eth_estimateUserOperationGas

Please refer to 1Balance & Relay to create a sponsorApiKey.

The estimated preVerificationGas is always zero as it is not required by the bundler. Instead, transaction fees are settled post-execution which avoids overcharging the user. Other implementations unconditionally charge users the entire preVerificationGas amount since this is not metered by the EntryPoint.

See Advantages & Highlights.
