Base Block Header Info — pay-per-call API

Name: code402 — Base Block Header Info
Price: 0.002 USD
Author: code402

$0.002 per call · 20 free calls/day · no signup · pay with card credits or a signed USDC voucher (x402)

Latest (or specified) Base block header: number, timestamp, transaction count, base fee. Preflighted before payment.

Honest scope: Reads public Base chain state via RPC, preflighted so you never pay during an outage. It proves what is on-chain — not who controls a key or what happens off-chain.

Try it (first 20 calls/day free)

curl -X POST https://code402.dev/v1/tools/block-info/call \
  -H "content-type: application/json" \
  -d '{"block":"latest"}'

No key needed for the free tier. When the free quota is used up, the API replies HTTP 402 with the exact price — agents sign the x402 voucher and retry; humans buy card credits. Every paid response carries a signed receipt you can verify offline.
