what do you think is the ethereum network still friendly or has it gotten really bad for new projects?
Mostly all new projects choose Polygon, Binance smart chain, tron, avalanche now because of huge fees on Ethereum. Nevertheless, people who have big capitals still work on this chain as they don't run small transaction there, so fees are not so big for them. Many projects that were initially launched on ethereum, are becoming multi-chain now as small investors switch to cheaper alternatives.
