getDemandFactor

getDemandFactor is a method on the ARIO class that retrieves the current network demand factor. This factor is a dynamic multiplier that adjusts the cost of ArNS interactions based on network demand - higher demand results in higher costs, and vice versa.

getDemandFactor does not require authentication.

Parameters

getDemandFactor does not accept parameters.

Examples

getDemandFactor

const { ARIO } = require('@ar.io/sdk');

async function main() {
  const ario = ARIO.init();
  const demandFactor = await ario.getDemandFactor();
  console.log('Current demand factor:', demandFactor);
}

main();

Output

1.05256  // A multiplier where 1.0 represents baseline cost
