Arbitrum (ARB), gas fees measure computational effort in “gas units.” Users bid higher fees during network congestion to expedite transactions, as seen in DeFi or NFT minting surges. MATIC’s layer-2 solution reduces gas costs, while ARB’s Optimistic Rollups batch transactions for efficiency. High fees ensure network security but can exclude low-value transactions, favoring wealthier users. ETH’s PoS reduces energy costs but not necessarily fees. MATIC and ARB enhance affordability but rely on Ethereum’s security. Balancing accessibility and prioritization remains a challenge. $QI
