ETH will get to 5k soon. But will it solve issue with fees, no idea. I hope so because paying 2% to send 100 usd, is kind of expensive.
It looks like many haven't heard about EIP 1559 yet, the high gas fee won't exists anymore I believe, if you want to know more about this EIP-1559 you can go through this link over here
