Bitcoin went from 95% market cap domination to 81% in the last months, the chance it being overtaken by the altcoin market is quite high at the moment, people start moving its money to other coins.
The free market will chose, we replace bitcoin or we replace Core.
With the halving and increase usage, next 6 months are critical, plan accordingly.

Dropbox got its seed funding from Y Combinator, go ask those guys so they can laugh at your "I need money and everything else to do yet another cloud storage service".

probably one of the incoming unconfirmed txes got dropped from the mempool. the btc will return to the sender's wallet if that happens.
Yap, this^ You need to check with sender, also some of those still unconfirmed may be discarded.

And it will go even lower when people realize bitcoin will not scale in any meaningful way for at least the next 2 years.
Price will probably be in $100s in the next 2 years.
Bitcoin will scale, I 'm not worried in the slightest about that. The thing is it might not scale as you want it to. Price of $100 therefore is pure bs. Only time will tell but $100 is too low even if an altcoin becomes the king. If things don't go too well it will still be valued around the $200 or $300 mark. Exactly said. The reality is even when the market is very bad also the price of bitcoin has not went beneath the 350$. So we can be good faith that at any situation bitcoin won't go very low. In the past year it went below $200 a couple times, $200 is not an unbreakable barrier, if worst case scenario happens, $100 to $200 bitcoins seems possible.

At least he got his transaction confirmed quickly. F2Pool will return his money, I guess. lol, I don't think F2pool would do it. Lucky pool! Stuff like this happened once or twice before, pools gave the money back.

I'm sorry for the question I'm going to ask but there is something I just can't understand.
Blocks are not at all all full. So why are the tx in the mempool not filling the blocks which are not full?
Some mining pools, AntPool, BW and BTCC, get a lot of empty blocks, miners don't really need to include transactions.

If they own the site they can do whatever they want with it, your opinion is irrelevant, you have nothing to say about what other people do with their websites.

Yes.
Otherwise growth in Bitcoin is essentially capped and will move to other currencies. Speculators will also move on and the price will dip temporarily. This could possibly cause some spiraling issues... lower growth, lower price, higher fees, halved block reward. Bitcoin could lose their first mover and networking effect advantages in that type of situation.
Nothing can be done and nothing will be done, we will see the following scenario happening, plan accordingly: WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF BITCOIN BLOCKS ARE AT FULL CAPACITY?
If the blocks reach full capacity before there is a functioning transaction fee market in place, Bitcoin investors will likely see the price drop and may experience difficulty withdrawing their coins from an exchange. Elsewhere in the Bitcoin economy, problems could be much graver: casinos that literally stop functioning, coin mixers screeching to a halt, and coin faucets that run dry.
Faced with these difficulties, entrepreneurs running these services would likely set up working alternatives by moving away from the Bitcoin blockchain. This in turn would make the average block size drop significantly, thus clearing up space for normal transaction confirmation times in the network.
The process of gambling and laundering services moving away from the Bitcoin blockchain could cause a series of rallies in the altcoins (of which we may already be seeing the start). Shared Coin, for example, includes any fees within their transactions so that users can get quick access to their laundered coins. If the block size limit is reached, transaction times will be slower, and these users may switch from Bitcoin to altcoins.
It’s likely that for gambling and mixing, the most liquid altcoins will be those highest in demand: Litecoin, actively traded in at least 17 markets, and Dogecoin, actively traded in at least 7 markets.3 Privacy-oriented coins such as Dash and Monero could see significant rallies. The short history of altcoins suggests that when the most liquid coins rally, the rest are lifted with the tide, resulting in short-lived but strong rallies.
