The gas tokens are used to pay for the transactions on the Neo blockchain. Last year, an event caused a surge in the GAS price by up to 300%.

The cryptocurrency market is in a bullish trend and it is pulling underlooked tokens like the GAS. The GAS price is up 11% in the past 48 hours and bulls are looking to break past a significant level.

Gas Tokens

Cryptocurrency users pay fees to process transactions on the blockchain. One type of cryptocurrency that is used to pay for fees on the Neo blockchain is gas tokens.

Gas tokens are used to pay for network usage, including executing smart contracts. Neo is a digital platform centered on China that aims to become the foundation of the emerging digital economy. By using smart contracts, it offers a range of use cases, such as secure digital identities and digital assets.

Gas Tokens Price Buzz in the End of 2023

In an unexpected turn of events, GAS price went from $5.2 to an impressive $28.8 in just one week, marking a significant 300% increase. This surge created a buzz around the coin, almost like a market euphoria.

The reason for this surge is mainly due to the GAS/KRW pair on the Upbit exchange, a significant player in South Korea.

Lookonchain posted the tweet which caught 172k attention

Upbit is responsible for 61% of the trading volume for GAS pairs, making it a significant contributor to this unexpected rally. Interestingly, GAS price on Upbit is 1.1% higher than on Binance.

The Neo Chain and The Gas Tokens

The Gas token uses the NEO chain, also known as “Chinese Ethereum.” NEO holders automatically earn GAS by holding the token in a Neo wallet, and the token also provides management rights, such as account reconciliation and network parameter changes.

The platform’s primary goal is to make physical and digital assets accessible to humans through permissionless programs, allowing developers to automate and digitize asset management using smart contracts.

The platform also offers various infrastructure options for the user, such as decentralized storage, one-block finality, oracles, NEOFS, Poly Network, Neo Name Service, and Neo ID.

Decentralized storage refers to a network of operators who share data to strengthen the>Summary

GAS runs on the NEO chain. Its price surged 300% from $$5.2 to $28.8 in a week, causing market euphoria. NEO holders earn GAS by holding the token in a wallet and also get management rights.
