Description

For the past several months, Polygon GWEI has been out of control. Currently, the threshold for "free" gas to the consumer is 150 GWEI. Meaning that anytime GWEI is higher than 150, services like the Marketplace: wearable purchases and wearable transfers, Builder: Minting, adding minters, adding collaborators, putting on sale, and L2 services: MANA transfer, L2 wearable drop, etc will fail, and force consumers to swap to Polygon to pay the gas themselves. However, switching to polygon and paying gas is not an option for in-world meta-transactions. Those just outright fail. Currently, the DAO covers these gas costs and the average is $1k-$2k USD worth of Matic spent each month on Polygon GWEI (data provided by HP). This poll is to increase the threshold from 150 to 300 to meet the new standard norm that we've been experiencing for the last few months.

What we really need is the ability to connect to polygon while in DCL so we do not have to rely on metatransaction relaying and paying gas fees.

Can you share a link to the data @NikkiFuego, not that i dont believe you I just want to see it :stuck_out_tongue: Voted yes to 300 GWEI.

Absolutely. I've had to show a few newer users that this was not in fact a bug and they hadn't been hacked, and it was very offsetting to them. We need frictionless ways to make purchases without being booted from the land, otherwise it's just another checkmark against our operability and adoption.

I see how this can be a huge burden and blocker for games, which are the majority of what the user base does daily. I support this.
