How this service works
Current gas conditions on Base, read live from a public node: gas price, base fee of the latest block, suggested priority fee, latest block number and timestamp. No parameters. No third-party API, no cache.
Output
A JSON object containing current Base network gas metrics read live from a public node: gas price (in wei or gwei), base fee of the latest block, suggested priority fee (tip), latest block number, and latest block timestamp. No caching — values reflect chain state at request time.
Example use cases
Pre-transaction gas cost check
“Before I send this USDC transfer on Base, can you tell me what the current gas price and base fee are so I know how much it'll cost?”
Gas spike monitoring for DeFi bot
“Check the live gas conditions on Base right now — I need the base fee and priority fee to decide whether to trigger my arbitrage trade.”
Block freshness verification
“What is the latest block number on Base and when was it mined? I want to confirm the node data is fresh before I rely on it.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://oraclepost.higgsfield.app/api/premium/gasWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need trustless, real-time gas data read directly from a Base public node with no third-party oracle or cache in the path. Ideal for pre-transaction cost estimation, DeFi automation bots, and gas monitoring dashboards on Base specifically. Prefer over generic gas APIs when on-chain provenance and zero-cache freshness matter.
Side effects
- Public node unreachable or rate-limited — may return a 5xx error
- Network congestion causing delayed node response
- Stale block data if node is temporarily behind chain tip
- x402 payment failure if USDC balance is insufficient for the $0.02 fee
