eth_gasPrice

eth_gasPrice JSON-RPC reference for MegaETH.

Summary

Returns the current gas price in wei. Under MegaETH's current fee policy, this method returns 0xf4240 (1,000,000 wei = 0.001 gwei).

The public MegaETH endpoint supports this method. The standard, node, and gateway layers below identify behavior that differs from a generic Ethereum endpoint.

Parameters

None.

Result

result Quantity

Gas price in wei.

Comparison with Ethereum Standard JSON-RPC

Ethereum Standard

The canonical Ethereum method uses the parameter and result contract documented above, including the stated null, false, or zero-value semantics where applicable.

MegaETH Node Behavior

The node's gas oracle reflects the active MegaETH fee policy. On Mainnet the observed value was 1,000,000 wei, or 0.001 gwei.

MegaETH Public Gateway

The gateway uses the simple read path and may cache the head-dependent result for 1 second. The captured Mainnet value was 1,000,000 wei, or 0.001 gwei.

Errors

The | Scope | column distinguishes method failures from gateway policy errors.

No method-specific errors were observed.
