ETH made me very Angry today

[Jaya60]

Everyone who works in cryptocurrency must work with a cool head. It is now seen that many people have given up trading on the Etherium platform out of anger due to the high Etherium transaction fees. So I would say such a transaction fee will not be there all the time but will definitely come down at some point  So since the transaction fee is higher, you can hold Etherium. Then it will be seen that you will not be harmed but you will be able to benefit.

Just wanna share this with you guys...maybe...just maybe it will help calm my nerves down

I found what i consider a gem today, so i was in a hurry to buy some before more people discover it and the price begins to go up, being an erc-20 token and only listed on uniswap and 1inch, i needed eth and i had zero eth on my wallet, fortunately, i had about $163 usd in my local bank account so i immediately took out $150 usd to buy some eth, after successfully buying eth from a centralized exchange, i quickly withdrew it to my trust wallet, the exchange took about $22 usd for Ethereum transfer fees so i was left with about $128 usd when the eth hit my trust wallet.

i quickly headed to uniswap to purchase my precious new found ticket to the moon, with my $128 usd in eth, i could have easily purchase about 2000 of the tokens but due to eth high fees, i brought it down to 1000 tokens so as to enable have some eth left for fees but surprisingly, when i clicked on swap, i was told that i don't have enough eth to cover the transaction fees, how much was the fees??? behold ! $87 usd, i was shocked, i didn't want to buy less than 1000 tokens so i decided to adjust the fees, after adjusting, i was able to bring the fee down to $42 usd, i was warned that my transaction might take a very long time before confirmation o might even be cancelled, i took my shot and clicked the submit button.

so the wait began ...

1 hour -- i was still waiting for a confirmation

3 hours -- i was still waiting for a confirmation

4 hours -- i was still waiting

5th hour came and some where in the middle of it, i got a notification from trust wallet that my transaction has been confirmed... i was happy, i quickly rushed to etherscan to view the transaction. lo and behold,, the transaction was confirmed but the token purchase didn't pull through, it returned an error saying like purchase wasn't successful due to low gas shit shit shit...WHAT THE F...KING HELL .. my $42 usd gone just like that HuhHuhHuh?? i was so fucking mad, in fact, if i knew where vitalik was, i would have called security men to have him arrested, i was devastated, i felt like crying, i was so mad at my wife and kid like its their fault,...it wasn't funny, out of $128 usd, i had just $86 usd left, i couldn't buy my precious ticket to the moon no more, its really a bad day for me today, i lost $150 usd just like that, that was all i had left in my local bank account, and now its gone all because of Ethereum high fees.

I have learned a lot from reading your post, but from the beautiful information you have given, it is clear that nowadays it is impossible to transact due to the high transaction fee of Etherium. Almost everyone is facing such problems.  But I personally would expect Ethereum's transaction fees to go down very quickly.  Due to the high transaction fee of Etherium, it has become impossible for everyone to transact.

Today it is really unprofitable to use the Ethereum platform and the uniswap exchanger for the sale and transfer of small amounts of funds. commissions are too high. I believe that this fact should be taken into account when making any transactions. I believe that the person originally had to use another cryptocurrency exchange, not uniswap.

I also have the problem in Ethereum but it is not about the time of the transaction. It is about the number of Ethereum that should be kept on MEW if we want to transfer an ERC20 token. I think it is a too big number of Ethereum, why we should keep Ethereum valued more than 10 dollars there. Also, I am a bit surprised with the number of transaction fees from MEW to exchanges. I think I spent too much Ethereum for gas fees.

The main proble of Ethereum is alway the same.
High gas fee, not transaction speed
Ethereum is very popular and has been integrated to many projects.
But If the ethereum dev didnt solve the gas fee problem, I think Ethereum will be leaved by many project, I agree with this prediction.

Yeah, many people frustrated about this problem, expensive gas fee.
I also lost alot, because can't do transaction when my coins pumped, because this problem.
It's annoyed.

I understand how you felt because I have felt the same way as well for the uncontrollable and exorbitant gas fees of Ethereum. There was a time that I am frustrated because my ERC20 token with big value didn’t arrive for hours, and I am scared that it will be lost forever. Good thing I have researched hard on Youtube about cancelling my transaction. I forgot about the exact video which was years ago, but it did helped and my ERC20 token reflected back to my wallet. I have no choice back then but to increase gas fees as recommended by the network that time and it finally went through to the exchange and successfully converted to USDT.

Not only you, I have the same problem.
High gas fee is always become our night mare,  We suffered.
I have loss because too late to sell my coins when pump because lack of gas fee.
Ethereum team also launched Ethereum 2.0, But didn't have good solution for this problem.
Why ? I don't know.
Better to wait or choose other smart contract platform.

The fee from the weak Ethereum made the Ethereum delivery confirmation stagnating and no validator wanted to send the coin because the fee was too cheap.
But if we send Ethereum with a high GAS fee, it will definitely be sent and approved by the Validator.
Simple for Ethereum transactions is to just increase your GAS fees so you don't get stuck!

it mean we must pay more , if we want our transaction will success.
I think the Ethereum team didn't have good solve  for high gas fee problem.
Better to leave this platform and starting to use alternate smart contract platform such as binance smart chain.
Faster and cheaper than ERC20.

[legend45]

Very expensive gas transaction of Ethereum always be good topic to discuss and many comments here.
Many investors disappointed to Ethereum team because didn't have solution for this.
Ethereum 2.0 has launcey, many people believed it wasn't complete yet.
I think It won't solve this problem too.

I'm sure Ethereum is really annoying right now because Ethereum always has very expensive GAS transaction fees and this has happened to various transactions that have been carried out by me on Metamask.
It's a shame but this is proof that Ethereum is really decentralized, anyone can send Ethereum coins expensively and cheaply but if it's cheap to approve the transaction it will take a very long time and result in failure.

I agree with your opinion about if it's cheap to approve the transaction it will take a very long time and result in failure.
Several times I have done at cheaper transaction and failed.
It's really annoying.
Ethereum dev should have good solution for gas fee problem, I also believe If it doesn't good solution, Ethereum will be leaved by many investors.

Not only you, many people also angry to Ethereum, because expensive transaction fee.
It's the classic problem that Ethereum developer didn't have good solution.
Although whales  are not suffering, But we as little investors will suffer.
Hopefully gas fee will go down soon.
