 - On the other hand, transactions have to be processed which requires valuable CPU power. So, an amount named `tx_gas_fee` of [`/config`](/config) is deducted from the user on every transaction proposal to cover the cost.
 - Don't worry if your transaction goes unaccepted! Transactions do not disappear until they are committed into the ledger with a block.
 - Every transaction has a unique ID generated using the `source`, `target` and `timestamp` fields.
