I’m currently in a crypto quest and need a pending transaction on my EVM wallet address. I have to cancel it on their platform to finish the quest. I’ve attempted these methods without success: 1. Sending to another EVM wallet address with the lowest gas fee on AVAX C-Chain and ERC20. 2. Swapping a token in UniSwap with the lowest gas fee on ERC20. I’ll send 5 USDC (AVAX C-chain) to the first person who can assist. 🙏 Please provide your AVAX C-Chain wallet address with your answer. ---

I received a solution on Discord—just swap using the core web app without the need for a second approval 😅. That answered my question lol ---

Since the network ERC20 was there but the token was different, the fee was automatically high ---
