eth_gasPrice - Tron

Example code for the eth_gasPrice JSON_RPC method. Complete guide on how to use eth_gasPrice JSON_RPC method in GetBlock Web3 documentation.

This method returns the current price of Energy expressed as a gas price in SUN, hex-encoded. It maps TRON's Energy price into the Ethereum-compatible gas-price field.

Parameters

This method does not accept any parameters.

Response

{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": "getblock.io",
    "result": "0xd2"
}

Response Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
jsonrpc	string	JSON-RPC protocol version ("2.0")
id	string	Request identifier matching the request
result	string	Hex-encoded Energy price in SUN, expressed as gas price

Use Cases

• Cost Estimates: Combine with an estimate to compute a fee

• Fee Display: Show the current Energy price

• Compatibility: Provide a gas price to Ethereum-style tooling

• Monitoring: Track the Energy price over time
