Really though, what is gas?

You need some gas or you arent going anywhere. Gas is the fuel that drives your transactions. Whether on the Binance Smart Chain (like Cookie Finance 🍪) or other networks such as Ethereum there is always a native token that drives your transactions. For Binance Smart Chain, we have BNB, the native token for the Binance network. It’s important to keep some BNB in your Metamask wallet to drive your transactions on the network.
