How to Use This Calculator

1. Set Gas Price

Enter current gas price in Gwei. Check real-time gas prices from block explorers.

2. Set Gas Limit

21,000 for simple ETH transfers. Complex transactions require more gas.

3. Choose Speed

Select transaction speed based on urgency. Faster = higher fee.

Gas Saving Tips

  • Send transactions during low network congestion (nights/weekends)
  • Use Layer 2 solutions (Arbitrum, Optimism) for lower fees
  • Batch multiple transactions together
  • Monitor gas price trackers before sending

Understanding Ethereum Gas Fees

What is Gas?

Gas is the unit that measures the amount of computational effort required to execute operations on the Ethereum network. Every transaction requires gas to process, and users pay for this gas in ETH.

Total Cost = Gas Price (Gwei) × Gas Used

1 ETH = 1,000,000,000 Gwei (10⁹ Gwei)

Factors Affecting Gas Prices

  • Network Congestion: More users = higher prices
  • Transaction Complexity: Smart contracts need more gas
  • Time of Day: Lower fees during off-peak hours
  • Block Space: Limited space per block creates competition

Alternative EVM Chains

Gas Calculation Formula

Total Cost (ETH) = (Gas Price × Gas Limit) ÷ 1,000,000,000

Total Cost (USD) = [(Gas Price × Gas Limit) ÷ 1,000,000,000] × ETH Price
