Base Gas Fee Components
Base gas fees consist of two components: the L2 execution fee (paid to Base sequencer) and the L1 data fee (paid to Ethereum for data availability). The L2 fee is extremely low (sub-cent), while the L1 fee varies with Ethereum gas prices. Most users only notice the combined fee, which remains 10-100x cheaper than Ethereum mainnet.
