“Its USD gas estimates are off by orders of magnitude”

I used Tempo Gas Estimator through MPP on July 19, 2026 to estimate common transfer and contract-call costs on the live Tempo chain.

The live quote was $0.005, the wallet delta was $0.00504, and the 652-byte result arrived in 1,575 ms. It returned a current block number and gas price, but its USD conversion was plainly unusable:

{
  "gas_price_wei": "600000000",
  "transfer_to_existing": {
    "gas_units": "100000",
    "cost_wei": "60000000000000",
    "cost_usd_approx": "60000000.000000"
  }
}

The service claims a simple Tempo transfer costs approximately $60 million and a complex call costs $300 million. Those figures appear to treat base units as whole dollars instead of applying token decimals. Because USD cost is the product's core promised output, this is a severe correctness failure despite the successful payment and fast response.
