Problem Statement

CryptoCraze is a powerful API designed to track real-time and historical gas prices on the Ethereum Network. This project aims to provide developers and blockchain enthusiasts with essential information regarding the cost of executing transactions and smart contracts on the Ethereum blockchain.Additionally, CryptoCraze allows users to analyze historical gas price data, enabling them to make informed decisions about gas usage and predict potential congestion periods.

Solution

The API runs on a backend server powered by NodeJS/ExpressJS. We decided to use Typescript since the project would be more easily extendable if we decided to work on CryptoCraze beyond EthWaterloo. Finally, to retrieve gas price information (high, low, average, etc.), we used the EtherScan REST API.
