📚 Quick fact | Gas fees
1 Gwei is 0.000000001 ETH, or 10 to the power of −9 ETH.
If a transfer fails, the Gas already used is usually not refunded, because the network has still performed the computation.
The transaction fee is roughly the amount of Gas consumed × the Gas price. Gas prices are usually quoted in Gwei.
Why this matters: Charging for every step of computation helps prevent malicious programs from overloading the network with operations such as infinite loops.
Tip: If an operation isn’t urgent, consider avoiding busy periods—fees are often much lower.
