I dont get what is the gas price :D

How it works i got some money USDT IN brave wallet want to transfer and it say insuficient funds for gas :smiley: ? can anybody help me out

@JustJovanis every time you try to move cryptocurrency somewhere there is always a fee. Traditionally this fee has been called a “gas fee” but some blockchains or places just will label it a transaction fee. This cryptocurrency you have to use to pay this fee changes depending on the blockchain you are using. For example:

  • Solana = SOL
  • Ethereum = ETH (from Ethereum)
  • Optimism = ETH (from Optimism)

The list goes on. In saying “from Ethereum” and all, I mean that’s the blockchain it has to be on. Some coins/tokens are available on multiple blockchains. And in other cases, they come wrapped so they can appear on others. You always have to be mindful of this and make sure you have the appropriate one.

Gas prices can fluctuate on a regular basis. Some days or times will be far more expensive than others. This is where people use resources like https://etherscan.io/gastracker to see what trends have been, know what current pricing is, and can sometimes plan on when to send to have the lower fees.
