Speed Up Transaction

Speeds up a transaction by creating a replacement transaction with the same parameters but higher gas fees.

This endpoint only works for:

EVM-compatible networks (Ethereum, Polygon, BSC, etc.)
Transactions that are in ‘Broadcasted’ status (already submitted to blockchain, but not confirmed yet)

The speed-up works by:

Extracting the parameters from the original broadcasted transaction
Creating a new transaction with the same nonce, recipient, value, and data
Using higher gas fees (maximum between 10% bump or Fast network fees)
Replacing the original transaction in the mempool

Note: Success is not guaranteed as it depends on network conditions and whether the original transaction has already been mined.

data	ABI encoded function call data in hex format. Can also be the encoded smart contract data when the transaction is a contract deployment.	String (optional)

Field	Description	Type - Optional
Header	Transaction header for the intermediary state of account transactions, i.e. prior to being signing.	Object (required)
↳ Header.executionEnergyAmount	The destination address or target contract. Leave undefined when the transaction is a contract deployment.	String/Number/BigInt (required)

↳ Header.sender	The account address that is source of this transaction	String (optional)
↳ Header.nonce	The account nonce	String/Number/BigInt (optional)
↳ Header.expiry	expiration of the transaction	Integer (optional)
