 Dynamic Fee Transactions
 ========================
 
 If the network you are interacting with implements EIP-1559, you can use a better fee model when sending transactions. Instead of specifying ``gas_price``, you specify ``priority_fee`` and an optional ``max_fee``.
 
-* ``priority_fee`` detrmines ``maxPriorityFeePerGas``, which is tipped to the miner. The recommended priority fee can be read from ``chain.priority_fee``.
+* ``priority_fee`` determines ``maxPriorityFeePerGas``, which is tipped to the miner. The recommended priority fee can be read from ``chain.priority_fee``.
 
 * ``max_fee`` determines ``maxFeePerGas``, which includes the base fee, which is the same for all transactions in the block and is burned, and your priority fee. The current base fee can be read from ``chain.base_fee``.
 
 Brownie uses ``base_fee * 2 + priority_fee`` as ``max_fee`` if you only specify the priority fee.

+Setting Default Dynamic Fees
+----------------------------
+
+You can use :func:`network.priority_fee <main.max_fee>` to set a default priority fee for all transactions:
+
+    .. code-block:: python
+
+        >>> from brownie.network import gas_price
+        >>> priority_fee("2 gwei")
+
+Setting the default to ``"auto"`` will dynamically determine the priority fee using :attr:`web3.eth.max_priority_fee <web3.eth.Eth.max_priority_fee>`. Seting to ``None`` will return to legacy-style transactions.

 Gas Strategies
 ==============
 
@@ -34,37 +48,37 @@ Gas strategies come in three basic types:
 * **Time** strategies provide an initial price, and optionally replace pending transactions based on the amount of time that has passed since the first transaction was broadcast.
 
 Using a Gas Strategy
-====================
+--------------------
 
 To use a gas strategy, first import it from ``brownie.network.gas.strategies``:
 
-.. code-block:: python
+    .. code-block:: python
 
-    >>> from brownie.network.gas.strategies import GasNowStrategy
-    >>> gas_strategy = GasNowStrategy("fast")
+        >>> from brownie.network.gas.strategies import GasNowStrategy
+        >>> gas_strategy = GasNowStrategy("fast")
 
 You can then provide the object in the ``gas_price`` field when making a transaction:
 
-.. code-block:: python
+    .. code-block:: python
 
-    >>> accounts[0].transfer(accounts[1], "1 ether", gas_price=gas_strategy)
+        >>> accounts[0].transfer(accounts[1], "1 ether", gas_price=gas_strategy)
 
 When the strategy replaces a pending transaction, the returned :func:`TransactionReceipt <brownie.network.transaction.TransactionReceipt>` object will be for the transaction that confirms.
 
 During :ref:`non-blocking transactions <core-accounts-non-blocking>`, all pending transactions are available within the :func:`history <brownie.network.state.TxHistory>` object. As soon as one transaction confirms, the remaining dropped transactions are removed.
 
 Setting a Default Gas Strategy
-==============================
+------------------------------
 
 You can use :func:`network.gas_price <main.gas_price>` to set a gas strategy as the default for all transactions:
 
-.. code-block:: python
