FAQ
What is a good Solana priority fee right now?
Use the levels on this page: the 50th percentile was at or above the lowest landed fee in half of the last 150 slots, the 75th in three quarters. For a busy program, check what its own transactions paid in the table by program. A higher price is no guarantee: inclusion also depends on the accounts you write and on reaching the leader.
Why do the levels say 'lowest fee that landed'?
Because that is what the node reports: getRecentPrioritizationFees returns, for each recent slot, the lowest priority fee among the transactions included in it. It is not an average and not a distribution of all prices.
How do I set a priority fee?
Add two ComputeBudget instructions: SetComputeUnitLimit with the units your transaction needs and SetComputeUnitPrice with the price in micro-lamports per unit. The fee is ⌈limit × price ÷ 1,000,000⌉ lamports.
Who receives the priority fee?
The validator that produces the block receives 100 % of it (SIMD-0096). Half of the base fee is burned.
