Priority Fee Estimator
Infrastructure · Deep
A service or API that calculates optimal priority fees for transactions based on recent network conditions. RPC providers like Helius and Triton offer getRecentPrioritizationFees and getPriorityFeeEstimate endpoints that analyze recent slots to recommend fee levels (min, low, medium, high, max) per compute unit. Using an estimator prevents overpaying during low congestion or underpaying during high demand.
