What kind of bullshit is this? a $3 fee on a $20 transaction and still not confirmed, I use to like bitcoin but I am hating it now more and more each day
Tell me how bitcoin isn't fucking up? only good thing about is the price of it

Be patient, it will be confirmed soon, do not worry too much, this will not happen for a long time, it will soon be fixed. Developers are preparing a 2mb segwit for bitcoin, things will be faster, so keep using bitcoin.

Ok but how do you justify a $3 fee on a $20 transaction? you never see this with banks!
When I spend $1.00 with my bank card I only pay $1.00

You can thank miners for not activating segwit already. There's nothing we can do until the situation is resolved. For the time being, if you cannot afford making transactions in the bitcoin blockchain, use some alt.

Also, run a UASF node to scare miners into doing the right thing:

Miners can activate segwit right now in the current BIP141 without the need of anything else.

the same way you justified receiving a lot of small inputs in your wallet leading to a huge transaction size.

currently you have 7 small transaction outputs each of them worth about $3 and in bitcoin you pay fees based on the size of your transaction in bytes not value you are transferring!

next time ask the service that is paying you to keep it until it is a larger amount and then pay you!

I don't. You can remedy the situation by selling Bitcoin for fiat and take it from there without paying exorbitant fees to greedy miners.

The fee does not depend on the amount of money you are sending, you could have sent a million dollars worth of bitcoin and you would still have got the very same fee and the very same delay, the fee will depend on the size of the transaction, this is one of the most basic differences between bitcoin and other payment systems out there.

[The Sceptical Chymist]

Bro I totally hear your pain.  I was just going to send 0.022BTC, and my Mycelium wallet told me I have to use over $5 for the "economic" option.  Fuck that!  I should know better than to sell, but I kinda need the fiat dough right now.  But I'm not spending that much to send $45 worth of bitcoin.

yes that trasnaction is     120.108 sat/B
https://bitcoinfees.21.co/  this is delay : 4-119

Whole system of sending in BTC and fee calculating is fucking broken.
We should setup sat/B not whole amount because whole amount means BS guys : )
Why there is no option  to chose sat/b per fee ?

[HatakeKakashi]

Like before I like the transaction of bitcoin because it takes only few hours before the transaction confirm but this now many people experienced the transaction not yet confirmed like me now its more than 30 hours until now . My transaction fee is good and high but I think as of now it not depends on the fee I dont know why each day many transaction is not yet confirmed if this happen everyday for sure many investor will not interest so I think they need to update the system so it will back again like before.

Depends of what wallet are you using.
You could also make an estimation of the size of the transaction based on the number of inputs, then set the fee accordingly

You can boost your confirmation time with this free service: https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/
Or if you are willing to pay, you can get a tx confirmated in 1~4 hours with this one: https://pushtx.btc.com/

Otherwise, you will need to wait even if you fees are enought. That's what bitcoin is turning into nowadays.

I was just going to send 0.022BTC, and my Mycelium wallet told me I have to use over $5 for the "economic" option.

Who would have imagined that Bitcoin would become so expensive? We need this fixed asap.

viabt accepts only 100 accelerated transactions/hour and is almost unusable when the menpool is too big, like now.

and accelerate using pushtx is expensive, almost $10 for an unconfirmed transaction that I used to test, too much for a $20 transaction

[Sadlife]

Actually it does not depend on how much you're sending it will have the same fee the bitcoin network has to much traffic that is why there are delays and the miners are putting high priority on transactions with high fees but this is only optional to make your transaction faster.
As soon as segwit gets activated all this problem about delay and unconfirmed will be gone.
