  1. For Developers

Transaction Fees

Actions on Helios require Bitcoin transaction fees, including the gas fees on MIDL EVM. So developers must account for UTXO management and fees. However, because Helios batches actions, total fees are minimized(comparable to Ethereum mainnet for MIDL EVM gas fees). Still, for high-frequency actions (like liquidations), optimizing fee usage and timing will be a consideration.
