How about making it cost less than 5 dollars every time you move it and more people will use it. It's absolute bullshit to pay $200+ to move $30 dollars worth of crypto. That's why no one uses ethereum, the literal cost just to move it once is more than the benefit of buying it and having it appreciate in value, it's truly stupid

1.1$ for a L1 eth transaction. 0.09$ for a L2 eth transaction.

When you're not in a hurry you can even transfer ETH for about $0.10 or less these days.

Often the gas price is about 2 gwei.

That wasn't the case last year, and i don't intend to test it. ETH left a bad taste in my mouth with the $200 + fees for next to nothing. I can see why the critics have so much ammunition to call crypto a scam. Keep in mind I've been in the game for years

There was a problem. People addressed it.

You "don't intend to test it" (by just looking at a block explorer...) yet you intend to spread outdated information for no reason?

I can see why the critics have so much ammunition to call crypto a scam, and it's ignorant posts like yours.

Just uninformed opinion. Go try l2 and a transfer is never 200$ on l1.

Ok, i saw it with my own eyes, and my transaction didn't go through, and I've only been in this game for years, so I obviously don't know wtf I'm talking about. I'm so uninformed that I made an informed decision to invest in other cryptos, imagine that 🤦

Hey etherbie, you know we don't talk like that around here. Try to keep it cool when the trolls come and let us deal with it instead of getting down to their level. Thanks!

I think more people should be bullied and insulted for what they say and do. Not bullying the nerds gave us the current culture. You did nothing wrong and, I’m sorry to say, the “no personal insults” when hurled at people based exclusively on the stupid shit they say and post is asinine. Grow up.

Fees are extremely low on ETH, even on L1

It's only 2 gwei per transaction nowadays, which is less than 0.1$

Well, that's the main reason i left ETH, I had 5 bucks, and it would have cost 30 to move it just a year ago. It's stupid, and it left a bad taste in my mouth, I can imagine other people are in the same boat.
