Title: Gas fee on ethereum
Post by: Daiana on April 04, 2024, 11:08:01 PM
I was about to do a transaction and the gas fee was very high! Any advice on how to get the lowest gas fees? I have looked at the heatmap, and I can see that at certain times and days, it's a bit lower. Any advice for a newbie? 

Thanks!!

I faced this issue through out last month because I had some USDT in my wallet but it was an ETH-chain USDT which requires me to have some ETH to spend as gas fee. First, I bought some Ethereum on the MEXC exchange because they had some low fee of withdrawal and a little amount as minimum withdrawal limit.

After I withdraw to my wallet, I tried to swap the USDT to ETH but I got charged $9 worth of ETH meanwhile the USDt faild to swap. After Iost $9 due to the fail swap, I was only left with $5 worth of Ethereum which was very small compare to the required gas fee to carry out the transaction.

First what I did then was to wait till early morning, once it's around 1AM-5AM gas fee usually reduces, although not all time, so you can try carrying out your withdrawal around early hours of the day.

Second suggestion is that, some wallet usually have a high transaction fee compare to other wallet, so I would suggest for you to download Metamask, import your wallet there and try using it to withdraw your coin. The wallet usually have a low fee and you can modify the fee to your choice.

It was this two method that helped me to finally move out my USDT from my wallet.

According to this site (https://etherscan.io/gastracker), one can send ETH with just $.78 as of 4/7/24 which is kind of low compared to what I paid days ago which amounted to almost $3...quite so high in my own standard. Indeed, there are days when the gas fee can be low but there are also many days when they can be shockingly high...especially if you compared the rate if one will be using other blockchains like BNB. Now, if you compared it to BTC, I think ETH will still be a winner because as of Apr 05 2024 the average transaction fee is $4.016 (https://ycharts.com/indicators/bitcoin_average_transaction_fee) and for now there is nothing we can do about it except if you are in an exchange because you can convert your ETH or BTC to other asset and send the same somewhere else and then convert again to ETH or BTC.

Yes, you are right, at certain times the gas fees for making transactions will be low when not many people are using the network you are using. However, when the network conditions are busy with transactions, it will make us think again about making transactions because usually it will charge transaction fees. which is quite expensive as you have experienced.

Get a wallet which let's you customize fees,  such as metamask

Use gas tracker to get the lowest price per gwei
http://etherscan.io/gastracker

Use customized fee  or the lowest recommended.

You can read about ethereum fees here

The average gas fee for the Ethereum network this time is between 16 - 20n gwei. And this ranges between $1 to $1.5. So, actually, it is quite affordable as tu maosh is under 20gwei. Usually, sometimes up to hundreds of gwei and this happens at bearish times at that time. Whatever it is and whatever it is at that time, there really is no other choice but to transfer it. But yes, sometimes it's really stressful looking at the fees.

but now it's different. Even though the market is quite up, the Etheruem network fees are still quite affordable. What's more, it's very easy to use. It's just that nowadays there are a lot of competitors. so the Etheruem network must be able to start anticipating it.

I thought that eth solves this high fees already due to transitioning to PoS? But it looks like it doesn't help at all. Fees are still usually very high.

Anyway, you can follow what bitmover suggested above. There are many wallets that offers cuztomizable fees.

The high cost of a transaction in the ethereum network is the biggest pain of this blockchain, but transactions do not always cost 20-30 dollars, sometimes you can transfer ethereum tokens for 1 dollar, although this is not considered cheap, but quite normally, you can pay attention to the fact that at certain times of the day or when there are some very large purchases of the ether network, the cost rises if you urgently need to buy or sell something, you will do it anyway. And if you want to transfer ether tokens within a day or two, then go to the etherscan below, I’ll send it to you link.

how I wish that this already solved the problem but it doesnt , instead fees are still high in certain time like these week , because I have use Ethereum coupleof weeks ago but did not face this high fee so i think now that the network is congested same reason why the fee increased this high.

Using a good wallet will let you pay the minimum fee possible. It won't solve ethereum network scalability problem...

You can use layer 2 for that. Optimism,  arbitrum, matic, etc..

Use the electrum fee tracker as already mentioned will help including the kind of wallet you're using which may permit for making adjustment on any fee, however we must never forget that we may likely not to see the Ethereum network fee as the same as we have in other networks like bitcoin and TRON network, which also indicated that no matter how low you have it with Ethereum network, it may not be as low compared to other networks.

You don't need to change anything on your wallet, but if you use MEW and Enkrypt, there is an option to change during the transaction, 4 variants are possible, choose the one that suits you. If not, it means that you have to wait for the price of gas to decrease. You can follow it on the CoinTool website.

The wallet does not reduce fees, but some wallets have better estimates of fees than other wallets, so if you use a wallet like this, the estimate will be better.
NEW WALLET have a better estimates than MM

For MetaMask, there are no specific settings to reduce the fees, only when sending the transaction. You can determine the fees by specifying the gwei value of the Ethereum fee gas. The lower this value is, the lower the fees will be.

But of course, you must be aware that reducing these fees will lead to a decrease in speed or an increase in the transaction time, which may take a long time if the fees are very low.

It is surprising to see fees on ethereum are currently lower than on bitcoin, maybe because same people who are messing around with nft and runes now moved from ethereum to bitcoin.
If you plan to move around some tokens and stable coins and make transactions on ethereum blockchain than this is the right time to do it.

Just as cryptocurrency coin prices fluctuate, Ethereum transaction gas fees also do. Sometimes it's high, sometimes it's low, but because of the dense activity on the Ethereum Blockchain, many people increase transaction fees so that their activity is quickly confirmed. 
This is why Gas prices on the Ethereum network continue to be high, there is no other way to get cheap Gas fees except to wait for them to go down. 
But sometimes it takes a very long time!

Those bitcoin fees won't last long. They are not sustainable... once those ordinals shit stop,fees will be sub 30 satvB again

The question is when, although the devs have planned about that, but i find nothing about the dates. I would better it could be done sooner or else we will soar this huge fees for several days, it's worst.

I think this is not just devs dependant.

Even without any update in bitcoin protocol, these people just ran out of money in the past. We had seen spikes of 500 sat/vB before, and after a few weeks things were back to 30sat vB. Fees are already coming down again.

But I agree that we should have some update in the protocol to avoid this secondary usage of the blockchain.

I don't think the Bitcoin miner community would agree to the removal of the Inscription update as it could be a useful feature in the future and it is providing them with income after the block reward has been halved. The same thing happened in the block size war in 2017: the community chose the path that would benefit overall development, including the long-term interests of miners.

Regarding Ethereum: Layer-2 has become a fairly effective solution but it will not replace Ethereum Layer-1. It's a shame that sharding was removed, we don't have any information about the next update to improve Layer-1 speed, so Layer-1 transaction fees will continue to rise during bullruns. Currently, the cost of transferring ETH is acceptable, around 8-10 gwei ~ $0.5 - 0.7, but swap fees are still quite expensive compared to other blockchains. All users can do is switch to using Layer-2 like Arbitrum or Base 8)

It's not just ordinals that are creating very high fees, and 30 satvB is not exactly low fees either.
I think miners will try to increase their profit with higher fees, and there is clearly ''someone'' with money printing machine who can always spam the network.
Recently there was similar spam attack for monero, so it's not only happening with bitcoin.

Transaction fees after the halving occurred increased very sharply, this is indeed a fairly high increase in gas fees throughout the history of bitcoin. But as time goes by, gas costs have started to fall gradually.

If you haven’t noticed, this thread is not about Bitcoin at all, we are talking about Ethereum here and about what kind of transactions there are in Ethereum, they are in Bitcoin, even though you are right that on Bitcoin now there are very expensive commissions, I advise you to write about this next time, rarely about Bitcoin .

Yes, it's true that this thread discusses Ethereum, but perhaps what is meant is that the movement of gas fees depends on price movements and bitcoin transaction conditions. As long as Bitcoin has high enough gas fees, it will make many traders carry out transactions using altcoins, including Ethereum, so it will create gas fees. Ethereum is increasing as well because transactions on the Ethereum network are becoming congested.

The gas fee will always change in size, depending on the current condition of the network. By default, the number of devices that must be purchased for transfer can be checked on the following site:
https://etherscan.io/gastracker

That's about 11 gwei at the moment and maybe we could say that it's quite small. But yes, we do have to regularly check the gas tracker so we know when the estimated gas fee will go down, it won't be that high anymore. Because it really depends on the crowd level of the network.

But in fact, the amount of gas fees on the Ethereum network is currently not as high as before. And currently, it is Bitcoin transfer fees that are increasing like crazy and very drastically.

Currently, ethereum gas has dropped to 6 Gwei and this is a fairly low transaction fee for ethereum. Maybe because market conditions are not good, this ultimately reduces ethereum transactions and makes ethereum transaction fees as cheap as they are now.

High transaction cost is a major problem for ethereum transaction. Sometimes it is high and sometimes it is low. You have to check from time to time when the transaction cost is low you can execute the transaction. I always do the same thing.

This issue has been around for a long time, the most criticized in the Ethereum market and the most complained about by investors is its excessive transaction fees. A few years ago Ethereum thought of bringing their new technology to the market to eliminate this problem of excessive transaction fees but so far they have not succeeded in bringing their new technology to the market. They are working on Ethereum 2.0 technology till now and so far they have not succeeded in their work. If this technology succeeds in the market, hopefully there won't be the complaints we have about Ethereum.

Do it on weekends.

Currently, it's Saturday here in our country, and I tried to make a transaction on Ethereum Network and the gas fees when I did it is only $8. I did say the word "ONLY" because most of the time especially in the weekdays, the transaction fees on Ethereum can go to as high as $50. For now, that's the best thing that you can do if you want to make a transaction under Ethereum Network, but in general, gas fee on Ethereum is very high especially for an average investor compared to other L2's out there like Polygon, Arbitrum, etc.

My suggestion is that, as much as possible, don't make a transaction on Ethereum network if you are only transferring a few bucks or even a hundred bucks.

Unfortunately, over time, Ethereum has not made improvements to its network, so currently the Ethereum network has a weakness in that transaction fees are quite expensive, even though Ethereum's network security is good, there are still weaknesses that other people take advantage of to create new networks.

You can check out the gwei here https://etherscan.io/gastracker
Now the Ethereum network fee is cheaper but cannot be compared to the layer 2 network because it is different but at least with the current low gwei it is what many people expect as Ethereum users who often make transactions.

In the past when making bridge transactions it cost a lot of money but for now it is not more than $10 or even below, but for me this is already quite low.

But what we are trying to establish here? is that why not have at least a normal fee instead of growing high and low? because if we are in a hurry sending but the fee is too much ? then how can we use ethereum right away.
in this matter people are changing their use for other altcoins .

A big investor or a medium investor while investing does not think so much about when they will sell their investment but they definitely think about which platform they are investing in.  Generally, users on the Ethereum platform find it a hassle to transfer Ethereum because the transaction fees of Ethereum are the highest at all times. Since Ethereum has yet to solve this problem, their complaints will continue to come.

Ethereum transaction fee is known to be high in general, even if you're not sending Ethereum coin itself but involves the use of any other coin on the Ethereum network, you are expected to pay a more higher transaction fee, we should know this as a common attributes for the use the of network, and before initiating any transaction, we should first consider the cost for making it if it can be affordable by us or not.

When Ethereum transaction fees increase, this has become a natural thing when many people use Ethereum to send money, this will make the network increasingly busy and ultimately require gas fees that are more expensive than usual.

There is no solution for this, just check diligently, in my opinion, because the gas fee will have time to be cheap, in my experience, it's cheap here, not like before, which was only 0.xx $, but at least it's cheaper than usual

Of course, for awhile, I felt like I was married to the heat map and checking in on it every 5 minutes! I was able to do the transaction at a decent rate in the end. The first price I had was 100 dollars and it went down to 18 dollars.

Generally, during the weekend between Friday to Sunday, there used to be a decline in most blockchain with high fees price, they reduce during the weekend because less people tend to use the network during the weekend, I think that's why you were able to execute the transaction but I was surprised when you said you first $100 unless it's a smart contract transaction and not wallet to wallet address transaction or either it might be a bump in transaction as a result of spam, weekend transactions fees aren't always that high.

The transaction fee of ETH was very low before but when the price of ETH increased then the transaction fee of ETH also increased since then many people started using BSC chain.  ETH's high gas fee gives the bsc, tron, sol, polygon network a great opportunity to become popular. If ETH's gas fee didn't increase so much, maybe other chains wouldn't be so popular. This is a big problem for small transactions. Because if a large fee is charged for completing small transactions, it makes the users unhappy.

Generally, during the weekend between Friday to Sunday, there used to be a decline in most blockchain with high fees price, they reduce during the weekend because less people tend to use the network during the weekend, I think that's why you were able to execute the transaction but I was surprised when you said you first $100 unless it's a smart contract transaction and not wallet to wallet address transaction or either it might be a bump in transaction as a result of spam, weekend transactions fees aren't always that high.

Yes sorry, maybe I should have specified that I wanted to lock some dai into the DSR so that transaction is a smart contract. And the 100 dollar was a random weekday when I wasn't aware of the big difference in gas price..

Depends on the place you are making the transaction. Is it in exchange or on chain wallets? For now Ethereum transaction gas fee is high so I advise you to wait for some months to see if the gas fee will reduce. And you should not in hurry to sell your coins because Ethereum will rise again. So if you sell your Ethereum now, your will be the loser of the altcoin investment.

High transaction cost is a major problem for ethereum transaction. Sometimes it is high and sometimes it is low. You have to check from time to time when the transaction cost is low you can execute the transaction. I always do the same thing.
The transaction fee of ETH was very low before but when the price of ETH increased then the transaction fee of ETH also increased since then many people started using BSC chain.  ETH's high gas fee gives the bsc, tron, sol, polygon network a great opportunity to become popular. If ETH's gas fee didn't increase so much, maybe other chains wouldn't be so popular. This is a big problem for small transactions. Because if a large fee is charged for completing small transactions, it makes the users unhappy.
Recently i saw eth network gass fees are very low. I think it will be continue. We know eth network gass fees are very high from long time. So many people avoid it but if from now gass fees continue low then people again choice ethereum. And i think this low fess will continue otherwise Ethereum will lose his goodwill again.

I was about to do a transaction and the gas fee was very high! Any advice on how to get the lowest gas fees? I have looked at the heatmap, and I can see that at certain times and days, it's a bit lower. Any advice for a newbie? 
Thanks!!

The best advice for a beginner is simply not to use this blockchain for normal purposes (transfer money from point a to point b)
All cryptans use it only for the most extreme situations and very rarely, it seems to exist (the ether network) and it doesn’t exist because no one wants to look and guess the cost of transactions.

Gas fee on ETH is very high but i hope soon when the market go high that time the ETH fee is going to be low becasue that time the transactions limit is high and the ETH fee will low at that time. ETH is the best coin and this is the king of all ALT coins in the crypto market. Crypto market is the world best market and the future of the ETH coin is very good and best.

Currently the fuel costs for making transactions on Ethereum have started to fall, you can see it https://etherscan.io/gastracker.
If you have assets to claim or want to send money using the Ethereum network then now is the right time because gas fees are falling.

It depends for what purpose you need this blockchain to understand what blockchain means for a beginner. I would advise you to start learning by installing a metamask wallet, on which you can hold dozens of different blockchains, which one you need is up to you.

Yes I've got metamask now. It seems to be one of the top wallets for being accepted in many platforms but also being userfriendly!

It’s absolutely true that the metamask wallet is accepted on all existing exchanges and almost all the most popular blockchains are listed in it. If you can figure out this wallet, then you will not have problems like dealing with any other blockchain, since in this wallet any other blockchain is made exactly the same and they similar to each other.

Yep eth is not good for movement of coins and or tokens. Solana is far cheaper.

We are watching the beginning of eth dying off due to its excessive fee issues.

That's right, by using the Solana network or using the BSC network, we can carry out token trading transactions at lower costs than Ethereum. We just need to wait for Ethereum to get out of its comfort zone and start improving itself so that it still has fans.

If the transfer fees of Ethereum network is expensive, we have some alternatives. Tron, Solana, BSC are 3 networks with cheap transfer fees. I often used these networks if I want to send my coins. For the coins on Binance exchange, I always use BSC network if I want to send my coins to local exchange. I see it is 0 fees when I send my USDT in Binance account to Tokocrypto wallet. This is very helpful because these exchanges have the same cloud.

It's true that we can use other networks to carry out digital currency transactions according to what we want, Tokocrypto and Binance are platforms that work together, Binance is the parent of Tokocrypto, so it is natural that sending between exchange places does not require fees because it is certain will go into their internal system.

I recently started using the opbmb blockchain and was very surprised at how very cheap it is, about 1,000 transactions cost around a dollar, it’s very cheap, it’s possible that Ethereum will also be introduced into the network, it looks like a mirror one for the blockchain will be much cheaper to use.

I think we have waited too long, the problem of high gas fees of ethereum has been going on for a long time and the ethereum team does not have a solution for this problem. We can only switch to other networks like Solana, BSC, TRON etc.

Currently, ethereum gas still applies on a non-permanent basis, sometimes it is expensive but often enough to pay a fee of around 1$ when sending coins or claiming coins with the ETH network.
Yesterday, I spent around $1,2 for claiming reward from Meson coins with ERC20 network and taking around under $1 for sending that coins to exchange wallet. I think its more lower gas fees of Ethereum with usually taking more than $10 for claiming coins and around $3 to $6 for sending coins. Have been last several days gas fees around 6 GWEI and its good chance for any one has ERC20 coins sending to market by spending lower fees transaction.

On May 11, gas fees on the Ethereum blockchain dropped to 6 Gwei - the last time such values were seen in January 2020. After the launch of the Dencun hardfork, the network continues to be inflationary. Over the past 24 hours, 716 ETH has been burned and 2,526 ETH has been issued. The coin's exchange rate is showing weakness, trading at $2900.

Seems people are getting to use more Layer2 networks and other blockchain like Solana and TON more these days and these has reduce both congestions and gas fee on Ethereum network. Another memecoin $Notcoin, trending on twitter and currently on Bitget pre-market is on TON network. This has called people's attention to other networks. Also, memecoins on base network and SOL are trending more than ETH networks memecoins.
