# Saylor Innovations EVM Block Lookup (BSC Latest)

> Saylor Innovations EVM Block Lookup (BSC Latest) is a paid API for AI agents from saylorinnovations.com, paid per call via x402, $0.002/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-02).

Returns the latest block data from the BNB Smart Chain (BSC), including block number, hash, timestamp, miner, gas metrics, and transaction count.

## 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 saylor-innovations-evm-block-lookup-bsc-latest-69601b0a
```

Example prompt: What's the latest block on BNB Smart Chain right now — give me the block number, hash, timestamp, and how many transactions it included?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need real-time latest-block data specifically from BNB Smart Chain (BSC) and want a simple paid-per-call REST API without managing your own BSC RPC node. Prefer this over raw RPC calls when you want a normalized JSON response with gwei-converted fees and human-readable timestamps. Choose the Arbitrum or Ethereum variants for those chains instead.

## Known failure modes

- RPC node unavailability causing null block fields
- Payment failure (402) if x402 USDC payment not provided
- Network congestion causing stale block data
- Rate limiting if called too frequently
- Invalid or missing HTTP method causing 400 error

## How this service works

EVM Block (bsc). BNB Chain (BSC) block by number or latest: hash, parent hash, timestamp, transaction count and hashes, gas used and limit, base fee and validator (miner) address. Use it for block explorers, confirmations and timing checks.

## Output

A JSON object containing: chain name (e.g. 'bsc'), block number, block hash, miner address, gas used, gas limit, transaction count, Unix timestamp, human-readable time, and base fee in gwei. All numeric fields may be null if unavailable.
