    Yes, there is a maximum gas limit that can be set in Metamask for cryptocurrency transactions. The gas limit determines the maximum amount of computational work that can be done for a transaction. It is important to set an appropriate gas limit to ensure that the transaction is processed successfully. If the gas limit is set too low, the transaction may fail and the gas fee will still be deducted. On the other hand, setting a gas limit that is too high may result in unnecessary fees. You can increase the gas limit in Metamask by adjusting the gas limit slider when sending a transaction. Make sure to consider the complexity of the transaction and the current network congestion when setting the gas limit.
