# How to speed up

In ELYFI, actions such as ‘deposit’, ‘withdrawal’, ‘staking’, and ‘unstaking’ are to send a transaction to the Ethereum network. In order to send the transaction, you have to pay the Ethereum network fee (gas fee), and if the network is congested due to a large number of transactions, the transmitted transaction is delayed. Through the ‘acceleration’ function provided by MetaMask, you can make transactions faster by paying more for gas.

1. First, run the MetaMask extension and click the ‘Activity’ tab.

3\. After clicking the ‘High’ button, check the transaction fee. Then, if you click the ‘Save’ button, the processing speed of the transaction will be faster.
