Context cache price is too high - $4.50 / 1 million tokens per hour (storage)

I was very happy with Gemini Context caching, but hadn’t looked at the hourly storage price yet.
I realized that in my case it wasn’t worth it, it would be more expensive.

Hi @Ana,
The Context caching price is for number tokens cached and context caching (storage) is for the time period for the tokens stored in the cache.

Also the current pricing has been decreased to $1.00 / 1,000,000 tokens per hour for Context caching (storage). Please refer the documentation for the reference.

Thank you!
