# Gas

DuckChain uses native **TON** as its gas token for transaction costs. TON on DuckChain has **18 decimals**, different from the 9-decimal precision on The Open Network to align with EVM-compatible chains' standards.

### **How to Get Gas Token** <a href="#how-to-get-gas-token" id="how-to-get-gas-token"></a>

* **Testnet**: Click <https://t.me/Duckchain_Testnet_Faucet_bot> to get Testnet gas.
* **Mainnet**: Bridge TON via the DuckChain official bridge or swap for TON as gas.

### **Gas Price** <a href="#gas-price" id="gas-price"></a>

The minimum allowable **Gas Price** for nodes on DuckChain is **0.1 Gwei(Testnet)/10 Gwei(Mainnet)**. Transactions with gas prices below this threshold will be automatically rejected.
