eth_feeHistory on Avalanche

Measured 2026-10-04 by our weekly probe, which calls eth_feeHistory through the same Avalanche endpoint customers use.

What eth_feeHistory does

Returns base fees, gas-used ratios and optional priority-fee percentiles for a range of recent blocks. Wallets and SDKs use it to set maxFeePerGas and maxPriorityFeePerGas instead of guessing from eth_gasPrice.
