Why does gas change?

Gas fluctuates with increased/decreased demand and the price of the native token. Due to gas price fluctuation, the cost of transactions will differ depending on the transaction type and token price. When the networks are experiencing a high volume of transactions, the fee will be higher. Users can wait for the gas price to come down or submit a price they are willing to pay and wait for the transaction to be confirmed; however, if the gas price limit is too low, validators can ignore such transactions.
