Gas prices are typically lowest on weekends between 01:00–07:00 UTC, when network activity is at its daily minimum.
Analyzing Polygon gas price history reveals predictable patterns that can save you significant fees over time. The Polygon PoS Chain's 24-hour gas cycle shows lower prices during Asian morning hours (01:00–07:00 UTC) and higher prices during European and North American trading sessions (12:00–22:00 UTC).
Weekly patterns are also observable: weekends generally show 15–30% lower average Gwei prices compared to weekdays, reflecting reduced DeFi and NFT trading activity. Long-term monthly data shows that major market events—token launches, protocol upgrades, and bull-run FOMO periods—correlate with multi-day gas price spikes.
Our Polygon gas history chart covers the past 30 days of average daily Gwei prices sourced from PolygonScan's public data. The chart displays minimum, average, and maximum daily values so you can see not just the trend but also the intraday volatility.
For developers and power users, historical gas data is invaluable for setting dynamic fee strategies. Transaction scheduling tools can use this data to automatically submit non-urgent transactions during predicted low-fee windows, reducing costs by up to 60% on high-volume operations.
