Ideally bitcoin should be able to process approximately 60+ transactions per second, but because of miners switching to BCH for bigger profit transactions gets slower. This would mean that bitcoin still needs a lot of work until it's ready for mass adoption.

Isn’t maximum about 7 transactions/second at the moment? Are you referring to full theoretical Segwit rate? Only about 10% of transactions are Segwit at the moment.

Average there have been 6.6 blocks/hour for last 7 days, so it is not a problem at the moment

Mining difficulty will drop more than 25% in less than 24 hrs.

https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficulty

The current backlog will be cleared fast after that.

They are already, look at the Bitcoin Cash pump. But just like spamming the Bitcoin network is a futile and short lived strategy, the pump money on BCash is also short lived and futile. Sooner or later Roger Ver and whoever else is orchestrating this attack will run out of money and things will go back to normal, because there is no fucking way that out of nowhere all this transaction growth is organic and not part of an altcoin pump and dump scheme.

I think you're wrong. I know people that are noobies to crypto who are buying bcash because they think bitcoin is too expensive. It's easy to imagine that this is the case all over the world.

It's incredible that this horribly broken site is still believed. The difficulty is going to drop 1-2% only. See, https://fork.lol/pow/retarget, or https://btc.com/stats/diff, or https://cryptothis.com/diff/.

It seems, that btc demand is so high, that the current blockchain size can't clear the backlog. Hopefully Segwit takes off soon.

Average block size grows slowly

I wish big service providers would implement Segwit..

How can number of daily transactions grow, when blocks have been full for at least two weeks in a row?

https://btc.com/stats/block-size

https://blockchain.info/charts


Block size has not grown as much as daily transactions. How is there room for a transaction growth? There is of course demand, but how is there room?

Both blockchain info and btc.com show that there were 400 000 transactions during last 24 hrs.

It is coming, just be patient. Even only a few wallets are already segwit ready, so sites are probably working with wallet services to integrate the new improvements. Just because technology is available doesn't mean instant implementation. Everyone is new at this but slowly they will get there. Even the segwit transactions on the network are taking time to grow, but it is definitely growing.

But yes, can't wait for the sites I'm using to start segwit already so I can move over. Really looking forward to less fees and what not.

Maybe  the explanation is simultaneous growth in block size and number of blocks/hour? Of course the latter will be fixed with difficulty adjustment.
