Technical principles | Why are Ethereum gas fees split into a base fee and a tip?
The Gas target for each block is half of the Gas limit, and the base fee can adjust by up to 12.5% per block.
With the base fee, wallets can estimate a reasonable fee directly based on on-chain conditions, so users no longer have to guess how much to pay.
Under EIP-1559, the base fee paid for each Ethereum transaction is $ETH , and it is burned. Currently 2004.25.
If you don't understand something, don't take a large position in it. Try it with a small amount first.
