How this service works
Read current gas price and base fee, live from Base mainnet, for a fraction of a cent. No API key, no account — a wallet is the only requirement, and you are charged only if the read succeeds. Plain unsigned data; the attested version of chain reads is /v1/oracle/onchain. Answers are read at the moment of the call and stamped with the block they came from where applicable.
Output
Returns the current gas price and base fee as read from Base mainnet at the moment of the call, stamped with the block number they were observed at. Data is unsigned plain JSON; for attested/signed reads use the /v1/oracle/onchain endpoint.

Endpoint
GEThttps://soren.com/v1/chain/gasWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, cheap, real-time gas price and base fee from Base mainnet without setting up an API key or account. Ideal for agents making transaction cost estimates, DeFi bots evaluating execution windows, or dashboards polling live fee data. If you need a cryptographically attested/signed result, use /v1/oracle/onchain instead.
