Excuse me, but could you please clarify who exactly pays the gas fee in cryptocurrency transactions? Is it the sender of the transaction, the receiver, or perhaps both parties involved? And could you elaborate on the role of gas fees in ensuring the smooth functioning of the blockchain network, as well as the factors that influence their amount? I'm curious to understand the economic dynamics behind this aspect of cryptocurrency transactions. Who pay the gas fee?

During a transaction, you pay gas fees through your own cryptocurrency wallet. This means that the funds are deducted from your wallet balance, not from any external source.

Cryptocurrency transactions often involve a cost known as gas fees. These fees are not imposed by the platform you're using, but rather, they are paid directly to validators on the blockchain network.

It's important to note that gas fees are not paid to OpenSea or any other marketplace where you might be conducting your transaction. They are solely paid to the validators who maintain the security and integrity of the blockchain.
