I'm wondering if Ethereum, or ETH, gets burned or destroyed when it's used to pay for gas fees on the Ethereum network. In other words, does the amount of ETH in circulation decrease when it's utilized for transaction costs? Does ETH get burned for gas?

The validator that handles a specific transaction receives a portion of the gas fee as a tip.
