The Ethereum network also fluctuates its transaction fees, sometimes if it is in a state of congestion it makes it very difficult for me to tolerate the transaction fees.
But overall in my opinion it depends on how we want to use the network to make transactions, where indeed if it is under normal circumstances, using the bitcoin network and also ethereum is a good thing because it is not always expensive, it is back again the option to the needs of our activities in the blockchain network, we must be able to make the best use of it here, not selfish and not fanatical in plundering resources that can be maximized.
That is known and that is not really a hidden thing, it's something that every single person knows and OP wrote this anyway, he didn't do it because he didn't know, of course he knows that we can buy cheaper price coins, which is fine, I just think that we are going to end up with something that will not be all that easy to fool us, he thought he can fool us but he didn't realize that we were doing this way before he came along.
Bitcoin is trustworthy and that's why if you want to write some altcoin as good, do not compare it to bitcoin, or even ethereum, find another corner for yourself. If you compare any altcoin to bitcoin and even ethereum, people will judge that coin and will not invest into it because they will think that you are just making it up and not being real.
If you make a realistic approach, like how it has high TPS which is fast and it has a lot of meme projects and many other good parts about it and just promote that part then you could actually get something out of it and could find some investors. When they were talking about how SOL was cheaper and faster, they didn't get any high, but the moment they did open their chain for memes, they suddenly had so much increase, even TON had that with telegram stuff.
