The Blocks endpoint allows one to dig into the individual slots and blocks in Ethereum since the Merge (*Slot* `4700013`*, Block* `15537394`). Metrics include validator rewards from the consensus and execution layers, MEV data, and missed reward estimates. See the [blocks glossary](/rated-api/glossary/ethereum/blocks) for the complete set of metrics.

### Get slots and blocks on the Ethereum network

<Endpoint type="GET" path="/v1/eth/blocks" url="/rated-api/api-reference/v1/ethereum/blocks/get-slots-and-blocks-on-the-ethereum-network" />

The Builder Payments endpoint surfaces data on payments/value transfers made by block builders to proposing validators for specific slots and blocks. Specifically, it lists the corresponding transaction hash/es where the builder made this value transfer to the validator. Data is available from *Slot* `13061952`, *Block* `23834125`.

### Get information for block builder payments by slot

<Endpoint type="GET" path="/v1/eth/builderPayments" url="/rated-api/api-reference/v1/ethereum/blocks/get-information-for-block-builder-payments-by-slot" />
