My Bitcoin core wallet wants me to pay $70 to transfer $500... no thanks.

There is no fucking way I'd ever pay $70 to send $500.

This is fucking stupid. 

I just can't help but think that the miners are manipulating the market in order to squeeze users.

I guess my Bitcoins are just going to not move.

unless your really need the money i don't think anyone will pay that huge amount of fee.  bitcoin fees has become really annoying these days i hope they listen to or voices and try to fix this problem otherwise it will affect bitcoin in a bad way

You can try to convert your bitcoin to altcoin just like dogecoin maybe.
and after that, convert again your dogecoin to bitcoin.

I think you just need to wait a bit, and soon the Commission will be reduced.
