Ethereum Gas Price is 1 ETH to send 0.15 ETH

Is is because I'm using the Light Client to sync with the network? Cheapest fee is 0.2 ETH

Quite a strange situation, when I used the usual web version of MyEtherWallet, I never watched it, apparently you were at a time when the etherium transactions were seriously downloaded, so they requested such a large payment, but this was not in my life

1 Ether for gas. Seems reasonable

The Ethereum network is a little congested, but not 1 ETH gas congested. Check out https://ethgasstation.info/ for more accurate fee predictions.

I'm using the light client and it only has 1 peer connected. I've not used this before. Could this be the reason?

*I guess I'll just have to wait on my full node to download. Will probably take several weeks at the 1GB/day rate it's been going. Maybe I'll make some while I hold.

thats weird lol. i send 1 eth to my other wallet. only 0.001eth was for gas. 40gwei and it only take less than a minute. 1 eth transaction fee is just plain robbery.

I've never seen that type of fee before.  If that's a regular occurrence then I'd move to MEW or something else.  I just sent ETH yesterday and the fee was quite minimal.

This is not the best time for traders these fees are extraordinary and outrageously high. I think Ethereum should do something about it. The time taken for any  transaction to complete is another hell.

[riyellevo]

just use MEW dude,that's funny that the fee even more expensive than coinbase fee for btc lol

And yet I think that it was a mistake, I see many people think that it just can not be, well, or as I said earlier, you just fell into the peak of user activity, and it just can not be. 1ETH is an unthinkable commission

So, after the altcoins dropped. Are Ethereum Gas Price dropped too?. Yesterday is the the peakest time for Ethereum
