Couple of months ago it was about 30 cents to send/exchange a huge amount of ETH and now its a minimum 60$. To think I was going to invest in ETH. I love the project but they need to sort these issues fast.

A little bird told me that Augur is on the verge of ditching Ethereum for Tezos due to lack of scaling. Is there any truth to this?

I've checked ethgasstation. It doesn't change the fact in my real world use of ETH. It's costing 60$.

>> No.10343383

If you want to send tokens on ETH, then the going rate today for that is close to $500.

It's not a meme? It's really 60 fucking dollars for a transaction? WTF what happened? Volume caught up to the tech?

>> No.10343404

>>10343386
I'm not meme'ing. I'm dead serious. I heard about the network being clogged up. Didn't think it would last a long time or that it would spike gas prices as much as it has.

Just checked today how much gas I would need to transfer my ETH and it ended coming up at 60 USD. It was costing pennies even last month.

ETH is a great project and I want to see it succeed but this is showing how poor the scaling on the network is.

>> No.10343406

>>10343404
how did you "check" it? you can just send with less gas and then wait forever you know

>> No.10343409

>>10343404
And to think the next scaling solutions will hit the network only in 2022. The future is not bright. XLM might just overtake ETH in the mean time... or the value will just flow back to BTC.

Shapeshift. The plan was to buy ETH then exchange it. It said the minimum amount of gas needed was around 60 USD. If that's true great but from I heard that means waiting 24+ Hours.

>but mah naturally centralizing-by-design layer that weakens Bitcoin's overall security

How about unsolvable routing problem that prevents LN from scaling?
How about centralized developers that WANT high tx fees?
How about core devs that fought tooth and nail against asicboost mining, and now fully endorse it on BTC now that they're profiting from it?
How about a Blockstream CSO that says Bitcoin is for the rich only?

Sounds like a worthless, uninteresting currency.

Thats like saying dice sites have an impact on bitcoins overall security. Dude what.

BTC devs are far more decentralized than bcash. Cute how you ignore faketoshi patent trolling with nchain. Btrash is shaping up to be closed source.

nobody wants retards to interact with the first layer, though
the master plan to deal with your kind is to have dapps running on sidechains and abstract the crypto part away
if you desperately want to use cryptocurrency so you can feel like a big boy, stick to litecoin or something
