Why Fees Exist

Blockchain miners require compensation for processing transactions ("Gas"). Fees fluctuate based on:

Handling Insufficient Funds

Transactions fail without adequate gas. Always maintain small amounts of native tokens (ETH for Ethereum, TRX for Tron) for fee coverage.


FAQ: Web3 Wallet Transactions
