Ethereum

transaction failed during contract execution but transaction fee which is about 60 dollars never comes back. is it stealing money or something else i dont understand?!

The experience sucks, but basically: the network charges you for the computation you requested and it doesn't care if that computation was useful, so you have to pay for the transaction even if it ends up erroring out.

Ideally, your wallet should be able to check that the computation you request doesn't result in an error, but some cases might be out of its hands (e.g., the price of the tokens you wanted to swap changes after you submitted the transaction)

It's not really nothing: nodes ran code, validators included the transaction. We also shouldn't ask the network to decide if a transaction is useful if we want permissionless systems. You wouldn't ask your internet provider for a refund because you didn't like anything on the internet this month, right?

so what is the solution? we should pay for them for doing nothing?
