The article analyzes the processing times of transactions on the Ethereum blockchain, focusing on the accuracy of estimation models provided by Etherscan and EthGasStation. It highlights how Etherscan is particularly effective for predicting cheap transaction processing times but lacks transparency in its methodology. Conversely, EthGasStation offers the best estimates for other gas price categories. The paper emphasizes the potential risks for developers due to reliance on non-transparent services, suggesting that developers must utilize multiple models to ensure accuracy and minimize overhead in their applications.
Etherscan Gas Tracker proved to be the most accurate for predicting cheap transaction processing times, but its lack of transparency presents risks for developers.
EthGasStation provides the best estimates for other gas price categories, highlighting the need for developers to rely on multiple services for accuracy.
