Why do some wallets charge high gas fees?

Wallets themselves do not usually charge gas fees; the fees are determined by blockchain network congestion. However, some wallets may add service fees on top of the required network fee. High fees are common during periods of heavy activity on chains like Ethereum. Traders can adjust gas fees manually in many wallets, choosing slower confirmation for lower cost. Alternative blockchains such as Binance Smart Chain or Solana often provide lower transaction costs. If a wallet consistently charges much higher than normal fees, it may be adding hidden surcharges, and users should consider alternatives.
