If the increase in gas costs is due to the increase in ethereum prices, in my opinion, it is not quite right. For example, during 2017-2018, when ethereum prices were almost the same as current Gwei gas, they were still very low compared to today.
Yes, I also sometimes feel surprised at the Gwei problem because in the 2017-2018 period the Ethereum price was not much different from the current one even though in 2017-2018 the Ethereum price did not last long at a high price, but the Gwei fee was also not too expensive like now.
