# newTxs

**`newTxs`** is a stream of transactions as soon as they are broadcast to the BDN, before any validation occurs. This offers the lowest possible latency and earliest visibility, but the data may include invalid or dropped transactions.

It is recommended that users with latency sensitive applications track the latest nonce for each account and use it to filter out stale messages.

The transaction feed will publish the data for each transaction in a separate message. Users that are only interested in a subset of transactions can utilize the feed's [filtering](https://docs.bloxroute.com/eth/streams/newtxs-and-pendingtxs/filter) options.

**Service available via Gateway-API and Cloud-API.**

## Stream Endpoint

* Method: `newTxs` 
* Cloud API Endpoint: `wss://<region>.eth.blxrbdn.com/ws`
* Gateway-API Endpoint: `ws://127.0.0.1:28333/ws`&#x20;
* Request type: `gRPC`*,`WSS`*&#x20;

#### Requests (Gateway-API)

Notes:

* We assume that the Gateway IP is **`127.0.0.1`** with default ws port **`28333`** in the examples below. By default, the WebSocket endpoint is **`ws://127.0.0.1:28333/ws`** for the Gateway.
* For the Gateway, the authentication header is always required for ws connection.
