What is Gas?

Gas refers to the fee required to execute transactions or smart contracts on a blockchain (like Ethereum). It is paid in the network's native token (e.g., ETH for Ethereum, BNB for BSC). The more complex the transaction (e.g., DeFi swaps, NFT minting), the higher the gas fee.

What is a Gas Tank?

Gas Tanks refer to a mechanism used to manage and pay for transaction fees (known as "gas") on blockchain networks like Ethereum. Gas fees are required to compensate miners or validators for the computational work of processing and validating transactions.

A Gas Tank allows a wallet to pre-fund gas fees in advance, ensuring that there are always sufficient funds to cover future transactions. These tanks are commonly used in decentralised applications (dApps) or crypto exchanges to streamline operations and ensure that transactions can be executed without interruptions due to insufficient gas.

Why Gas Tank needed?

Seamless User Experience: By pre-funding gas, users don’t need to worry about manually paying transaction fees for every interaction.
Cost Management: Gas Tanks can help manage fluctuating gas prices by allowing users or platforms to purchase gas when prices are lower.
Automation: Gas Tanks can automate transactions, enabling smart contracts or dApps to run without constant user intervention for payments.
Prevent Failed Transactions: Without enough gas, transactions can fail, which may frustrate users. A pre-funded Gas Tank helps avoid this issue.
