ETHGas

ETHGas is an Ethereum blockspace exchange that turns Ethereum blockspace into a tradable commodity, enabling instant transactions through preconfirmations (execution and inclusion preconfs), whole-block commitments, and base-fee futures. Its public developer platform exposes a v1 REST API and a WebSocket streaming API for market data, order placement and management, funding (collateral deposits and withdrawals), and validator/builder registration. Authentication uses an EIP-712 wallet-signature login that issues a short-lived JWT bearer token; public market-data endpoints under /api/v1/p require none. ETHGas runs on Ethereum mainnet with a Hoodi testnet environment, and backs the exchange with a Commit-Boost validator module and a modified rbuilder block builder. ETHGas is backed by Polychain.

ETHGas publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Infrastructure, Blockchain, Ethereum, and Trading.

The ETHGas catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.

ETHGas’ developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, engineering blog, support, signup flow, authentication, and 17 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Securities & Market Data regime (on an ambiguous tag, where no other regime matched), so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/ethgas: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you? Prioritized profiling — $2,500 →
