Want to transfer on the blockchain or call a contract? Then you need to pay Gas fees. What is this money used for? Simply put, it is a reward for miners or validation nodes, encouraging them to willingly include your transaction.



The Ethereum network prices Gas in Gwei, and the cost mainly depends on how congested the network is. During peak congestion, a single transfer might cost hundreds of dollars; during off-peak times, it might only be a few dollars. It's like highway tolls—when traffic is heavy, tolls go up; when traffic is light, they go down.

Recently, many people have been paying attention to the market trends of tokens like SOL, XRP, and ZEC. SOL is known for its low Gas fees, which is one reason it attracts many developers. XRP focuses on cross-border payments, while ZEC emphasizes privacy protection. Different blockchains have different features, so choosing which chain to transfer on depends on your needs and wallet depth.
SOL0,77%
XRP-2,13%
ZEC-4,43%

When the network is congested, a transfer of a few hundred yuan just waits patiently. Anyway, there's no rush. SOL is really awesome.

When the congestion happens, each transaction costs a few hundred yuan. I was directly discouraged. Is SOL good or not?

Damn, they're trying to harvest my gains again. ETH's gas fees are basically money grabbing. SOL is indeed attractive, cheap and satisfying. This market trend depends on whose wallet is more substantial.

Gas fees of hundreds of dollars during peak congestion truly discourage a bunch of small investors.

The gas fees are so outrageous that I switched to SOL a long time ago. ETH now is no different from a robbery.
