yes, bitcoin is useless right now because of huge fees
I agree but if you can use ViaBTC accelarator properly then even old low fees transaction are getting confirmed and i have done this recently and got confirmed in 2 hrs. So it is that you have to put your efforts little more for this benefit.
Accelerating Bitcoin transactions using ViaBTC is one of the important tools that are out there if anyone who has a stuck transaction needs a faster confirmation rate. I am thankful that those people mining Bitcoin released the tool because I have used it so many times and had my transactions confirmed within 24 hours without having to
spend like $20 per transaction just so I can send like $0.50 to another person with a Bitcoin client.
Really now. I get that fees are higher right now but 20$ fee for a .5$ transaction? Would you really send 18k sat and pay .0072 in fees? Better to stay away from dust tx's for now and learn to maximize every transaction.
Yes Viabtc helps, but it'd be better if people doesn't intentionally set low fees and then just use the accelerator. It's only got 100 slots hourly after all.
And as for topic, BTC is still a great investment tool. Better than ever in fact. Just not much for micro-payments as it is now.
