as a small amount holders, transaction fees are killing me, i don't want to leave anything on exhangers so, having my dust on a wallet leave me in a sort of limbo.
Sending it to exchangers will cost a lot compared to what i have, then after some trading (with some luck to gain something) you have to send it back to the wallet, and some more fees have to be paid.
In 2018 i will change my tactic and somehow will find a way to keep some on a trusted exchanger for when this kind of dips occur.
I hear ya regarding fee, insanely high! Yesterday I made my first transfer from wallet to exchange and couldn't believe the fees which was something like £40. I selected a lower fee but then realised this the bad as never knew how long it would be delayed by! Two hours in, still not even one confirmation and because I wanted to purchase Bitcoin Cash quickly I purchase accelerator for hefty premium (should of seen that as a sign not to buy Bitcoin Cash!).
At first as this was my first send back to exchange I was going to send just a small amount worth £10... but the fee for this was £5, and that was considered low fee so still would have taken ages to reach exchange! How can Bitcoin survive long term with such high fees?!
