00Abstract
The Gas Back program reads the network fees a wallet paid on 50 networks, prices each fee in US dollars on the day it was paid and converts the total into points. Points convert into $GGAS, the governance and utility token of the protocol. Season 0 covers fees paid up to a snapshot on December 15, 2026, 00:00 UTC.
A gas saving app, planned for Q1 2027, lowers future fees through fee forecasts, transaction batching, fee limit orders and cross-network refuelling. mygas.one also plans a market where validators sell blockspace forward and buyers purchase guaranteed inclusion. Realtime confirmations, pay-per-request payments for software agents and an institutional lane are built on that market. $GGAS holders govern the parameters of these products.
This working draft describes the Gas Back methodology, the planned products, the draft token model and governance. It will be revised as the protocol is built and reviewed.
01Problem statement
1.1Fee history
A wallet active since 2019 may have paid hundreds or thousands of dollars in fees on Ethereum, its rollups and other chains. In return the payer receives no balance, status or vote on how fees are set. Block explorers show one network and one transaction at a time, so most users do not know their total fee spend.
1.2Fee volatility
On Ethereum the EIP-1559 base fee can rise by up to 12.5% per block while blocks are full, so fees in a quiet hour and a busy hour of the same day can differ several times over. Rollup fees also depend on the cost of posting data to Ethereum. Users cannot fix a fee in advance, and businesses that pay gas for their users carry this variance.
1.3Confirmation time
A transaction on Ethereum mainnet waits for the next 12-second slot, and economic finality follows about two epochs later, roughly 13 minutes. Trades, checkout payments and automated agents wait for these confirmations. Faster chains require users to move liquidity and accept a different trust model.
1.4Fragmentation across networks
Each network has its own fee token, fee rules and explorer. Users who arrive on a new chain often hold assets there and no native coin to pay the first fee. One person may use an EVM wallet, a Solana wallet and a Bitcoin address, with fee history split across all three.
mygas.one addresses these points: Gas Back assigns a value to past fees, the gas saving app lowers future fees, blockspace markets fix the price of inclusion in advance, realtime execution shortens confirmation time, and one account covers all 50 networks.
02System overview
mygas.one has two product lines. The first serves users: it rewards fees already paid and lowers future fees. The second is a blockspace market between validators and the traders, wallets, agents and institutions who buy inclusion.
Fees paid on 50 networks are converted into $GGAS points. The gas saving app lowers future fees, and its use earns Season 1 points.
Validators sell blockspace forward and buyers purchase guaranteed inclusion. Realtime execution, agent payments and institutional lanes use these commitments.
The lines are connected by order flow: transactions that users send through the app are the first expected buyers of inclusion preconfirmations, and validators who sell them receive income that is more predictable than priority fees. Users earn $GGAS for fees paid, validators and market makers stake it as collateral, and holders vote on fees, seasons and the network list.

03Gas Back: Season 0 methodology
Season 0 is retroactive and rewards fees that wallets have already paid. The same method applies to every network.
3.1Supported networks
Season 0 covers 50 networks: 18 EVM layer 1 networks and sidechains, 24 layer 2 and layer 3 networks and 8 non-EVM networks. Networks were selected by fee spend and user activity. New networks are added between seasons by governance vote.
EVM L1 and sidechains · 18
L2 and L3 · 24
Non-EVM · 8
3.2Fee definition by network type
A fee is the amount the network charged the wallet for a transaction, in the network's fee token. It is measured as follows:
- EVM layer 1 networks: gas used multiplied by the effective gas price (base fee plus priority tip).
- Rollups: the execution fee plus the layer 1 data fee reported in the transaction receipt.
- Solana: the base signature fee plus any priority fee.
- Tron: TRX burned for energy and bandwidth. Resources obtained by staking are excluded because no fee was paid.
- TON, Aptos, NEAR and Starknet: the total fee charged by the protocol for the transaction.
- Sui: computation and storage charges minus the storage rebate.
- Bitcoin: inputs minus outputs, attributed to the addresses that funded the inputs in proportion to their contribution.
3.3Pricing at historical rates
Each fee is converted to US dollars at the daily reference price of its fee token on the day of inclusion. The reference price is the median of several independent price sources. If a fee token had no market price yet, as in the earliest blocks of some networks, the first available daily price is used. Later token price changes do not affect the score: a fee paid in 2017 counts at its 2017 value.
3.4Failed transactions
A reverted transaction consumes gas, and the wallet pays for it. Season 0 counts fees from failed and successful transactions in the same way.
3.5Exclusions
- Testnet fees, which have no monetary cost.
- Self-transfer loops between related wallets that exist only to generate fee volume (section 4).
- Wallets in sybil clusters (section 4).
- Fees paid by someone else on the wallet's behalf, such as relayers and sponsored transactions. These count for the party that paid.
3.6Points formula
spread = min(2.00, 1 + 0.03 × (networks − 1))
age = 1.30 first fee before 2020
1.20 first fee in 2020-2021
1.10 first fee in 2022-2023
1.00 later
Gas paid is the main term: each dollar of fees earns 100 points. Transactions add 5 points each, so wallets on networks with sub-cent fees still accumulate points. Network spread adds 3% per network after the first and is capped at ×2.00, reached at 35 networks; long-term users tend to appear on many networks, while fee farms usually concentrate on one low-fee network. Wallet age applies up to ×1.30 based on the year of the first counted fee.
3.7Worked example
Example wallet: $1,240.18 in fees, 412 transactions, 14 networks, first fee in 2019.
| Step | Value |
|---|---|
| Gas paid, $1,240.18 × 100 | 124,018 |
| Transactions, 412 × 5 | 2,060 |
| Subtotal | 126,078 |
| Network spread, 1 + 0.03 × 13 | × 1.39 |
| Wallet age, first fee in 2019 | × 1.30 |
| Season 0 points | 227,823 |
The wallet is in grade RON 98, 22,177 points below the RON 100 threshold.
3.8Octane grades
The Season 0 total determines a wallet's grade. Grades above RON 92 add a bonus to Season 1 points, and the top three grades carry additional benefits.
| Grade | Season 0 points | Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| RON 92 | 0+ | Base rate |
| RON 95 | 10,000+ | +5% on Season 1 points |
| RON 98 | 50,000+ | +10% on Season 1 points |
| RON 100 | 250,000+ | +15% on Season 1 points and Refuel credits |
| JET A-1 | 1,000,000+ | +20% on Season 1 points and an early claim window |
| RP-1 | 5,000,000+ | +25% on Season 1 points and a genesis council seat |
3.9Multiple wallets
Wallets from any supported ecosystem can be combined; the checker accepts EVM addresses, ENS names and Solana, Tron, TON, Sui, Aptos, Starknet, NEAR and Bitcoin addresses. For combined wallets, gas and transactions are summed, each distinct network counts once for spread, and wallet age uses the earliest first fee. Before the claim, each wallet is linked to the claiming account with one signed message in its own signature scheme. Linking moves no funds.
3.10Snapshot, conversion and claim
The Season 0 snapshot is taken on December 15, 2026, 00:00 UTC. Fees in blocks included before that time count. After the snapshot a preliminary list is published, followed by the appeal window described in section 4.6.
Season 0 receives 8% of the total $GGAS supply, 80,000,000 tokens. Each eligible wallet receives a share proportional to its points:
The final list is committed as a Merkle root, and the claim opens on mygas.one in Q1 2027. Under the current draft, tokens unclaimed when the claim window closes return to the Gas Back pool for future seasons. The window length will be announced with the claim date.
04Anti-sybil and data integrity
4.1Purpose
Allocations are proportional to points, so points earned by farms reduce the share of other users. The filter removes manufactured activity and is designed to keep ordinary users with several wallets eligible.
4.2Clustering signals
Wallets are grouped into a cluster when several independent signals agree; one signal alone does not exclude a wallet. Signals include:
- Funding graph: many wallets seeded by the same source in a short window, often with identical amounts.
- Behavioural patterns: the same sequence of contracts, the same order of actions and the same gas settings repeated across wallets.
- Timing: transactions from different wallets sent within seconds of each other on a regular schedule.
- Exit points: many wallets sending funds to the same exchange deposit address.
- Lifecycle: wallets created, used for a short period of fee activity and abandoned at the same time.
4.3Self-transfer loops
Funds sent in loops between related wallets, or back to the origin, with no economic purpose produce fees that look normal on chain. Transactions in such loops are removed from the score; the rest of the wallet's history stays eligible.
4.4Sponsored and relayed fees
Fees count for the party that paid them. When a paymaster sponsors an ERC-4337 user operation, or a relayer submits a meta-transaction, the fee belongs to the sponsor. A smart account that pays its own fees is scored as a separate wallet.
4.5Data integrity
Fee data is read per network from archive nodes and indexers, reconciled against block totals and cross-checked for the largest wallets. Only blocks that reached the network's finality rule before the snapshot count, which excludes reorganised blocks. Before the claim, mygas.one plans to publish the methodology, per-network fee totals and the scoring code so wallet owners can reproduce their results.
4.6Appeals
After the preliminary list is published, a 14-day appeal window opens. A wallet owner can contest an exclusion or a score by signing a message from the affected wallet and describing the case. Appeals are reviewed manually, and aggregate outcomes are published without identifying wallets.
05Gas saving app
The app is planned for Q1 2027. It works with the user's existing wallet, and the user keeps custody of funds at all times.
5.1Gas Radar
Gas Radar shows a 24-hour fee forecast for each of the 50 networks with low-fee periods marked. The model combines recent base fee history, block fullness, time-of-day and weekly patterns, and for rollups the cost of posting data to Ethereum. Users set a target price per network and receive an alert when the forecast or the live fee reaches it.
5.2One-click batching through EIP-7702
EIP-7702 lets an ordinary wallet delegate to smart contract code, so one transaction can carry several calls, such as a token approval and the action that follows it. Each Ethereum transaction pays an intrinsic cost of 21,000 gas, so batching the pair pays it once. Setting the delegation is a one-time cost per wallet.
| Scenario | Gas |
|---|---|
| Approve as its own transaction, 21,000 base + 25,000 work | 46,000 |
| Swap as its own transaction, 21,000 base + 129,000 work | 150,000 |
| Two transactions in total | 196,000 |
| One batched transaction, 21,000 base + 154,000 work | ≈ 175,000 |
The saving is about 21,000 gas: roughly 11% for this pair, and between 10% and 20% for typical pairs depending on the gas used by the second call. At an illustrative ETH price of $3,000, 21,000 gas costs about $0.03 at 0.5 gwei, $0.32 at 5 gwei and $1.89 at 30 gwei.
5.3Limit send
Limit send places a limit order on a transaction's fee. The user sets a maximum fee and an expiry and signs once. mygas.one holds the signed transaction and broadcasts it when the network fee falls below the limit; otherwise the order expires at no cost. The user can cancel at any time by sending a replacement transaction with the same nonce.
5.4Refuel
Refuel provides native gas on networks where the wallet holds none. The user funds one balance in a stablecoin or a major native coin and tops up native gas on any of the 50 networks from it. Each top-up is quoted in advance with the delivered amount and fee. Liquidity providers deliver the gas and are paid on proof of delivery.
5.5Season 1: Burn smart
Season 1 starts at the app launch in Q1 2027 and runs for 90 days. Points are earned for app usage:
- Gas paid through mygas.one earns 200 points per dollar, double the Season 0 rate.
- Gas saved by the app, measured against the fee at the time of signing, earns 100 points per dollar.
- Each transaction sent through the app earns 10 points.
- Season 0 octane grades add a bonus of +5% to +25%.
Under the current draft, Season 1 receives 5% of the total supply from the Gas Back pool.
06Blockspace and preconfirmation markets
Today block inclusion is mostly sold in a spot auction shortly before the block is built. mygas.one plans a forward market where the right to inclusion is bought and sold in advance. Ethereum comes first, with a testnet on Hoodi in Q2 2027 and mainnet in Q3 2027, followed by layer 2 sequencers.
6.1Rationale for forward sales
A validator's priority fees and MEV vary widely from block to block. A forward sale converts part of this income into contracted revenue known in advance. The buyer receives guaranteed inclusion in a specific slot at a known price.
6.2Products
- Whole-block futures. The right to fill an entire future block from an opted-in proposer, for builders, large market makers and applications that need a full block at a set time.
- Inclusion preconfirmations. A signed promise that one transaction will be included in a given slot, for traders, wallets, payment apps and agents.
6.3Validator integration
On Ethereum the proposers for the current and next epoch are known in advance, a lookahead of up to 64 slots, so an opted-in validator can sell commitments for slots it will propose. Integration is planned through a Commit-Boost module (an open validator sidecar for proposer commitments), and operators keep their existing client and relay setup. To join, a validator registers its keys with a BLS signature, posts collateral, and sets a pricing policy or delegates pricing to a market maker.
6.4Collateral and slashing
Each seller posts collateral sized to its open commitments. If a committed transaction is missing from the block, or a sold block is not delivered, the buyer is compensated from that collateral and the seller's reliability score is reduced. A missed slot counts as a broken commitment. Blocks are public, so anyone can verify a fault.
6.5Pricing and settlement
Inclusion preconfirmations trade in a per-slot order book, and whole blocks are sold through auctions that close before the slot. Prices are quoted in ETH on Ethereum, with stablecoin quoting planned for layer 2 markets. Settlement runs after each slot: sellers who delivered are paid, broken commitments trigger compensation, and a protocol fee goes to the treasury. Stakers of $GGAS pay reduced market fees.
6.6Layer 2 networks
On rollups the sequencer orders transactions, so the seller is the sequencer operator. The same commitment format and collateral rules apply, so a wallet can buy inclusion on Ethereum and on rollups through one interface.
6.7Base fee hedging (future work)
Once forward blockspace markets have sufficient liquidity, mygas.one may add a future on the EIP-1559 base fee, settled against the average base fee over a period. Wallets and applications that sponsor gas could use it to hedge fee costs. It is outside the 2027 plan.
07Realtime execution
Preconfirmations let an application know a transaction's result before the block is published. Realtime execution, with a beta planned for Q3 2027, provides these results as a continuous stream.
A realtime builder accepts transactions throughout the slot, orders them and publishes the resulting state in small increments between blocks. Each increment carries a signed commitment backed by the same collateral as the markets, and the final block must match the streamed sequence. Applications read the stream through a realtime RPC: standard JSON-RPC methods for reads and sends, plus subscriptions that push each increment as it is committed.
Use cases include payments shown as confirmed at checkout, DEX fills that a user can act on before the next slot, earlier price updates and liquidations in lending protocols, and agents that act on confirmed state. The target update interval will be published after testnet measurement.
Coverage depends on how many upcoming proposers have opted in. For slots without an opted-in proposer, applications fall back to normal confirmations; the RPC reports which slots are covered.
08x402 agentic payments
HTTP defines status code 402 Payment Required. The open x402 pattern uses it so software can pay for a request without an account or a checkout page. mygas.one plans to support x402, with a beta in Q3 2027, and to pair each payment with an inclusion preconfirmation so the API provider can accept the payment before it settles.
- Request. An agent calls a paid API, for example a data feed or a model endpoint.
- 402 response. The server replies with status 402 and its payment terms: amount, token, network, recipient and a deadline.
- Signed retry. The agent signs one payment authorization and resends the request with the signature attached.
- Verify and commit. The mygas.one facilitator checks the signature and balance, buys an inclusion preconfirmation for the settlement transaction and returns a signed receipt.
- Response. The server sees the committed payment and returns the response without waiting for settlement.
- Settlement. The payment is included in the committed slot. If it is not included, the blockspace seller's collateral compensates the server.
09Institutional blockspace
Regulated firms that use public networks need controls that public mempools do not provide. Institutional blockspace, planned for Q4 2027, adds these controls to the same markets.
- Known counterparties. Buyers and sellers in an institutional lane pass business verification, so a bank knows which validator or sequencer operator it contracts with.
- Private order flow. Transactions go directly to committed block producers and stay out of the public mempool until inclusion.
- Policy controls. Lanes can enforce allowlists, sanctions screening and transaction limits set by the institution.
- Audit trails. Each commitment, inclusion and settlement is recorded and can be exported for compliance and accounting.
- Public settlement. Assets and final state remain on the public chain, where tokenized assets keep access to public liquidity and composability.
Intended users are banks, asset managers, payment companies, tokenization platforms and market makers that need predictable execution and a compliance record.
10$GGAS token
10.1Supply
$GGAS has a fixed supply of 1,000,000,000 tokens. No further tokens can be minted. All rewards described in this paper are paid from the allocations below.
10.2Allocation
| Allocation | Share | Tokens | Release |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gas Back airdrops | 25% | 250,000,000 | Per season: Season 0 at claim, later seasons by governance |
| Ecosystem and partner incentives | 15% | 150,000,000 | Grants to integrations, released by the foundation over 48 months |
| Market incentives | 10% | 100,000,000 | Validator and market maker programs over 48 months from mainnet markets |
| Foundation treasury | 15% | 150,000,000 | Spent by governance vote over 48 months |
| Core contributors | 17% | 170,000,000 | 12-month cliff, then 36 months linear |
| Early backers | 13% | 130,000,000 | 12-month cliff, then 24 months linear |
| Liquidity | 5% | 50,000,000 | Available at launch for exchange liquidity |
| Total | 100% | 1,000,000,000 |
10.3Circulating supply at launch
Under the draft, about 15% of supply circulates when the claim opens: the Season 0 airdrop (8%), launch liquidity (5%) and initial ecosystem grants (2%). Contributor and backer tokens are locked for at least 12 months.
10.4Emissions per season
| Season | Share of supply | Tokens | Basis |
|---|---|---|---|
| Season 0 · Retro | 8% | 80,000,000 | Fees paid on 50 networks up to Dec 15, 2026 |
| Season 1 · Burn smart | 5% | 50,000,000 | Gas paid and saved through the app over 90 days |
| Season 2 and later | 12% | 120,000,000 | Size and rules of each season set by a GIP |
| Gas Back pool | 25% | 250,000,000 |
10.5Utility
- Governance. Holders vote on market fees, the network list, season rules and treasury spending.
- Collateral. Validators and market makers stake $GGAS alongside their primary collateral in blockspace markets; stake can be slashed for broken commitments.
- Fee discounts. Stakers pay reduced fees in the markets.
- Season boosts. Future seasons can reward staked holders with point multipliers, subject to governance.
11Foundation and governance
11.1Objectives
The protocol has three objectives: return value to wallets that pay network fees, operate an open, fairly priced market for blockspace, and transfer control of both to $GGAS holders through governance.
11.2The mygas.one Foundation
A mygas.one Foundation is to be established to hold the treasury, contract with contributors, run the Season 0 claim and administer governance until voting moves on chain. Its jurisdiction and structure will be published once it is formed.
11.3Stakeholders
Governance decisions affect the following groups:
- Validators secure the networks and earn from the blockspace they produce.
- Users and traders pay a fee for each transaction.
- Protocols pay gas for liquidations, rebalancing and maintenance.
- Developers design applications around fees and confirmation times.
- Wallets connect users to the networks and often pay gas on users' behalf.
These interests sometimes conflict: validators seek higher revenue and users seek lower costs. Governance sets the rules between them through public proposals and votes.
11.4The GIP process
- Discussion. An idea is posted on the public forum for feedback.
- Draft GIP. A mygas.one Improvement Proposal states the change, its rationale and its cost.
- Review. A minimum 7-day review period for questions and amendments.
- Vote. $GGAS holders vote; a proposal passes with a majority of votes cast and a minimum quorum.
- Execution. The foundation executes passed proposals until on-chain execution through a timelock replaces it.
11.5Voting phases
From the token launch, votes are signed off chain, weighted by $GGAS balance and executed by the foundation. From Q4 2027 governance moves on chain: proposals execute through a governor contract with a timelock, which gives holders time to respond before a change takes effect. Quorum and thresholds for each proposal type will be set in the first GIPs.
11.6Genesis council
For its first 12 months, a genesis council advises on season rules and new networks. It is made up of wallets that reached the RP-1 grade in Season 0 and a minority of foundation seats. The council can propose and review changes and cannot move treasury funds on its own.

13Risks
Participants should consider the following risks. The list is incomplete.
- Technical risk. Indexers, price sources and node providers can fail or return wrong data. Network upgrades and reorganisations can change historical records.
- Data risk. Fee attribution can be wrong in edge cases such as shared addresses, sponsored transactions or unusual Bitcoin spends. Appeals reduce this risk but do not remove it.
- Smart contract risk. Claim, staking, market and governance contracts can contain bugs. External audits are planned before each mainnet release; none have been published yet.
- Market risk. The value of $GGAS can fall, including to zero. Demand for blockspace commitments may be smaller than expected, and market liquidity may be thin.
- Validator and counterparty risk. Collateral may be insufficient in extreme conditions, and coverage of realtime execution depends on how many proposers opt in.
- Regulatory risk. Rules for tokens, airdrops and blockspace markets differ by country and change over time. Some features may be unavailable in some regions, and institutional lanes require verification.
- Operational risk. Key management, infrastructure outages and phishing attacks that impersonate mygas.one can harm users.
14User safety
Fake claim sites appear around most airdrops. Follow these rules to keep your wallet safe:
- Nobody will ask for your seed phrase or private key. Any page or person that does is a scam.
- The checker never asks you to connect or sign. A public address is enough to see your points.
- mygas.one charges no fee to release an airdrop. A claim costs one normal network fee, paid from your own wallet.
- Nobody from mygas.one will DM you first. Support is provided in public channels and the chat on the website.
- Claims take place only on mygas.one. Bookmark the site and open it from the bookmark each time.
