How this service works
Bitcoin network fee rates in sat/vB for next block, 30 minutes, 1 hour and economy, plus mempool size, block height and the cost of a typical payment. Use right before sending BTC.
Output
A JSON object containing fee rates in sat/vB for four urgency tiers (next block, ~30 minutes, ~1 hour, economy), current mempool size, latest block height, and the estimated cost in fiat/BTC of a typical payment transaction.
Example use cases
Pre-send fee check for Bitcoin wallet
“I'm about to send 0.05 BTC to a friend — what's the current sat/vB fee I should set to get it confirmed within the next block, and what would the total fee cost me?”
Timing a large BTC transfer cheaply
“I'm not in a rush to send this Bitcoin but want to minimize fees — what's the economy fee rate right now and how backed up is the mempool?”
Monitoring Bitcoin network congestion
“Keep an eye on Bitcoin network fees for me and let me know if the next-block fee rate drops below 20 sat/vB so I know it's a good time to send.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://bess-x402.onrender.com/v1/crypto/btc-fees?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint immediately before broadcasting a Bitcoin transaction when you need real-time, tiered fee recommendations across four urgency levels (next block through economy). Prefer it over generic crypto data APIs when you specifically need mempool depth and sat/vB estimates rather than price data. The bundled typical-payment cost figure is useful for user-facing fee previews without additional computation.
Side effects
- Upstream Bitcoin node or mempool data source is unavailable — returns 5xx error
- Stale data if mempool feed is delayed
- Rate limiting or payment failure on x402 if USDC balance insufficient
- No input parameters accepted; any query params are ignored silently
