# 1.2 BNB/ETH Gas Fees

To ensure a smooth and hassle-free experience on the Electra platform, which operates on Binance Smart Chain (BSC) and Ethereum (ETH), you’ll need to have a small amount of BNB (for BSC) or ETH (for Ethereum) in your EVM wallet. These tokens are required for the following actions:

<br>

* Deposits and withdrawals: All deposit and withdrawal operations on Electra are executed via smart contracts. A minimal network fee (gas fee) is needed for these transactions, paid in BNB/ETH.
* Convenience: Electra is designed to provide fast and reliable transactions. With BNB/ETH, you can perform operations in just a few clicks without worrying about network speed or reliability.
* Minimal cost: The required fee is very small - even a balance of 0.01 - 0.02 BNB/ETH is sufficient for multiple transactions.
