eth_bigBlockGasPrice

POST
/{apiKey}

Returns the base fee for the next big block. HyperEVM uses a dual-block architecture with fast blocks (1-second interval, 2M gas limit) and big blocks (1-minute interval, 30M gas limit). This method returns the base fee specifically for big blocks, as opposed to eth_gasPrice which returns the base fee for the next fast block.
