To what extent will Casper affect transaction prices?
Seems like it wouldn't affect gas amounts, but that it would lower the gas prices, owing to the lower costs of operating the network.

Since the network is effectively free/very cheap to secure with Proof of Stake, miners (stakes) will not need as large of a reward for their participation.
