How to put as much GAS as you want when using MEW to send a transaction ?

hey folks, i'm just wondering if like me you ever had trouble to put maximum GAS on myetherwallet.

Last time during an ICO, i was rejected due the lack amount of GAS i put on, just because i wasn't able to put more Gwei into the transaction. Some transaction were having, much much more GAS than me so.

If you actually use the normal way, the maximum Gwei you can put is 50 or 60 Gwei, but sometimes this is not enough if you want to go through an ICO.

I even remembered during the BAT (basic attention token) token sales, i saw transaction with more than 6000 dollars of GAS passing through, to put their transaction at the top of the top for the miners before everyone else, what the hell, 6000 dollars !!! It must have been some whales !

So what to do ?

1 - go to myetherwallet.com and don't register
2 - go to step 1 into from adress - copy paste the adress you want to use then click to generate information
3 - go to step 2 - into to adress copy paste the adress you want to use then put the amount of GAS you want in Wei, so 1Gwei is 10000000000 wei, so for example if you want to put 500 Gwei, it should be 5000000000000 wei (i know this is too much 0 !)
4 - put the gas limit you need (its usually 200 k) and don't worry about Nonce or data (most of the time its optional)
5 - Then get acces to your wallet by the way you chose when you created your account
5 - finally click on send transaction then confirm it again, done !

As you can see its easy but for the no gas limit, it can be useful !

Peace out from Lyon
