The eternal chain can be seen as a large computer network, where people can perform tasks such as sending information or running programs. Just like in the real world, completing these tasks requires energy.

In the eternal chain, each calculation operation is set with a "gas" price. gas cost refers to the total cost of operations performed in a transaction. When sending transactions or running smart contracts, gas fees need to be paid in order to process them.

As long as the computational load (gas) on the eternal chain exceeds a specific threshold, gas costs begin to rise. The more gas exceeds the threshold, the faster the gas cost increases.

Higher costs may be caused by factors such as popular decentralized applications or non homogeneous tokens, cyclical increase in trading volume on decentralized exchanges, or massive user activity during peak hours.

Before deployment, developers on the Eternal Chain should carefully optimize the usage of their smart contracts. If many people are using a poorly written smart contract, it will consume more gas and may inadvertently cause network congestion.

gas is a key element in ensuring the security of the eternal chain and handling transactions. gas plays a role in many ways:

• gas can help Eternal Chain prevent hacker attacks and prevent malicious actors from crushing the network through fraudulent activities.
• Because computing consumes gas, engaging in expensive transactions, unintentionally or maliciously launching spam attacks on the Eternal Chain is not economically worthwhile.
• Setting hard limits on the amount of computation that can be executed at any time can prevent the eternal chain from being crushed, helping to ensure that the network is always accessible.
