Yeah, kiklo is a well known altcoin troll. Almost all of the professional anti-SegWit trolls and UnlimitedCoin worshippers are heavily active in the altcoin world. That's not surprising, because all they hope is to destabilize Bitcoin for that their altcoins become more valuable.

I am also heavily active in the altcoin world. I also hope that my few altcoins will become much more valuable.
But it's a big difference in math. I hope that Bitcoin will continue to grow and my altcoins to also grow vs Bitcoin.
So my math tells: if Bitcoin reaches $2000 and [insert altcoin name here] reaches 0.1BTC I am a happy hippo already.

There's no point trolling Bitcoin. Although slower than I'd wish, Bitcoin evolves and all the altcoins with "Bitcoin" in the name (under pretexts that they are the evolution Bitcoin needs) are only silly attempts to gain marketing, not thinking that they lose more than they gain with that.

Obviously, not all banks are born equal

I thought that my bank is good. Yours is even better! Cheesy

(In my case though I have to get over a certain amount of money in that account each month, else I have to start paying for their services.)

Just Bitcoin is asset, not money. If you think like that the comparison with banks don't hold so well anymore (imho) and then you can also understand that the transactions are better safe than super fast.
(If you want super fast you either pay a fat fee, either turn to faster coins).

There is no point in requesting the users to hold back their transactions. Because most of the transactions are from margin traders and gamblers.

I wish to see a service/website that tells which sites / services have the bigger percents of transactions.
I somehow tend to believe that on-chain gambling is too expensive to worth it and the "normal" gambling sites should not have that many deposits and withdrawals in so small amounts of time.
But I also don't have a good explanation for this wave of transactions so my math may have a glitch somewhere...
