# Saylor Innovations EVM Network Status — BSC

> Saylor Innovations EVM Network Status — BSC is a paid API for AI agents from saylorinnovations.com, paid per call via x402, $0.001/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-02).

Returns current network status for BNB Smart Chain (BSC), including latest block number, block age, gas price, and base fee in gwei

## Facts

- Endpoint: GET https://saylorinnovations.com/api/evm/bsc/network?utm_source=zero.xyz
- Price: $0.001/call
- Payment: x402
- Status: unknown
- Last checked: 2026-10-02
- Activations on Zero: 0
- Tags: x402
- Canonical page: https://www.zero.xyz/c/saylor-innovations-evm-network-status-bsc-26501f41
- Structured record (JSON): https://api.zero.xyz/v1/capabilities/cap_z7Z2Gf3vLRbo8w8N9Es8i

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 saylor-innovations-evm-network-status-bsc-26501f41
```

Example prompt: What's the current gas price and latest block number on BNB Smart Chain right now?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you specifically need real-time network status for BNB Smart Chain (BSC) — block height, gas pricing, and chain health — rather than Ethereum mainnet, Base, or Arbitrum equivalents. Prefer this over generic blockchain explorers when you need a lightweight, pay-per-call JSON response without API key management. Choose sibling endpoints on saylorinnovations.com for other EVM chains (Arbitrum, Ethereum, Base).

## Known failure modes

- Network unreachable: block, chain_id, gas_price_gwei, base_fee_gwei, block_age_seconds may all return null
- RPC node outage: stale or null block data returned
- Rate limit or payment failure: 402 response if USDC micropayment not processed
- Incorrect chain targeted: user confuses BSC with Ethereum mainnet or Arbitrum

## How this service works

EVM Network Status (bsc) — On-Chain Data

## Output

A JSON object containing the chain name (e.g. 'bsc'), numeric chain ID, latest block number, block age in seconds, current gas price in gwei, and base fee in gwei — any field may be null if the network is unreachable.
