Ethereum gas price volatility represents one of the most significant operational challenges facing infrastructure providers in the blockchain ecosystem. Unlike traditional financial markets where hedging instruments are readily available, Ethereum participants have historically lacked tools to manage gas price risk, leaving them exposed to unpredictable cost spikes that can devastate business operations.

For high-frequency trading operations, a single gas spike can erase months of carefully calculated profits. L2 batch operators face the constant threat of settlement costs exceeding their operational budgets, while dApp developers sponsoring user transactions must maintain substantial treasury buffers to handle network congestion. Infrastructure protocols running oracles, coprocessors, and other operations find themselves unable to predict operational costs, making long-term planning nearly way harder.

The** absence of gas hedging mechanisms** forces these critical infrastructure providers to either accept unpredictable costs or limit their operations during high-gas periods, ultimately constraining the growth and efficiency of the entire Ethereum ecosystem.

GasOps is done with that in mind and brings a solution by creating an hedging instrument for any kind of user. Be a node operator, an individual, an infrastructure manager. You will be able to write your own option contracts or deal with those wrote by the others in an order book.
GasOps integrates Chainlink Automation and Functions to check offchain data whenever an option expires. More specifically Blob and Gas on Eth and L2's gas averages.
