So is there any way nowadays to speed up blockchain tx?
Whenever I send money using blockchain.info web interface my tx is unconfirmed for a while, but when I get money from 3rd party websites, say virvox, tx gets like 30 confs in 2-3 hrs WTF?
Pay a higher transaction fee.

Do you think thats the long term solution for Bitcoin?

There are two major complaints about bitcoin in 2017.

One is that transaction times are way up, thus the slowness people are experiencing.

The second is that transaction fees are way up -- now more than $1 each in most cases.

These both may indeed be big problems in the future.
