EDITING GAS FEES
```

* Make sure to have a Gas Fees estimator extension or app. Please scroll down the following guide in order to find the best ones

{% endcontent-ref %}

* When a collection is dropping, gas fees usually increase and it's crucial to know how to properly edit them in order not to have the transaction canceled
* Click on the estimator app and check the gas fees

* As you want your transaction to be executed asap, go for the highest probability and GWEI
* Now click on the Mint button from the website of the NFTs dropping (if you're minting from the contract is the same)
* It will pop up Metamask
* If you're on 9.8.4 version, just edit GWEI (don't modify the Gas Limit)

* As you can see, you just have to edit GWEI based on the estimations.
* **For HYPED DROPS we suggest you to double the GWEI (eg. Instead of 82, go for 164)**

* If GWEI are increasing, so increase also in Metamask

{% hint style="warning" %}
What if i already processed the transaction and have to raise GWEI amount?
{% endhint %}

* You can speed up your transaction by clicking on "Speed Up" on the transaction in the activity section of Metamask
