What Ethereum is, and why it costs more on fomo

Ethereum is the original smart-contract blockchain, and the network that layer-2s such as Base and Robinhood Chain settle to. Its block space is scarcer, so its network fee, called gas, is higher and swings more than on those layer-2s. fomo’s help centre is direct about it: “Ethereum carries higher network costs than the other networks and takes longer to process.”

Three fomo-specific points follow from that:

• You pay the gas. The network fee “is set by the Ethereum network and paid to it, not to fomo, and it applies to sells as well as buys.” On Ethereum fomo shows that figure inside the total you enter rather than adding it on top. When it is a large share of the trade, the app asks you to tick “I understand” before it goes through.
• Higher minimums. The minimum sell is 5 USDC (2 USDC on most networks), and the deposit minimum is “the highest and it can change”. fomo suggests clearing it comfortably rather than landing at the line.
• Deposits wait out gas spikes. A deposit can show as pending, or “failed to process”, while gas is high. The money is at your own deposit address and moves once fees ease.

fomo’s fee itself is the same as on the other EVM networks: 0.50% per trade, or 0.45% with a referral code. The table above works out fomo’s part; on Ethereum the network fee is the bigger unknown, so read the Network fee row in your quote. If you hold ETH but no USDC, the deposit screen offers a Sell tile to turn it into cash. fomo names etherscan.io as the explorer.

Ethereum’s fee line on fomo

DefiLlama’s fee data for fomo on Ethereum starts on May 15, 2026, later than Base, BNB Chain and Monad (December 2025). That is a data start date, not an announcement.

Ethereum is small for fomo but it moved against the trend. Monthly fees from DefiLlama’s daily series (read November 10, 2026):

Month	Fees on Ethereum
June 2026	$64.8K
July 2026	$115K
August 2026	$250K
September 2026	$420K
October 2026	$491K

Every other spot chain fell from September to October 2026; Ethereum rose 17%. Its busiest day was September 29, 2026 ($73K), and several of its biggest days came in early October. DefiLlama does not break this down by token, so we cannot say what traders were buying. Its current share of fomo’s fees is in the bars above.
