Shut the front door
I'll just pay 0.001 and get a super fast confirmation, besides I'm not a slave to bitcoin only and if I see the fees are getting too much for not worth transacting bitcoins then I'll just find an alternative, it's not like we only have to stick with this coin.
I don't even need to buy bitcoin miner to mine I could easily pay the money to buy 3 times more mining machines for an alternative coin and hold until price goes up. If I feel too much pressure what other choice do I have?
