I noticed that the ETH gas fees are unusually high today. I'm wondering what could be the possible reasons for this increase. Could it be due to a surge in transactions on the Ethereum network, or are there any specific events or factors that might have contributed to this hike in gas fees? Why are ETH gas fees so high today?
