Gas War refers to a situation where multiple users compete to execute a transaction on a blockchain network by offering higher transaction fees, known as gas fees. This competition typically occurs during times of network congestion when the number of transactions exceeds the capacity the network can process.When users want their transactions to be prioritized, they increase the gas fee they are willing to pay. As more participants join the competition, gas fees can escalate significantly, leading to much higher costs for users wishing to complete their transactions quickly.Gas Wars can negatively impact user experience, as individuals may have to pay excessive fees or experience delays in their transactions being confirmed. This phenomenon highlights the challenges of scalability and transaction costs within blockchain ecosystems, particularly during periods of high demand. Ultimately, gas wars illustrate how market dynamics can influence fee structures and transaction processing on decentralized networks.
