ETHGas re-engineers the Ethereum pipeline for block construction enabling Validators to sell blockspace in advance of the spot block auction. On one side of the marketplace, ETHGas provides certainty to Validators, and on the other side, it provides an array of precision order execution products for end-users, like traders, to customize their access to blockspace. By enabling 3 millisecond blockspace confirmations and instruments to hedge gas price volatility, ETHGas creates a real-time, gasless Ethereum, where the handling and trading of gas is largely relegated to the background among institutional players. ETHGas has partnered with builders representing over 90% of the market, and is working with the majority of validators to ensure broad network participation and adoption.

ETHGas Founder Kevin Lepsoe expressed enthusiasm, stating, "BTCS's partnership validates our mission to open up and democratize access to blockspace. This collaboration helps pave the way for a much faster, more efficient Ethereum enabling transaction costs or 'gas prices' to be risk-managed within a traditional commodity risk-management framework." He continued, "Together with BTCS, we enhance accessibility, in particular, to global Asset Managers as they look to scale their ETH and Staked ETH Fund offerings."
