Here are results of my test:

#define BLYNK_HEARTBEAT 120
#define PARTICLE_KEEPALIVE 60

And (once per minute):
 Blynk.virtualWrite(V2, millis() / 60000L);

After 12 hours, our local Cellular provider reports 0.41 Mb of data usage. I use a 3-rd party sim, which I pay around $1.2 per month, and it includes 10Mb per day + Voice Call and SMS plans. I consider this kind of charges completely adequate.
