# Vextorium EVM Chain Stats

> Vextorium EVM Chain Stats is a paid API for AI agents from api.vextorium.com, paid per call via x402, $0.002/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-19).

Returns real-time blockchain statistics for a specified EVM network, including transaction counts, block data, gas prices, and native token market data.

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 vextorium-evm-chain-stats-7f62f86d -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What are the current gas prices, network utilization, and native token price for Base right now?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a comprehensive, single-call snapshot of an EVM chain's health and market data — covering gas, block metrics, token price, and utilization simultaneously. It covers six major EVM networks (Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, zkSync) and is ideal for dashboards, pre-transaction gas checks, or any workflow that needs on-chain and market data in one call rather than aggregating multiple sources.

## Known failure modes

- Unsupported network value returns a validation error — only ethereum, base, arbitrum, optimism, polygon, and zksync are accepted
- Missing or malformed 'network' field in body causes a request error
- Upstream Blockscout data source unavailability may result in null fields or stale data
- Network outages or RPC issues may cause partial or empty responses

## How this service works

558 pay-per-call data APIs for AI agents: Solana and EVM on-chain data, tokenized stocks, DeFi, Hyperliquid, economy and official statistics, FX, validation, web and developer tools. Pay in USDC via x402.

## Output

A JSON object with the queried network name, data source attribution (e.g. Blockscout), total blocks, total addresses, total transactions, today's transaction count, average block time in seconds, gas prices in Gwei (slow, average, fast), network utilization percentage, native token price in USD, and market cap in USD.
