can you remember what is the highest gas fee you’ve ever paid?
To be honest, the highest gas fees I ever paid was only around $40. I did it because it was quite urgent.
Before I would not even think of spending more than $20 for a fee even on Bitcoin I use a small fee and use the free accelerators or wait for it even if it takes a day, but just three months I spend $30 Ethereum for claiming my token it's urgent because the token is losing value because it's a pump and dump token it will go to zero value if I delayed claiming and trading it, I'm still waiting for the day where Ethereum fee will go back to its cheap fees.
