Transactions fees on Ethereum’s mainnet has caused much frustration and stirred frequent criticism as of late, however transaction fees have been on a steady rise going back at least a year. As the number one smart contract platform by any metric is growing in popularity, so do the fees that go along with each transaction as the network becomes increasingly congested.
This year’s NFT craze has nothing but accelerated this trend, and perhaps it’s time for the average user to get used to the idea of not transacting on Ethereum mainnet at all, as mainnet capacity is increasingly utilized to perform high-value transactions and transactions published by scaling solutions on top of Ethereum mainnet.
In fact, the general advice in the space suggests average users, unless they already have, should stop transacting on Ethereum mainnet, but transition to scaling solutions (Layer-2) such as Optimism, Arbitrum and the newly released Starknet.
