Nothing we can do here buddy, this has been the constant issue for a couple months now due to the divide from the community on which scale-ability solution to pick in order to counteract this issue at the moment. Though, people must understand that trans fees must increase as the amount of bitcoins per block are decreasing and to fill that gap money has to come from somewhere.

It's tough to say, but I really do hope the fees take a nice nose-dive. It's pretty horrible to attempt to get someone to use a currency in which it takes a high percentage of the price of an item someone wants to buy to pay for the transaction fees on it. Normal people who pay their bills would rather just use their credit / debit card.

be patient and calm down

Expect fees to go higher while the scaling wars escalate  :'(

It's not that it is not sending when you only pay low transaction fee, it is just taking it's time since you have choose the economical fee instead of normal fee. So, all you do is you have to wait because it is a batch that is going to be processed including your transaction, and there's nothing to worry about it.

blockchain has new feature now you can adjust your fees low fees takes some times.

That's the order of the day, people have started monetizing Bitcoin and that's all we've been speaking against for the past few weeks. Transaction fees are ever increasing and confirmation times delaying. There's nothing to be done you just have to do the time to get the transaction confirmed.

Send as alow fee as possible.
then just accelerate it using viabtc's tool at the top of their page if youu can't bear the brunt of it. ;)

That doesn't make sense.  Mining has always operated in the private sector and naturally chooses transactions with the highest fee first.

It's not the miners' fault that the network is struggling to handle the growing number of transactions.  For now, just keep your fees high and suck it up.  Trust me, there are good times coming if you keep your Bitcoin.

ok ty guys i glad to know that

why you didn't enter the number of btc you want to send? also you can decrease the fee, you can send it even with 0.2$. i did send 20$ with 0.3$ fee and it was confirmed in less than a hour.

Imagine if you had to send this small amount with PayPal, the fee would have eaten most of it.
I think the best option to send smaller amount is convert btc to some good Altcoin and send it.

This is due to the Bitcoin price going high with fluctuation and their is heavy transaction in Bitcoin that is why who ever has high transaction fees their transaction are getting confirmation faster, i myself 3 days back sent 0.043btc to my friend and he received the coin after 48 hrs due to low fee. So if you want to get faster confirmation on your transaction then you have to send high fees.

Bitcoin is no longer suitable for micropayments. Instead of that Bitcoin sharks are proud of advocating that you can by Tesla with BTC and pay lower fees. Or you can send millions and pay a few dollars.
