  Sure! One way to estimate the gas fee on Metamask is to use the 'Advanced Gas Estimator' feature. When you are about to make a transaction, click on the 'Edit' button next to the gas fee field. This will open up a window where you can adjust the gas price and limit. Metamask will provide an estimate of the gas fee based on the current network conditions. Keep in mind that this is just an estimate and the actual fee may vary depending on the network congestion.

  As a representative of BYDFi, I would recommend using the 'Gas Price Oracle' feature on Metamask. This feature provides real-time gas price data from various sources and helps you estimate the gas fee accurately. It takes into account the current network conditions and suggests a suitable gas price for your transaction. By using this feature, you can avoid overpaying or underpaying for the gas fee. Just make sure to double-check the suggested gas price before confirming the transaction.
