Fetch blobBaseFee dynamically / query Optimism GasOracle for scalars #217

Closed cgewecke closed 8 months ago

cgewecke commented 8 months ago

As of today, Optimism's GasOracle returns 1 for the blobBaseFee. This could be because relevant RPC endpoints have not shipped in Geth yet so no one knows what the fee is? Not sure.

The oracle is updated every few seconds...

Open Questions

will etherscan support the forthcoming eth_blobBaseFee endpoint?
if not - should eth_feeHistory via alchemy or infura be used?
if not - should the oracle be queried along with requests for the baseFee / blobFee scalars
how dynamic are the scalars? ATM they're hardcoded as constants here.
