Tron network statistics via x402 micropayment — active nodes, TPS, block info, USDT supply
What it does
This endpoint returns Tron network statistics including active node count, current TPS, latest block info, USDT supply, and chain parameters. It is part of the EruditePay x402 Facilitator platform, which exposes 353 pay-per-call blockchain analytics endpoints across Base, Tron, Bitcoin, XRP, and Kaspa.
The specific endpoint `/api/tron/network-stats` costs $0.003 per call, payable in USDC on Base (eip155:8453) or USDT on Tron. It accepts a simple GET request with no required parameters and returns JSON with network health data. The 402 challenge includes a free preview showing real data: active nodes, latest block number and timestamp, transaction count, current TPS, total USDT supply, and a sample of chain parameters.
The broader EruditePay platform covers wallet profiling, token security analysis, DEX quotes, whale tracking, stablecoin analytics, DeFi yields, NFT metadata, sanctions checks, cross-chain bridge operations, MEV detection, arbitrage opportunities, and more — all gated behind x402 micropayments. Prices range from $0.001 to $0.50 per call depending on endpoint complexity. Payment settlement is handled via the EruditePay Bridge facilitator at bridge.eruditepay.com, which supports 20 blockchains.

}Endpoint
Quality
Full OpenAPI schema with clear endpoint descriptions, live 402 challenge captured with free preview data, clear pricing ($0.003 USDC per call), and 353 documented endpoints. Docked slightly because response schemas are not formally defined (only examples in freePreview), and no dedicated docs page was reachable.
Warnings
- —No formal response JSON schema defined — only example output in freePreview
- —The /docs, /api, /pricing, /README pages all return 404, suggesting documentation is only available via the OpenAPI spec and landing page
- —The freePreview shows price as '$0.001 USDC' but the x402 challenge and OpenAPI both specify $0.003 — minor inconsistency
