The calculation of gas fees in cryptocurrency transactions involves two key factors: gas price and gas limit.

Additionally, you have the option to add a tip to your transaction. This tip is not mandatory but can incentivize validators to prioritize your transaction, leading to faster confirmation times.

Gas price refers to the amount of currency you are willing to pay per unit of gas, which is a measure of the computational effort required to process a transaction.

The gas limit, on the other hand, sets the maximum amount of gas that can be used for a transaction. This prevents a transaction from consuming too many resources and potentially crashing the network.

To find the total gas fee, you simply multiply the gas price by the gas limit. For example, if the gas limit is set to 20,000 and the gas price is 200 gwei per unit, the total gas fee would be 4,000,000 gwei.
