Transaction Simulation can unlock profit potential for traders and can help protocols intercept malicious transactions before they get confirmed on-chain. Today, transaction simulation is used by sophisticated, well-financed trading operations to help them see into the future. Like gas prices, slippage, confirmation order, and more, Transaction Simulation is rooted in the mempool. Simulation reveals all of the internal calls that execute inside a transaction. While these internal transactions...

Every transaction is impacted by the price of ETH gas. This fundamental building block has long been a source of anxiety for both new and experienced Ethereum users. Underpaying for gas leads to missed trades, stuck web3 wallets, and more. While overpaying for gas erodes profitability. And, as we have previously explored, the price of gas is driven by mempool competition. To help builders and traders accurately price transaction fees, we are excited to release Blocknative ETH gas API: Gas Pla...

ℹ️ Web3Onboard has joined the thirdweb family, please contact them for any support questions. In Web3, crypto wallets have largely replaced usernames and passwords as the primary method for accessing applications. But they still present many obstacles for developers — providing a crisp crypto wallet onboarding experience requires handling many edge cases and often involves custom code for every wallet an application wants to support. To increase Web3 adoption, Blocknative created and maintain...

This essay was originally published on Bankless.Every pending Ethereum transaction invisibly competes in the mempool to be confirmed. While the mempool is a critical piece of blockchain infrastructure, many (most?) people have little understanding of how the mempool game works – or how the rules can be used against your best interests.Are you waiting for your transaction to confirm? That’s the mempool.Are you priced out by high gas fees? That’s the mempool too.Are you frustrated by a stuck tr...

At Blocknative, we believe that the mempool matters. This is because mempool conditions impact every transaction globally. And, as demonstrated in recent weeks, the mempool is a constant source of vulnerabilities, arbitrage opportunities, complexity, and more. For the past several years, the Blocknative team has been focused on giving builders and traders the tools they need to make working with mempool data as easy as every other aspect of Web3. Against this backdrop, we are excited to intro...

Blocknative has uncovered evidence that the MakerDAO liquidations on March 12 and 13 were an engineered event. This evidence is derived from the mempool, the pre-chain area miners use to create blocks. The mempool is an often overlooked – and commonly under-appreciated – aspect of the Ethereum ecosystem. As mempool specialists, Blocknative operates a global network of Geth and Parity (OpenEthereum) nodes in a variety of configurations. This infrastructure powers our real-time mempool monitori...

What would coin collecting look like in the digital world? Jesse Johnson became obsessed with answering this question. And after he co-founded Mintable — a platform that makes it easy to mint and manage NFTs — he set to work to answer that question. Given his background in NFTs (non-fungible tokens), Jesse wanted to explore the idea of NFTs with intrinsic value. This eventually led to the creation of Bullionix — a decentralized gold mint where anyone can use Digix gold tokens to create NFTs. ...
