DefaultMaxGasPrice updated to 70Gwei

pdyraga · pdyraga · commit 4b7e0525eb63 · 2020-08-07T11:01:47.000+02:00
Given the current trends of gas prices it makes sense to increase the
DefaultMaxGasPrice to 70Gwei. As for today, Etherscan indicates 60Gwei
is the safe price and 75Gwei is the proposed price both with ~20 seconds
expected mining time of TX.
