 "But the fees are too high" Ethereum L1 in the long term isn't where daily users will transact. It will be the DA/settlement layer. L2s will (and are!) taking care of the high fee issues— eric.eth (@econoar) <a href="https://twitter.com/econoar/status/1755108615944618433?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">February 7, 2024</a>

Addressing the prevalent concern about high transaction fees on Ethereum, Conner pointed out that while Ethereum’s mainnet may not be the ideal platform for daily transactions in the long term, it will still serve as the foundation for decentralized applications and settlement layers.

In response to critiques regarding the user experience of layer-2 solutions, Conner remained optimistic, suggesting that the challenges can be solved. Although he didn’t delve into specific solutions, he pointed out significant improvements in the user experience of layer-2 solutions over the past two years, predicting that wallets will ultimately streamline processes, making the overall experience more seamless and user-friendly.

Meanwhile, data from BitInfoCharts <a href="https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/ethereum-transactionfees.html#3y" target="_blank" rel="noopener">shows</a> that the average transaction fee on Ethereum presently stands at $9, notably lower than the $50 recorded in 2021 but still posing a hurdle for network activity at current levels. Comparatively, executing a token swap on Ethereum’s mainnet costs approximately $6, whereas the same operation costs only $0.6 on <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/loopring/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Loopring</a> or $0.18 on <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/optimism/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Optimism</a>, highlighting the attractiveness of layer-2 solutions for cost-conscious users, according to L2Fees <a href="http://l2fees.info" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">data</a>.
