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)
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.
