• Background:

  • ETH token-nomic (Inflation, Deflation)

  • Miner income

    • Block Reward (also, Uncle Block Reward)

    • Transaction Fee (Gas) -- reached nearly half of Block Reward - Security Issue

    • MEV

• Issues

  • Gas War

  • Congestion

  • Security threat by Miners

• Base Fee -- Burn

• Priority Fee -- Miner

• Max Fee -- Remaining Part will be refund to sender

Sample Code with Web3j:

// Get baseFee from last block
BigInteger baseFeePerGas = web3j.ethGetBlockByNumber(DefaultBlockParameterName.LATEST, false).send().getBlock().getBaseFeePerGas();
BigInteger maxPriorityFeePerGas = web3j.ethMaxPriorityFeePerGas().send().getMaxPriorityFeePerGas();
BigInteger maxFeePerGas = baseFeePerGas.add(maxPriorityFeePerGas);

Before the execution, would like to how much gas the transaction need to get successfully executed.

For better gas preparation;

For more reasonable fee structure;

For avoid most TX execution failures;

etc.

Sample Code with Web3j:

    BigInteger maxPriorityFeePerGas = web3j.ethMaxPriorityFeePerGas().send().getMaxPriorityFeePerGas();

    BigInteger maxFeePerGas = baseFeePerGas.add(maxPriorityFeePerGas);

    BigInteger gasLimit = estimateApproveGasLimit(web3j, fromAddress, scAddress, spender, amountInWei, maxFeePerGas, maxPriorityFeePerGas);
