I Spent Over 11K USD On Ethereum Fees

By Scott Cunningham | Tech And Things | 17 Nov 2021


I’ve spent over 11K USD worth of ETH on Ethereum gas fees. Let’s talk about how to avoid fees, the mistakes I made, where to trade, and the future of ETH 2.0.

Below are some key takeaways from my experience:

Don’t trade random airdrops on swap exchanges like Uniswap and just avoid smart contract swap exchanges in general though THOR offers a decent solution.

 

Use non-smart contract exchanges and non-KYC exchanges instead. Some of the platforms I use are Coinex, ByBit, Simpleswap, Hive Engine, Changelly, THORswap, and Blocktrades. I tend to use a mix of these two types of ways to trade depending on what’s needed.

 

Many social media platforms have ERC20 tokens that will cost a lot to withdraw. Some examples are Yup, Minds, Den.Social, and Carbon. I think your best bet for now is to wait for ETH 2.0 to drastically reduce these fees.

 

I will be looking into a great deal of Eth alternatives, please recommend some for me. I will be looking into SOL, BSC, ADA, MATIC, DOT, ATOM, NEO, AVAX, SYS, XTZ, TERRA/LUNA, HIVE, SmartBCH EVM, and reviewing some old solutions too like TRX and EOS.
