Mempool API

Overview
This documentation describes how to connect to and use Blocknative's transaction monitoring service using webhooks. The service delivers near real time notifications of Ethereum and Bitcoin transaction state changes via POSTs to your URL (webhook). Each state change is a JSON payload with all the transaction details.
To use our API with web sockets, please see the SDK.
API usage has rate limits. Please see Rate Limits for more details.
Getting Started
Setup API Key
1.Create a Blocknative account by clicking the Sign up button on Mempool Explorer and following the instructions. Account creation requires email confirmation to complete.
2.Blocknative will create a Default API key for your account that you can use. You can create additional API keys from your account page on explorer.blocknative.com/account by clicking the Add new API key button to the upper right.
3.Secret keys additionally are available to be generated for API keys which allow secure usage of configuration modification endpoints.
Add new API key button
API Key creation form
Setup Webhook
Create a new webhook for an API key by clicking the "Add a Webhook" button to the right of the API key. This will reveal a form to enter the webhook specifics: URL, blockchain (currently Ethereum and Bitcoin are supported), and network. See below for Supported Networks. You can optionally include a username and password if your webhook used basic authentication.
Webhook creation form
We support Slack webhooks. If you want to create a Discord webhook, append /slack to the end of the Discord URL to use its Slack compatibility mode.
Slack webhooks must begin with https://hooks.slack.com/services.
Discord webhooks must begin with https://discordapp.com/api/webhooks.
Slack and Discord limit the size of messages so notifications involving large contract inputs may be abbreviated. Normal, i.e. not Slack/Discord, webhooks are not abbreviated.
Add Address to Watch
Add an address to watch by clicking the Watch Address button and entering the address. 
Ethereum addresses begin with a 0x followed by 40 characters (hexadecimal). Any valid Ethereum address can be used, including external accounts and smart contracts.

The following Bitcoin addresses are valid:
Address Type

Watch Address form
To stop notifications for an address, use the View Address button next to Add webhook, and click the Delete icon next to the address you'd like to stop watching.
View Addresses button lets you view a list of all addresses you're watching on that API Key
It is safe to add the same address multiple times or to unwatch addresses not being watched.
Authentication
No authentication is currently required to facilitate testing, apart from configuration modification endpoints. Basic auth (username/password) is supported and recommended for production use, and we are adding additional authentication methods based on customer requirements. We recommend HTTPS requests but also offer support for HTTP.
Secret keys
Secret keys are available to be generated per API key, which can be used to access these endpoints:
​Get all configuration scopes​
​Get configuration in specific scope​
​Add a configuration​
​Delete a configuration​
These end points require a 'credentials' header which takes the API key and associated secret key in one variable in the form "apiKey:secretKey".
Example: 9ed49579-a78b-4c82-b796-6db3aded6ed2:67ed12d1-f0ab-4f18-812c-58356684728b

Examples
Direct send transaction
A direct send transaction is sending funds (ether) from one account to another. The hash is setup as a watched transaction and/or to address or the from addresses or both are setup as watched addresses.

Contract call transaction
When watched transaction is a contract call, or a watched address makes a contract call, a similar transaction notification is generated where the to address is the contract.

Transaction Events (State Changes)
Currently pending and confirmed transactions are supported for Bitcoin
Key
Description
pending
the transaction was detected in the "pending" area of the mempool and is eligible for inclusion in a block
pending-simulation
the transaction was detected in the "pending" area of the mempool and is eligible for inclusion in a block and has been simulated against the latest block
stuck
the transaction was detected in the "queued" area of the mempool and is not eligible for inclusion in a block
speedup
a replacement transaction (same nonce and from, higher gas) was detected in the mempool with the same to, value and input parameters as the transaction being replaced
cancel
a replacement transaction (same nonce and from, higher gas) was detected in the mempool with different to, value or input parameters compared to the transaction being replaced
confirmed
the transaction was mined or validated with no errors
failed
