# minia2a Gas Time

> minia2a Gas Time is a paid API for AI agents from minia2a.uk, paid per call via x402, $0.1/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-15).

Returns the current gas price along with the current server or block timestamp for blockchain gas cost timing decisions.

## Facts

- Endpoint: GET https://minia2a.uk/x402/gas-time
- Price: $0.1/call
- Payment: x402
- Status: unknown
- Last checked: 2026-09-15

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability minia2a-gas-time-5685b5c0
```

Example prompt: What's the current gas price and timestamp right now so I can decide whether it's a good time to submit my Ethereum transaction?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need both gas price and a timestamp together in a single call, especially for transaction scheduling logic or audit logging. If you only need a gas price without time context, consider the sibling x402-gas endpoint instead.

## Known failure modes

- Upstream RPC node unavailable — service may return an error or stale data
- Rate limiting if the endpoint is called too frequently
- Returned gas values may lag real-time by a few seconds depending on node sync
- Malformed query parameters may return an error response

## How this service works

minia2a service: x402-gas-time

## Output

Returns the current blockchain gas price paired with a timestamp, giving the caller both the cost-per-unit for gas and the time context needed to evaluate whether conditions are favorable for submitting a transaction.
