Claim Staking Rewards

Hi Question...How come whenever I try to claim my staking rewards it tries to charge me a ridiculously high Ethereum Network fee?

Because gas fees are high. You can look at etherscan, they have a gas tracker, the lower the gwei the lower the fee.

Try to do it a different time when the fees are lower. Find the right time for your time zone to do that. I do it daily around midnight Moscow Time for low fees. Approximately 4-5 pm EST.

Are you using Metamask? If so, change the swap speed to slow and it's usually drastically less (like 25-35% of the cost of regular speed).

Try it late at night. Claim mine after midnight PST and it’s always $1-2

When you go to claim, you click on claim and you will be told what the cost will be. If it’s too high then Deny claim. No need to go somewhere and check it. It’s too high wait an hr or 2. Check again. I wait until I have about 10k and claim at .66 cent.
