I am not a technologist, let alone a programmer, just an investor and trader.
What do I need to know about Ethereum's high gas fees? I'm hearing some say that this could sink Ethereum. How exagerrated is that?
Lol, the Ethereum gas fee is expensive because the Ethereum network is congested. In fact, over congested due to the rise of Ethereum decentralized apps knows as "dapps" more especially Decentralized Finance "DeFi"
We currently live in the age of DeFi, they are on the rise! And 80% of DeFi platforms were built on Ethereum smart contracts, with huge instructions to execute and huge amount of people on them.
But once Ethereum Blockchain is fully migrated to the Proof of Stake consensus all these expensive fees and congestion would be over.
