What do you think about the recent Ethereum upgrade? Is it good or bad?

[zasad@]

Lately, the Ethereum community of users including "me" is rejoicing and boosting that the Ethereum v2.0 London upgrade will be a game-changer, particularly the EIP-1559 implementation, But in a few days later, many are wondering why the Ethereum gas fees were still high, despite the upgrade was done already, some users are saying that Eth developers are just giving false hope, while other also saying that it's not working the way we are expected, in the time of writing the average gas price is $7.74(43 gwei) and for me, it was still high compare to BSC, Polygon and other Layer 2 chain.

And who told you that after the London hard fork, commissions will decrease. The more demand on the Ethereum network for transactions, the higher the base commission that is burned.
The rest, referred to as Tips for Miners, can drive up the cost of transactions during times of demand.
The London hard fork is just the first stepping stone to scalability, not a cheap commission solution.
Sharding is still a long way off.

The recent upgrade obviously showed a good outcome as the price of Ethereum gets back to $3k once again. As the hard fork takes place, it can be seen that there has been a significant change on ETHs price. Even though it does not make so much difference for those who have been investing on Ethereum for a long time, the impact of the burning exhibited a positive effect towards the coin. Ethereum is one of the altcoins that has the potential of surviving in the future as a successful crypto so we should pay attention on it right now while the price is still not that high.

To soon to judge the price because the price will increase because of the new hype from a update. In a couple of months we will be in a better place to look if it was positive or not for the price.

I think it's a good update, every update is for the betterment of the project not the opposite maybe there's some negative impact but most likely it's for resolving previous issues that it has from before, for me I think the recent upgrade of the Ethereum is good and well it pumps so it's really a good investment too.

That's a wrong way of thinking about software development. It's not every update that has a positive effect on the systems these updates are implemented on. It just depends on the updates. Some might break the system, make just minor enhancements here and there, etc. That's what I think about the London hard fork. It just brought changes and it's not too noticeable especially for smaller users.

The ETH market right now is saying the answer and it's fully positive to say that their upgrade was successful and it pushed another increase in the price of ETH these recent days. But their problem still exists about their gas price because their competitor already fixed this problem a long time ago. If you look at Kardia chain and BSC, they don't increase up to that high gas fees as we see in the Ethereum network.

It's not about the price. ETH has been ultra bullish before and after the hard fork.

Isn't this a good thing?
Moreover, there was a price increase after the upgrade.
So the Ethereum price also soared and at this time still survived at a pretty good rate.
This might be one reason that the increase in the ethereum is arguably because of these factors.

I think most of us here as ordinary Eth users are also disappointed with the result, even sending Eth now has become expensive, unlike before that only those ERC20 token has that problem but today sending Eth will cost you more than $5-7 dollars in average depending on the amount and value of Eth that you send, IMO, this is crazy unsustainable Eth become worst, I'm sure it will bring negative effect on Ethereum if the problem will not address properly.
 
My opinion is the London upgrade has not solved the expensive fee problem instead they make it more worst because after the upgrade sending Eth has also become expensive unlike before.

as a small player the gas fee really tortures me even 1 year I can count how many times I use erc20 for transactions.  This is since the fee very high.  For big players it may not too much of a problem because it is covered by their profit.  But that doesn't mean the upgrade at this time isn't good, it's just that what people want has not been resolved

Ethereum's new upgrade seems worthless to me. Because a few days ago ETH transaction fee was 5 gwei. But now it is not going down below 40 gwei. Where the transaction fee of BSC network is 0.04 usd which is much less than ETH. So we want to see that the ETH transaction fee has come down, not the promise.

There are lots of activities in ethereum network and that was also contributing a lot to the increase of ethereum fees. There are a lot of factors that were making it to happen. It's not only caused by the update.
You must also see the traffic in the network. As per the price increases that happens with ethereum and this is also making people to actively using this protocol again.

I also find 8$ for a transaction to be a very high price. As on polygon I pay less than 1 cent, so I can make many transactions a day and don’t care that my profit may not compensate expenses on transactions. People with small capitals can’t use Ethereum so we run to other blockchains like Binance Smart Chain and Polygon. Nevertheless, I do hope that Ethereum 2.0. will change something.

So far it really looks like the last Eth Update did really have no impact at all on the transaction fees. A few hours ago we even saw gas prices of over 1000 gwei. We did not see such high numbers for at least a few weeks now if i remember correctly. So in that regard i am really disappointed with the last eth upgrade. I also want to say though that, this was only one Update on the way to Eth 2.0 and therefore hopefully low transaction fees. So i still feel pretty comfortable, that we see low transaction fees pretty soon.

Yes, those who thought that after the London hard fork we will immediately see a significant reduction in transaction fees on the ethereum network, they are wrong. This hard fork does not directly address the reduction in transaction fees, although it may indirectly affect this process. For now, further updates to the ethereum network are to be expected. Transaction fees on this network are bound to bounce back.

I think ethurm not bad is this true Now ethereum have a more price so invest in this situation may b risky if want to hold ethereum for future buy in dip with parts statergy then we can get a great benefit from ethereum in future
