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.
