maybe many people think that this ETH merger will make the gwei gas on transactions much lower as is the case with BNB which always stays at 5 gwei for transactions, this is what I expected and it didn't happen until the merger was successful a few hours ago, I was wrong the only one who believes that by merging transactions is much cheaper even though the gwei gas is not really lower than expected after the merger, but I congratulate ETH for successfully moving to the POS network, hope it can be cheaper in the future https://etherscan.io/gastracker

Sharding is what gets us there, which is the next major phase. Many people mixed that up. All the merge did was change the rewarding mechanism from POW to POS.

Sharding is what helps the standard user a lot. Because, as I recall, the ETH network can handle about 17 tx/second as it stands. Once sharding gets developed, which is probably I'd guess 2 years away, the tx/sec would increase from 17 to 100,000. And if you pair that with L2s, you can start to achieve a network that can handle institutional stuff / nation state stuff. Assuming the network is built out correctly. Because there is the mega fail of Solana which has their blockchain go "offline" whenever there's an issue. ETH can't have that happen or else it's a failed project, imo.

yes I know it has a process that may be a bit long and maybe go through a sharding process, at least I have also really seen cheap transaction fees every weekend so it makes it easier for me to transact, it seems the miners are throwing ETH so the price keeps going down every time
