BORING DEFINITION
Gas fees are the transaction costs required to process and validate transactions on a blockchain network, particularly on Ethereum. These fees are paid in the network's native cryptocurrency, often Ether for Ethereum, as compensation for the computational power required.
REAL WORLD EXAMPLE
