There were great expectations for ETH 2.0, but widespread misconceptions. There are two corrections to the statement "ETH 2.0 gas fee will be lower". First, the 2.0 upgrade is a long process, and the "Merge" expected to be completed within this year will not lower gas fee, but the "Shard" will. Second, even if the "Shard" is completed, it will only ensure a reduction in gas fee for L2, while L1 will probably remain a "noble chain" forever.
Excellent thank you
