Why is gas fee so high?

[tintin16]

as we know now the gas fee to send of a token is very high. what will be the reason?

they says that the etherium blockchain is congested.

You pretty much answered your own question, It is congested. Until Eth updates with it's new solutions in the next few months, this will probably be the price you will have to pay.

they says that the etherium blockchain is congested.

Yes, this is the very reason why gas fee's high.

You may now close this thread, at left bottom theres the "Lock Topic" button.

Yes, I think the reason you made it is true, because the ethereum blockchain is congested that makes gas fee expensive than before.

It was already a big problem Etheruem had to deal with. If high gasoline prices do not come down, there will be many projects that choose other main chains

[TheRiddingCoin5]

Its a scaling issue and looks like casper will provide a solution for this.

The reason why whole ETH network gas fee is so high because Fcoin gpm listing forces all candidate companies to use massive gas fee to airdrop to Fcoin accounts to create that deposit vote number, each day top 5 gets listed, then count from 0 again

past few day more than 80 gwei per transaction, today already reduce to below 20 gwei, so try to send your tokens now, if not maybe gwei will increase later

This may be caused by the listing of some exchanges, which led to the excessive circulation of Ethereum and some tokens during a certain period of time. They need to transfer tokens to these exchanges to get a chance to vote.

There are a lot of reason and first etherium network. If you do not pay high gas you can not do your transaction. 2 days ago, mine transaction was cancelled

I don't believe now on Ethereum exchange they had numerous problem if you going to look on their wallet it's all congested. I don't what will Vitalik will do in his project. This is extremely exhausted! hope they can fix it

We are hearing complain about high gas price of this token. This is really a problem but we all know that the reason for high gas price is congestion. The Ethereum is very much congested and so the gas price is high here. I hope that eth will update their solutions and then the price will be reduced.

[Pecunia non olet]

It is because there are so many transactions on the Ethereum blockchain.
Something like happened to Bitcoin last year, when fees were about 50USD per transaction  .

Yes, there is a high traffic in  the ethereum blockchain but everything is back to normal now. I mean the transaction fees is not that high anymore if send erc-20 tokens.

[greenvally]

There are so many reasons behind this. I think this project works for their development that’s why gas fees are rising. Now wait and see how this system will work. It’s the big question.

[Jonnitor]

Gas fees is so high because the traffic of transaction are congested. Therefore they need a high has inorder your transaction to be process easily.

The number of people in the crypto currency market is very high. A lot of people has made the market congested. This might contribute to the increase in ETH gas prices. It is better for ETH to update their site and place in new solutions to solve this problems. If solved it will encourage new investors.

[jasydoggye]

The participation of the people in the crypto currency market is quite high. This have caused a jam packed situation in the market. As a result, the price of the gas of ETH has increased. The recommendation for them would be to update their site in order to avoid such troubles.

[hi-blessings]

Yes, the Ethereum network is congested that is why every transaction now attracts a higher gas fee. We experienced same thing few months ago. So it is normal to happen on the Ethereum network once in a while. It is even getting better as of today compared to how it was about six days ago.

[OluwaTosin10]

as we know now the gas fee to send of a token is very high. what will be the reason?

Yes when there are several transactions on the network, there is bound to be congestion
all you need to do is raise your gwei high up and moderate the gas fee, it would cost about 1$ - 2$ but it is still relative cheap compared to withdrawal fees on exchange sites
so there is no need to complain.

As the trading volume increases, gas will increase rapidly, the recent Gas Gap is believed to most of the ICOs allocate tokens to the investment and bouty members.
