    "gas_per_action": {"type": "int", "min": 0 },
    "fee_token": {"type": "str" },
    "max_gas_price": {"type": "int" },
    "conversion_rate": {"type": "list", "min_size": 2, "max_size": 2, "item_schema": {"type": "int", "min": 1} },
}

{% hint style="info" %}

{% endhint %}

* **conversion\_rate \[base\_token, fee\_token]:**
  * shows how many base chain tokens a user can get for the **fee\_token** amount
  * if the ***fee\_token*** is the actual base currency of the chain then the conversion rate will be **\[1,1]** 
  * otherwise -> **\[base\_token, fee\_token]**
