Gas fees too high? Farm where gas costs cents, or nothing.
Expensive gas is mostly an Ethereum mainnet story. Layer 2s like Base and Arbitrum, and chains like Solana and Sui, usually charge cents or less per transaction, and some venues charge retail traders no trading fee at all. Move your route to where fees are small and the same budget does far more.

Questions
Why are Ethereum gas fees so high?
Ethereum mainnet has limited block space, so users bid for it. Layer 2s batch many transactions together and settle on Ethereum, which makes each one far cheaper.
Which chains have the cheapest gas for airdrops?
Layer 2s like Base and Arbitrum, and chains like Solana and Sui, usually cost cents or less per action. Fees change with demand, so check your wallet before signing.
