Important nuance
Cardano calculates fees from size and execution requirements. Ethereum relies heavily on gas pricing and network demand. That usually makes Cardano easier to estimate for simple transfers.
- Lead with predictability.
- Avoid outdated dollar claims.
- Explain gas vs formula clearly.
- Add simple transfer examples.
Complex dApp activity can still cost more on Cardano because scripts consume resources, but the system remains more predictable than open fee auctions during congestion.
