Avalanche inscriptions draw in user interest as AVAX lingers
Avalanche can’t shake off the inscription transactions as it has become a key part of its metrics.
- Inscription transactions are over 20% on Avalanche.
- The inscription fees have been reduced on the network.

Avalanche attracts more inscription gas
Despite the considerable number of inscriptions and the corresponding percentage of transactions on the Avalanche network, there has been a noticeable decline in the generated gas fees.
