| 2100NEWS ranking: 125, Mid-cap Non Ethereum based Token, Index member: NWST1100, NWSM200, NWSTo100, NWSOT50, NWSDM100 |
GAS is a virtual currency which represents the right to use the blockchain. This coin is used to make payment for various systems on the blockchain. There are two built-in system assets, which are NEO and GAS. While NEO is described as the ownership of the blockchain, which is used for electoral accounting to obtain GAS dividends, GAS powers all transactions on the NEO system, similar to ETH does with Ethereum. However, NEO is a vital factor for mining/staking which accrues GAS. In other words, if users own NEO, they will get GAS.
