A unit of gas, usually in a +form as a fraction of the native coin, is consumed for every operation on the EVM and requires a +user to pay for these operations.

Operations on Cosmos are represented as read or writes done to the chain's store. + +In Cosmos, a fee is calculated and charged to the user during a message execution. This fee is +calculated from the sum of all gas consumed in an message execution: + +``` +fee = gas * gas price +``` + +In both networks, gas is used to make sure that operations do not require an excess amount of +computational power to complete and as a way to deter bad-acting users from spamming the network. + +## Cosmos SDK `Gas` + +In the Cosmos SDK, gas is tracked in the main `GasMeter` and the `BlockGasMeter`: + +- `GasMeter`: keeps track of the gas consumed during executions that lead to state transitions.

For this reason, gas +consumption must be equitable in order to accurately calculate the state transition hashes and exact +the behaviour that would be seen on the main Ethereum network (main net). -## Gas refunds +In Cosmos, there are types of operations that are not triggered by transactions that can also result in state transitions. Concrete examples are the `BeginBlock` and `EndBlock` operations and the `AnteHandler` checks, which might also read and write to the store before running the state transition from a transaction. - +### `BeginBlock` and `EndBlock` -## AnteHandler +These operations are defined by the Tendermint Core's Application Blockchain Interface (ABCI) and are defined by each Cosmos SDK module.

These checks are usually signature +verification, transaction field validation, transaction fees, etc. + +Because the gas calculated in Ethermint is done by the `IntrinsicGas` method from go-ethereum, a +special `AnteHandler` that is customized for EVM transaction fee verification is required. This +allows Ethermint to generate the expected gas costs for operations done in the network and scale the +gas costs as it would in the Ethereum network. + +## Gas Refunds + +In Ethereum, gas can be specified prior to execution and the remaining gas will be refunded back to +the user if any gas is left over - should fail with out of gas if not enough gas was provided. In +Ethermint, the concept of gas refunds does not exist and the fees paid is not refunded in part back +to the user. The fees exacted on a transaction will be collected by the validator and no refunds are +issued. Thus, it is extremely important to use the correct gas. + +To prevent overspending on fees, providing the `--gas-adjustment` flag for a cosmos transactions +will determine the fees automatically. Also the `eth_estimateGas` rpc call can be used to manually +get the correct gas costs for a transaction. + +## 0 Fee Transactions + +In Cosmos, a minimum gas price is not enforced by the `AnteHandler` as the `min-gas-prices` is +checked against the local node/validator. In other words, the minimum fees accepted are determined +by the validators of the network, and each validator can specify a different value for their fees. +This potentially allows end users to submit 0 fee transactions if there is at least one single +validator that is willing to include transactions with `0` gas price in their blocks proposed. + +For this same reason, in Ethermint it is possible to send transactions with `0` fees for transaction +types other than the ones defined by the `evm` module.
