Gas Network Now Supports Solana

Exciting news! As part of a major step forward for its multichain support, Blocknative’s Gas Network is now expanding to Solana. As of today, developers can access real-time fee data for the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) through our Gas API and Gas Extension.

Hidden Hands Behind Gas Markets: Why Core Parameters Belong Onchain

Blocknative — Thu, 31 Jul 2025 10:28:56 GMT

Upgrades to a fee market can impact settlement on the underlying network or protocol. And fee markets can be changed via offchain social consensus rather than via explicit onchain code. This reliance on informal agreements creates unpredictable ‘hidden fee floors’ and challenges assumptions around programmatic sources of truth. This lack of a definitive onchain truth for how gas markets operate in the real-world hinders orderly network operation and creates information asymmetries related to settlement.

RIGID: Enabling a Composable, Gas-aware, Interoperable Ecosystem

As Ethereum scales through rollups, one challenge has become clear: every rollup has its own way of pricing gas. Some use calldata, some use blobs, others rely on proof costs or computation complexity. This diversity makes it hard for wallets, protocols, and relayers to reason about costs - let alone optimize them.

How overspending on gas throttles demand—and what accurate fee oracles unlock.

Blocknative — Thu, 22 May 2025 13:15:47 GMT

For most blockspace users, gas prices are more than just a fee—they’re a gatekeeper. And beyond that, most users don’t even know how much they’re constrained by this invisible gate.

Gas Network Tutorial - Getting Started

Blocknative — Mon, 05 May 2025 20:15:00 GMT

Introduction

Gas prices fluctuate constantly, and onchain contracts often need those prices to make decisions or to expose up‑to‑date information to apps. Gas Network solves this by delivering signed, accurate gas estimates for many chains directly on‑chain via its Oracle.

TL;DR on Gas Network ⛽

Blocknative — Tue, 15 Apr 2025 14:55:56 GMT

Gas Network is a decentralized oracle network that brings gas prices onchain—securely, transparently, and efficiently. We're building the foundation for a better, more interoperable Ethereum ecosystem, one gas price at a time.

The Gas Network Community Dashboard

A Cross Chain Fee Analysis Tool

The blockchain ecosystem has grown increasingly complex, with multiple networks operating in parallel. But one thing that ties every blockchain together are fee markets - which represent actual demand for blockspace.

For users, developers, and researchers looking to understand the crypto fee landscape, the Gas Network Community Dashboard offers a comprehensive look into the often unclear world of blockchain transaction costs.
