In the context of ERC20 tokens, what occurs when the transfer amount requested is higher than the balance available in the sender's wallet?

    If the ERC20 transfer amount exceeds the available balance in the sender's wallet, the transaction will fail. This is because the blockchain network verifies the sender's balance before executing the transfer. The sender must have sufficient funds to cover the requested transfer amount, including any associated transaction fees. It is important for users to double-check their wallet balance before initiating a transfer to avoid failed transactions.

    When the ERC20 transfer amount is greater than the available balance, it's like trying to spend more money than you have in your bank account. The transaction won't go through because the sender doesn't have enough funds. So, it's always a good idea to check your wallet balance before attempting any transfers to ensure a successful transaction.
