Where $len(x)$ returns the number of bytes in $x$. For technical reasons that is related to attempting to price in history and state storage costs, the bytes in signatures of transactions are priced more cheaply than the non-signature data in transactions. In Ethereum, there is a measure called ``gas'' which incorporates the size of the block as well as the computational cost of verifying transactions and executing smart contract code. For simplicity of exposition, this can be approximated as:
