About
In the decentralized economy, timing is financial strategy. Network fees (Gas) fluctuate wildly based on global demand, moving from cents to hundreds of dollars in minutes. This tool is engineered for high-volume traders, DeFi users, and casual holders who demand precision. It replaces guesswork with algorithmic cost prediction.
We solve the "Blind Sign" problem: users approving transactions without understanding the fiat impact or alternative network options. By aggregating real-time data from Layer-1 (Bitcoin, Ethereum) and scaling solutions (Arbitrum, Polygon, Optimism), we provide a comprehensive landscape of block space liquidity. Use this to optimize your entry points, avoid overpaying during congestion spikes, and discover cheaper execution paths.
Formulas
Cost estimation requires normalizing distinct fee markets into a unified fiat value. For EVM chains (Ethereum, L2s), we utilize the EIP-1559 fee model.
Where GasLimit represents the computational complexity (e.g., 21,000 for ETH transfer, 180,000 for Swap). Layer 2 costs include an additional L1 Data Availability scalar: FeeL2 = Execution + L1_Call_Data.
