Overview

The eth_maxPriorityFeePerGas RPC method returns the current maximum priority fee per gas (a.k.a. the miner/validator tip) suggested by the node for a transaction to be included promptly under EIP-1559 fee pricing. It lets wallets and dApps pick a tip that reflects current network conditions.

Use case

This method is particularly useful when the user wants to ensure that a transaction is processed quickly, even in a congested network where transaction fees may fluctuate rapidly. By setting a priority fee at or above the suggested value, clients can improve the chances of timely inclusion in a block.

Parameters

None.

Return Object

• maxPriorityFeePerGas - The maximum priority fee per gas the user is willing to pay, in wei (hex-encoded).
