Ethereum RPC
Overview
txpool+content is specifically designed to return all pending and queued transactions currently in the transaction pool. It's important to note that this method is supported only on Geth, which is a popular Ethereum client.
Parameters
txpool_content method does not accept any parameters. This means you can call it without needing to provide any additional information to get the current state of the transaction pool.
