Ethereum Gas Tracker

See current Ethereum gas conditions before making an on-chain action.

What this means

Gas price reflects demand for Ethereum block space. A simple transfer uses less gas than a complex smart-contract interaction.

Practical use

  • Check whether a non-urgent interaction can wait.
  • Compare current conditions before bridging or swapping.
  • Estimate directionally, then confirm the final wallet quote.

How it is calculated

Low, proposed and fast gas prices are retrieved from the Etherscan gas oracle and cached every five minutes.

A stale label means the last successful value is being shown. Unavailable values are never replaced with zero.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

What is gwei?

Gwei is one billionth of one ETH and is the common unit for Ethereum gas prices.

Is gas price the same as total cost?

No. Total cost equals gas used multiplied by gas price.

Why can my wallet show another value?

Wallets may use a different provider, priority fee or safety margin.
