Fee Model

Overview​

This document describes the fee model, gas pricing, and economic incentives in Savitri Network.

Gas Model​

Gas Concept​

Gas is a unit measuring computational cost. Every operation consumes gas, and transactions include a gas limit and gas price.

Gas Costs​

Base Costs​

  • Transaction: 21,000 gas
  • Contract Creation: 32,000 gas
  • Zero-byte Data: 4 gas per byte
  • Non-zero-byte Data: 16 gas per byte

Operation Costs​

  • ADD/SUB: 3 gas
  • MUL: 5 gas
  • DIV: 5 gas
  • SLOAD: 200 gas
  • SSTORE: 20,000 gas (new), 5,000 gas (update)

Gas Calculation​

total_gas = base_gas + data_gas + execution_gas
fee = total_gas × gas_price

Fee Structure​

Transaction Fee​

transaction_fee = gas_used × gas_price

Fee Distribution​

Proposer Reward​

proposer_reward = transaction_fee × 0.4

Voter Rewards​

voter_reward = (transaction_fee × 0.6) / num_voters

Adaptive Fee Model​

Dynamic Gas Price​

Gas price adjusts based on network demand:

base_gas_price = base_price
demand_factor = recent_blocks_gas_used / target_gas_used
adjusted_gas_price = base_gas_price × demand_factor

Priority Scoring​

Transactions prioritized by:

priority_score = (gas_price × gas_limit) / transaction_age

Economic Incentives​

Validator Incentives​

  • Transaction fees
  • Block rewards
  • Performance bonuses

User Incentives​

  • Predictable fees
  • Fast confirmation
  • Reliable service

The fee model balances network sustainability with user accessibility.
