I'm considering unwrapping my ETH and I'm wondering if this process incurs any gas costs. I'm trying to understand the economics behind the transaction before I proceed. Does unwrapping ETH cost gas?

These gas fees are incurred to cover the cost of completing the transaction.

When exchanging a wrapped token for an unwrapped one, the process is on a one-to-one basis.

However, due to the gas fees, the amount of ETH received after unwrapping will not be the same as the original amount of WETH.
