My impression was that current unusually high interesting in NFT caused gas prices to spike. When I was playing with it for work reasons ( compliance ), it was around $50 for attempting to put my creations up for a bid ( I just checked today, gas fee is $103 ).

I find the whole thing fascinating, but, as I may have mentioned before, I see it as a very elaborate MLM type scam.

Majority of gas price spike comes from uniswap. Opensea which like one of the biggest nft marketplace is only responsible for 2% of the gas fees.

I shouldn't be amazed but I am at the sheer level of transparency. It is one thing to know this in theory, but quite another to see it displayed in practice. Love it. thank you for sharing.
