Returns the estimated fee for a given chain.
Fee estimation is integrated within the Transaction API and is not a standalone endpoint.When you send a transaction, the fee is automatically deducted from the sender's wallet.
How It Works?
It estimates the cost of sending a transaction, which can be either signed or unsigned. If unsigned, the estimation assumes the size of a single signature. The estimation includes:
- Bandwidth: The data size of the transaction.
- Energy: The computational resources needed if it's a smart contract transaction.
- Additional Fees: Any extra costs for specific contract types.
