I think etherem is an old altcoin that can evolve with the times, so the features in it attract the attention of everyone who wants to develop their projects using the ETH network, and as evidenced by the number of successful projects using the etherem network, although the transaction costs are quite large but very  according to its expensive price and the process is also very fast,
I believe that the rise in popularity of the BSC chain is temporary. The ethereum network will be updated as part of the improvements to Ethereum 2.0 and similar platforms will lose their popularity, which they gained due to the temporary complexity of the ethereum network. Of course, market participants already now need platforms with low commission fees, and therefore everyone is looking for their own way out to continue their normal work. My erc-20 tokens are still in ethereum wallets for now. Ethereum is still ahead, you need to wait a bit.

Ethereum has a much lower gas fee these days so nearly half of all the problems listed here is already gone. I am saying this as a person who favors BSC, but at least ETH is decentralized and that is a very different animal, sure we are going to see more changes in ETH very soon and with eth 2.0 it is going to change a whole lot but even those changes are not made without asking people first, it was asked to community and eth owners and we decided to follow that up so it was asked to us basically.

Secondly BNB is very centralized, Binance controls nearly everything about it, and that is why people do not prefer it, I mean I still do, but I understand the ones that don't, and rest is just not as highly used so why bother. So yeah even though I use bsc over eth, I can still see why people prefer at this point, it is not really as bad as you think it is.
Ethereum gas prices are crazy but at least we know Ethereum is safe to use. There have been numerous issues with BSC and Polygon. I only feel safe using xDAI and ETH right now. I think Aurora on NEAR will scale Ethereum soon and we won't even have to wait for ETH 2.0.

ETH is superior to other cryptocurrencies with regards to decentralized applications. Though it can cost more, ETH ecosystem is proven to be the best platform to innovate decentralized finance.

ETH used to be the most preferred layer 1 blockchain back in the day (since its inception to to 3-4 years ago). As a matter of fact, it became the #1 most used blockchain in 2017 after 98% of all ICOs were conducted on eth that enabled a lot of people to start buying and holding to those ETH tokens. Anyway, this isn't 2017 anymore and ETH has gotten worse ever since. That's why the rise of other layer 1 and layer 2 solutions.

This is why I'm bullish on layer 1 solutions like NEAR protocol. Aside from the dirt cheap tx fees, less than 1 second transaction finality. Not to make the fact that it's eth-compatible, thanks to Aurora (A layer 2 solution) built on NEAR that is fully compatible with ethereum and has a bridge (called rainbow bridge) that allows NEAR <> Ethereum to be bridged.



ETH 2.0 has a lot of big promises and features most of which are already available in layer 1 solutions like Avalanche, NEAR and solana so I wouldn't put to much hope on it in the long term.

Let's discuss what alternatives to Ethereum currently exist? Let's figure it out together!

BSC ? their platform are more cheaper and fastest and also they had wrapped coin that makes more cheaper to move asset from one coin to another. I don't use DEX because I'm quite comfortable with regular exchanges and I've never been staking or for the purpose of earning interest other than trading. so I don't know what causes you to be charged more between. in BSC it seems that everything is low from that much to regular transactions to swaps.

It can't deny that many were moving to the BSC platform when there is a surge of ETH gas fees. We do understand the situation and of course, we choose those platforms that could help us, instead. But we are done already, ETH gas fees are lower down and the chances are that people will turn back using ETH as we know that majority of the projects are supported by ERC-20.

But anyways, the BSC platform keeps growing bigger, the competition is getting stronger between ERC2O and the BSC platform. And it is up to us which one we gonna used where we can save some fees.

I searched for information.
I found several ETH competitors in fact.
The closest in terms of liquidity is BSC and TRON. They look good and they have little commission.
But you know what?
I think everyone should pay attention to beginners. Remember the crazy airdrops from 1inch and Uniswap. I then earned 8 thousand dollars from scratch)
I am now thinking of making an exchange for several newcomers of the Near Protocol. They have their own big swap ref.finance, it seems to me that they can distribute some bonuses for their first users.
I don't know, I'll just make exchanges everywhere) Maybe it will bring me money from scratch)))

My acquaintance with Ethereum began in 2017, then it was a very good technology. Probably everyone remembers, ICO, Bounty, crazy profits! I have been through this and am very grateful to ETH, but now everything is different.

If you did not use DEX, did not trade in the DeFi sector, then I envy you very much, because it was simply impossible to do this on the Ethereum blockchain LOL)


You know that the whole DeFi-thing could only happen and arise because of the possibilities that the Ethereum ecosystem offers? Without Ethereum the only thing we could do on the blockchain would probably still be to send x-amount of a currency to another wallet and sign a message and that would probably be it. Yes of course it is also true that the transaction fees on the Ethereum network were so ridiculously high during the height of the Defi-hype, with several hundred $ worths of fees for a dex-swap, that during that period it was not really usuable for a "normal" user because the transaction fees were often higher than the actual transfered or swapped volume. The ETH devs know about that problem though and it already has gotten much better and it hopefully will continue to move into that direction. So i am pretty sure that ETH will continue to be the number 2 crypto-project behind BTC.

So here's a question for you, everyone who trades on DEX from Ethereum. Don't you feel sorry for your money at all? Do you want to wait 10 minutes for an exchange? Do you want to see failed every time you did not guess the commission? You guys are masochists!
Oh yes, what you're seeing and the experts have all judged, so what do you expect?  An agile without a secure validation mechanism for blocks?  You can not understand for property, what is the most important?  I'm sure it's secure and safe.  I also fucked with ETH's Gas, ... but sometimes, I realize that ETH has so strong points that it is one thing to take advantage of its huge liquidity and multitude of coins supported.  something different.  And so, perhaps Sharding on ETH 2.0 will be a very powerful adjunct to remove the long-standing disadvantages.  Just wait, ETH will continue to grow.

Eth has improved since then. But if you want another blockchain that works like eth with faster and lower fee then go to bsc network, polygon, fantom, avalanche and solana chain.

We have different taste when it comes to pick but what I suggested are all good blockchain and now being used as alternative to eth network. Yes especially fantom and polygon, both of the fees on these networks are relatively low and you can say that its worth trading or doing a lot of transactions without worrying about the fees.

If you did not use DEX, did not trade in the DeFi sector, then I envy you very much, because it was simply impossible to do this on the Ethereum blockchain LOL)

I started trading in DEX last summer, undoubtedly it was the easiest profit in my life, but then everything changed dramatically)))

With the arrival of more and more new users, the increase in the price of Ethereum, the huge load on the network, I was just shocked by the commission.

On average, I spent about 1-2 thousand dollars on a transaction. When the commission was $30 for the sell/buy exchange, then you don't really notice it. BUT when the commission became  $150 one way, I realized that this was just a robbery.

Yes, I understand that when you change 20 thousand dollars, you don't think much about it. But when you give 15-30% of your turnover to a transaction for a commission, it's just shit.

I spend a thousand dollars, and I give 150-200 dollars just to nowhere! What kind of nonsense is this guys?) Can't you see that Ethereum is just a piece of shit?

And also this famous Failed))) hahah. Do you think that you will not pay for the canceled transaction? LOL) You will pay 2-3 times if the hype around the coin is huge and your slippage just does not have time!

As a result, I stopped trading on DEX. I was looking for alternatives like Tron DEX, EOS DEX and so on. But due to the low liquidity, you will not earn a lot of money there.

So here's a question for you, everyone who trades on DEX from Ethereum. Don't you feel sorry for your money at all? Do you want to wait 10 minutes for an exchange? Do you want to see failed every time you did not guess the commission? You guys are masochists!

Switch to other DEX, use other blockchains, forget about Ethereum with their eternal promises!

Let's discuss what alternatives to Ethereum currently exist? Let's figure it out together!

I am glad to inform you that you don’t have to put up with this robbery that happens every transaction, as many cheap blockchains appear now, like BSC, Polygon, KuCoin. I used to earn money there in different yeild-farming pools, but now it is not profitable. Nevertheless, I believe that it happens because of the bear market and as soon as it ends, I will get my high APYs again.
Talking about Ethereum, I think it will become much cheaper and more scalable as soon as Ethereum 2.0. launces.

Ethereum is one of the promising coins mate, we have different experience in crypto, my experience is good and satisfying with ethereum. Most trader using this one rather than bitcoin because they assured for the safety of there funds. Maybe now ethereum is in crisis as all token but it will rise again in the future.

Ethereum still reliable to use even the fees were too expensive and no one can ignore it as it's very trusted although there are some new best coin in the market that can compete with the technology of ethereum but the fact that its been how many years of the services and still very secure and  the team keep doing their best to make ethereum became the best alternative in the market unlike other project, so for sure this situation will be fix and it will be fine again soon. Just don't base on the situation mate wherein just believe what will happen in the future..

it is possible that people believe that tokens running on the ETH network have far more popularity than others. there are already many solutions for ETH such as BSC and Polygon which so far have cheaper transaction fees. but the popularity of the ETH Token is hard to replace.
Yeah, thats also one of reason, people see project that creates token in ETH blockchain instead of other as a more legitimate and more serious but actually its all depends on the project itself, even eth was also used rampantly for scams back then so cant really use that reason as a credible factor to judge a project. I personally have no problem whats the developer preference on where they released their tokens.

the gas fee ethereum is very expensive making the costs on DEX more expensive trading examples such as on uniswap which makes the costs add up very large I myself have made trades that cost a lot not worth the results I get of course leaving ethereum is the right choice because of the trading costs it's crazy to make the more expensive gas I sell on the DEX exchange it costs quite a lot so I prefer to delay the sale.

People still use Ethereum because it is so mainstream. There are better projects such as BSC and NEAR that are faster and cheaper to use, but Ethereum has the mainstream hype and the money behind it. It also has the promise of Ethereum 2.0 which is keeping people on the network. (NEAR is everything that Ethereum 2.0 has promised to be)

that's the there's called EIP and it will be used as a way to improve the protocol. We are all feeling tired with the scalability problem that sometimes it can make the transaction fees more than 100 dollars for each transaction but it's not replacing your puzzle easily dude.
We have been also using the alternative network as an alternative way when ethereum faced scalability problem and the network gets congested

People use ETH Because it was the world's first opensource blockchain technology that made it easy for everyone to create their own cryptocurrency. And its smart contract has the most features.  Which gives a token a more advanced look.  Although its transaction fee was too high for some time.  Now it has been resolved
