Sad. If segwit on Litecoin have success maybe will be aplied on Bitcoin and solve the problem of huge fees.

Just goes to show that it's more about marketing than actual practicality as a currency.

A lot of european flags in this map, looks like Bitcoin is more popular now in Europe.

Do you think that the problem will be solved? I wonder how, if so far, they have tried to turn things around and everyone has remained in their own interests.

Wow that's a high fee. Wouldn't have been a problem a couple years ago when we were at $420, but now those fees are starting to sting. Still, I've sent more money than that recently and paid much less of a fee, but it took forever to confirm.
This is why bitcoin is impractical as a form of day to day money, and it'll get worse if the price goes higher.

The high fee and the recent inclusion of fee in Coinbase actually made me learn how to create and broadcast transaction myself.
As I do not need a super fast transaction confirmation, I actually just include tiny fee and just wait a few hours/a few days. So far all of them get confirmed eventually. Record low fee for me was 0.25sat/byte.

Core devs decided it would be a brilliant idea to create a fee market and not raise the 1mb blocksize. They are controlled by a profiteering corporation called Blockstream whose unstated goal is to change Bitcoin from a peer to peer cash system into a settlement network, against the wishes of the users. This is why they want as little on chain scaling as possible. After years of stalling they finally offer segwit which gives meager capacity improvements with a consensus threshold set so high it won't be achieved. Just more stalling while they develop their lightening hub so they can force you off the main chain and pay them fees. Pretty obvious what the fuck is going on.

I wonder what will happen if the bitcoin price reaches something like 5000$. So sending 0.001 btc, ie. 5$, then sending 1$ will not be possible as that would mean spending 2.5$ in fees.

Why don't you just send it with 0 fees if you have a problem with it? Fees aren't mandatory  .

If it keeps rising, shouldn't the fees actually come down with the rising price ? Otherwise, I don't understand how will the fees be sustained.

Fucking Chinese miners cock-blocking SegWit, that's why we have high fees. Nevermind jonald_fyookshill, blaming Core for everything, because he's paid to

Now you've got the much better way for setting the fee manually. You could set the minimal fee for the transaction. Probably you'll get it confirmed in a short, only because of the increasedprice the fee looks high as well the transaction amount too is low.

Too much bitcoin transactions and there is no actual fuck was given to do something about it yet. People just kept on offering hard forks to the community and no one wants to compromise. For sure we'll all see more of this in the future, so expect higher and higher fees will be paid.

This is one of the main issues when it comes to bitcoin today, the TX fee is so high that it kinda makes buying things with it not even an option due to it cutting into the price and just making me want to use another method to purchase something. I think this is due to the scaling solution issues that we had in the BTC community and the issues relating to people just trying to out-compete each-other for the higher tx to be able to be confirmed faster.
It's pretty shitty and we're all here praying for something to come fast out of Segwit, well some of us that is.
