to use color output (default)

-v, --verbosity...
Verbosity level of the log messages.
Pass multiple times to increase the verbosity (e.g. -v, -vv, -vvv).
Depending on the context the verbosity levels have different meanings.
For example, the verbosity levels of the EVM are:
- 2 (-vv): Print logs for all tests.
- 3 (-vvv): Print execution traces for failing tests.
- 4 (-vvvv): Print execution traces for all tests, and setup traces
for failing tests.
- 5 (-vvvvv): Print execution and setup traces for all tests,
including storage changes and
backtraces with line numbers.
