-The Cosmos SDK uses a different terminology for `gas` than Ethereum. What is called `gasLimit` on Ethereum is called `gasWanted` on Cosmos. You might encounter both terminologies on Evmos since it builds Ethereum on top of the SDK, e.g. when using different wallets like Keplr for Cosmos and Metamask for Ethereum.

 ## Priority Tip
 
-In EIP-1559, the `max_priority_fee_per_gas`, often referred to as `tip`, is an additional gas price that can be added to the `baseFee` in order to incentive transaction prioritization. The higher the tip, the more likely the transaction is included in the block.

-Until the Cosmos SDK version v0.46, however, there is no notion of transaction prioritization. Thus the tip for an EIP-1559 transaction on Ethermint should be zero (`MaxPriorityFeePerGas` JSON-RPC endpoint returns `0`). Have a look at [ADR 067](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/master/docs/architecture/adr-067-mempool-refactor.md) to read about future plans on transaction prioritization in the Cosmos SDK.

 ## Effective Gas price
 
-For EIP-1559 transactions (dynamic fee transactions) the effective gas price descibes the maximum gas price that a transaction is willing to provide. It is derived from the transaction arguments and the base fee parameter. Depending on which one is smaller, the effective gas price is either the `baseFee + tip` or the `gasFeeCap`
