Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.x402node.dev/chain/base-gasWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when an agent needs real-time Base L2 gas prices without setting up its own RPC connection or API key, especially when pricing x402 micropayment settlements, Base swaps, or L2 smart contract deployments. Prefer over Ethereum mainnet gas endpoints when the target chain is specifically Base L2.

- LlamaRPC upstream unavailability returns an error or timeout
- Network congestion may cause momentarily stale or delayed gas price readings
- Invalid or malformed POST body may return a 400 error
- x402 payment failure (insufficient USDC balance) results in 402 Payment Required before data is returned
