For me this is no big problem, since the primary use for me is storage of value, but high fees will certainly affect people who need to make transactions on a daily basis.
Doesn't matter that much if the transaction done less than 20 in daily basis, he's only spending few dollars worth for sending money everywhere, compare it when you're using western union
No, it does matter, what if you want to buy coffee with bitcoins, you will have t pay way more transaction fees as compared to the the price of one cup of coffee.
So yup, it's a bit unfair, that the fees is increasing day by day and we are unable to do anything to get rid of this problem, it only depends on the decision of miners.
yeah just don't buy coffee with bitcoin then, better cash out all of your bitcoin first. i primarily see its function like western union to send money not for daily expense, you're making hard your life by using currency which not popular in real life
