Gas Fees

The cost you pay to execute a transaction or run a smart contract on a blockchain like Ethereum. Gas fees go to the validators who process your transaction. Fees fluctuate based on network demand: when the network is busy, fees spike.

Example

During peak demand, Ethereum gas fees can make small transactions uneconomical.
