Recent analysis by market intelligence firm Santiment indicates that the decrease in Ethereum network interest has led to a decrease in gas prices.
In recent days, Ethereum transaction costs have been so low, according to the report. “We could tell they were that low even before previous lows… Low costs reflect a lack of activity; nobody wants to complete anything.”
Fans of Ethereum are now awaiting the merger with bated breath. This will lower ETH’s gas costs further while also decreasing environmental issues.
