...If the Ethereum network commissions do not decrease after a while, we will consider adding other cryptocurrencies.
I am very happy to see this statement because we truly need more GOLD token pairs which would be cheaper in fees than BTC and ETH pairs.
Looks like we are just at the beginning of high ETH fees. The cost of transfer keeps rising and is already 10 times higher as it was just a month ago.
If this is true that we are only at the beginning of the bull market then I am literally scared that these fees will be a big problem because ETH network is the base layer in this ecosystem and for sure it will have a significant impact on everything.
https://ethgasstation.info/We all know for a long time that ETH 1.0 wasn't able to scale but still, fees were not so high even during the ICO hype in 2017 and 2018.

I think the Digital Gold team should add another cryptocurrency to the GOLD token Marketplace as soon as possible. There are many faster and cheaper coins, a few of them already mentioned above, but there are also many new tokens and cryptocurrencies worth checking because they offer amazing speeds and no fees in many cases.
For sure only BTC and ETH pairs for the GOLD token in Digital Gold Marketplace are not enough, especially in such circumstances. BTC was always slow and costly, but nobody expected to see ETH fees going to such extremely high prices. This could have a big impact on the GOLD marketplace and GOLD token also because many users will choose to wait and not to buy, sell, or even transfer anything.
