...the reality is that most altcoins such as ETH have a worse scaling problem than bitcoin. in fact it is at least 60 times worse and yet they lied about it and the creator Vitalik Buterin claimed once that ETH fees will never ever go above 1 cent!!!

This is the main reason why I made this post. There are many people who don't check first before making a conclusion that it's expensive. You can use tools such as

But you did not pay attention to Ripple (XRP)?
I would have included if it was more expensive. The title of the topic says "lower".
