Gas fees aren’t just a cost—they’re the invisible gatekeeper of Web3.
If we can open that gate, we can super-charge every wallet, protocol, and rollup on Ethereum and beyond.
🧵
Gas fees constrain demand, they don’t create it.
Academic work puts on-chain price elasticity at -1.11: every 1 % fee cut sparks ~1.11 % more transactions. Small tweaks → big waves.
Scale that across Ethereum + L2s and a modest 20% efficiency gain = 22 % more baseline volume.
Default RPCs are leaving 💰 on the table.
We’ve seen popular providers over-estimate gas by >10× on certain L2s. Users overpay, some txs never fire, and liquidity just… evaporates.
This isn’t just about “lower gas.”
It’s about unlocking latent demand—keeping trades alive when fees spike and keeping blockspace full when they drop.
More accurate gas = higher TVL, tighter spreads, happier users.
Good fee data is a public good the whole ecosystem compounds on.
That’s why we’re building @GasNetwork ⛽—precision gas oracles that turn today’s silent tax into tomorrow’s growth engine.

Why it matters
Onchain actors spent >$5 billion on gas fees alone last year, yet wallets consistently overshoot estimates and thus waste $$$ on gas.
Gas Network turns these inefficiencies into onchain opportunities for regular crypto users via our new gamified public good.

The mission
Every time you update an oracle you shrink the “gap” between offchain and onchain gas prices.
Smaller gap → fewer failed transactions → cheaper blockchain for all!

Right now, gas fee markets often run via social consensus - and have no onchain source of truth.
In our latest blog post, we examine how @BNBCHAIN’s recent offchain fee market upgrade - and how @gasdotnetwork is working to make gas rules discoverable by code, not luck.

Freedom to transact shapes how we associate - and DAOs are a natively on-chain way of being, and building, in community.
We’re proud to co-sign @UniswapFND’s call for the U.S. Treasury Department and IRS to provide legal pathways for DAOs.
DAOs are reshaping how communities organize and innovate, with global reach and meaningful economic impact
Yet many DAOs lack access to basic legal infrastructure
It’s time to change that

ETH? Moving.
ETH gas? Not too bad: 0.763 gwei
Gas price is about network congestion. Whether there's a volatility spike, a DeFi stampede, or a coveted NFT mint, gas price matters.

Today, there is no standard method for sharing gas fee estimation and prediction, making gas markets disorganized and inefficient.
Gas Network is building a low-latency protocol for the real-time exchange of verifiable gas data. Today, the Gas Network supports @Ethereum, @Base, @Optimism Mainnet, @Arbitrum One, @zkSync Era, @LineaBuild, @Blast, @0xPolygon, @0xSonicLabs, and @SeiNetwork — with more to come.

Ethereum mainnet gas spiked yesterday - 82.2 gwei at its highest - while most L2 transaction fees remained low.
Why? Major token action - the WLFI airdrop spiked a DeFi-summer level of activity as people rushed to claim, trade and sell.

Tired of gas price guesswork? ⛽
Blocknative’s browser extension delivers AI-powered, multichain gas estimates in real time - and was recently featured in a great writeup by @heybeluga:
...Enter Gas Network, a specialized oracle built for gas optimization. It pulls real-time pricing directly onchain, cutting out overpayments and inaccurate estimates.
Highly recommend to check out their Gas Extension for real-time alerts in the Chrome Web Store. 👇

When Ethereum launched, its fees were only 0.1% of the total - with Bitcoin fees at 99%. In 2022, Ethereum fees were at 82.2%. In January 2025, they made up one-third, with Bitcoin fees only 7.5% of the total.
