Transaction fee doesn't depend on the amount of bitcoin you send. So, it doesn't make sense to measure it based on a percentage of the amount you send.
Transaction fee depends on the the size of the transaction and the fee rate.
Transaction size depends on number of inputs and outputs and their types.
The fee rate is determined by the sender and can be set it at any amount higher than minimum relay fee which is usually 1 sat.

If you paid high fee, there are following scenarios:
1. You set the fee rate by yourself and set it to an amount more than required.
2. The fee rate was set by your wallet automatically and your wallet didn't estimate the required fee rate well.
3. You made the transaction when the network was busy and your wallet set the fee rate to a big amount.
4. Your transaction included big number of inputs or/and outputs.

There were lower number of tickets in the previous round because bitcoin price was higher in that time.
In the previous round, some people purchased lambo tickets at around 17 dollars. Now, each ticket costs only around 5 dollars and it's normal that more tickets are sold in the current round.

It's not allowed to force users to post in a specific thread or give them any bonus for doing that.
The campaign manager isn't doing so and I don't think there's any problem.

What do you mean by second stage password?
Do you mean 2FA? If so, it's not a good idea to use 2FA for securing your wallet. If you want to use 2FA, you have to rely on third parties and that defeats the purpose of bitcoin.
Generate the keys on an air gapped device and keep them safely. That's enough.

OP isn't looking for a wallet. He/She is looking for a portfolio tracker.
It's not safe to connect your wallet to internet every time you want to check the value of your coins, especially if you use a close source wallet like exodus.

What do you mean by a mining pool with low difficulty?
It's not that each pool has its own difficulty. Difficulty is a value that determines how it's difficult to mine a block and that's the same number for anyone trying to mine bitcoin regardless of which pool they have joined.

You may want to buy 1 lottery ticket just to be in the lottery. You are right. That costs you only 1 satoshi and you won't lose anything. But generally speaking, it's not a good idea to buy lottery tickets.
In the last round of weekly lottery, there were around 189 million tickets and the prize pool was around 0.256 BTC. This means that  buying lottery tickets is actually like playing a game with the house edge of around 86%.

Yes.
Each of those small UTXOs adds around 150 satoshi to transactions size. Given that the fee rate used for the transaction in question was only 1.8 satoshi/byte, the fee added by each of them was lower than 547 satoshi and the sender didn't lose anything.

Satoshi has never posted in bitcointalk.org.
At the time Satoshi was active, the forum was being hosted on bitcoin.org and it was accessible through forum.bitcoin.org.

In August 2011, theymos moved the forum from forum.bitcoin.org to bitcointalk.org.

This has nothing to do with bitcoin decentralization.
In brief, bitcoin is decentralized because there is no need to a third party for making a transaction and there are thousands of nodes distributed around the world that help the network.

I just made a search to see what exactly Samsung is going to do.
If the news is real, as you mentioned in your topic, they will launch a cryptocurrency exchange. But I couldn't find any news about allowing people to buy their products with bitcoin. So they don't seem to have any plan to accept bitcoin as a payment method.

You should consider the big difference between golden ticket price and weekly lottery ticket price as well.
Each golden ticket costs 25000 satoshi while each weekly lottery tickets costs only 1 satoshi.

In the last round of lambo lottery, you could have around 0.000087% chance to win 4.910 BTC with paying 25,000 satoshi.
In the last round of weekly lottery, you could have around 0.013% chance to win 0.128 BTC with paying the same amount.

The prize in the last round of lambo lottery was 38 times bigger than the main prize of the last round of the weekly lottery. But If I had put the same amount of money in each of them, my chance to win the main prize of weekly lottery was 162 times bigger than winning the lambo.

This means that participating in the weekly lottery is more reasonable than lambo lottery.
Note that I only considered the main prize of the weekly lottery. Apparently, the chance to be among winners in the weekly lottery is even bigger than what calculated above.

Your suggestion will not work. OP has been banned due to plagiarism and it's no longer possible for him/her to improve the posts quality.
This has already been mentioned in the previous posts made in this thread.  

Edit:
I just reported the topic to moderators and asked them to lock it.

OP is now banned and is no longer able to post in the forum.
It seems that OP understood that he/she needs merit to rank up and tried to earn the first merit with copy-pasting the post made by Gamsa01 above in another thread.

I think The Cryptovator has answered your first question in the topic shared by tranthidung well.

Assume that you have a 100 dollar bill and you want buy something which is worth 50 dollars.
You give your 100 dollar bill to the seller and get a 50 dollar bill. Bitcoin works in the same way. If you have an UTXO worth 0.1 BTC and want to pay someone 0.05 BTC, you make a transaction with your 0.1 BTC. Your transaction will have two outputs. The one will go to the recipient and the remaning amount which is called change is sent back to you.

Now let's go to your second question.
Assume that you want to have 0.1 BTC and wants to pay someone 0.6 BTC. Your transaction will have two outputs. One of them will be 0.6 BTC which goes to the recipient and the change will be 0.4 BTC minus transaction fee.
If the change address is same as the sending address, everyone can know which of outputs is the change and which one is owned by the recipient.  In this way, you may hurt your privacy.
With using a different address as your change address and choosing the outputs amounts in the way no one can know which of them is the change, you can improve your privacy

To add to OP:
The other criteria that can be used for identifying the change address and the recipient's address is the script type used for the addresses.
For example, if you make a transaction from a segwit address to a legacy address and the change is sent to a segwit address, the legacy output probably belongs to the recipient and the segwit output is probably the change.

This website is safe, if it's used offline.
In your first post, you said that the website generates funded addresses.
The tool in question is open-source and it's guaranteed that the keys are generated 100% random. So, it's impossible that it generates an address that has been already used.

I don't know what you mean by account.
There are around 2²⁵⁶ valid  bitcoin private keys. So, if a private key has been generated randomly, it's very very unlikely that it has been generated before.
If there's a website which generate private keys that have been generated before, it means that it doesn't generate the private keys randomly and should be never used.

You should never use a private key you don't know how it has been generated.
You should never use a private key generated online.

If you generate a private key randomly, it's impossible that it has been generated by someone else before.
So, you can't have a private key which has been generated randomly and its associated address has been already funded.
