Why do I get charged Ethereum when sending a coin💵 to another exchange or wallet?🤷😇

Gas 🍺🍕 measures the computational effort to process transactions or contracts on Ethereum, paid in ETH.

Fees vary depending on network congestion: higher demand, higher cost. 🤯

The EIP-1559 update (2021) splits fees into a base (burned, reducing circulating ETH) and an optional tip for validators.

This makes fees more predictable. Users pay gas to run dApps, send ETH, or interact with smart contracts.

Layer 2 solutions, like Arbitrum, reduce costs by processing transactions off the main chain, improving the experience on the network.
