eth_feeHistory on Linea
Returns base fees and priority-fee percentiles over a range of recent blocks — used to build fee oracles and gas-estimation UIs.
The raw material for a fee oracle: base fees plus your chosen reward percentiles per block. Request a modest blockCount (5–20); very long ranges are slow and rarely sharpen the estimate.
