Blobwatcher is a tool to monitor your execution client's mempool for blob transactions and determine how long it takes for them to get included. Data tracked by the tool:
- BaseFee monitoring for both blobs and the network
- Users propagating blob transactions along with the appropriate labelling for popular rollups.
- Builder Monitoring by blob transactions included
- Transaction Pool Monitoring For Blobs
This tool currently only works using a websocket endpoint. All blob transactions observed, dropped
and included on chain will have the relevant metrics recorded for them which can be used
to build panels via grafana. An example dashboard has been attached in the dashboard folder.
This tool can be either run using go or the dockerfile attached in the repository.

go run . --execution-endpoint ws://localhost:8546 --metrics-endpoint localhost:8080
