  When you see the 'insufficient funds for gas' error message in Metamask, it means that you don't have enough cryptocurrency in your wallet to cover the transaction fee, also known as gas. Gas is required to process and validate transactions on the Ethereum network. To resolve this issue, you can try adding more cryptocurrency to your Metamask wallet. Make sure you have enough balance to cover both the transaction amount and the gas fee. If you're still facing the same problem, you can try lowering the gas price or increasing the gas limit for your transaction. Keep in mind that lowering the gas price may result in slower transaction confirmation, while increasing the gas limit may require more funds. It's important to find the right balance that suits your needs.
