Are you kidding me? Have you not made a transaction over the past year??

Bitcoin's scaling problem is a huge issue. We need SegWit or some other method to increase the blocksize and increase the number of transactions that are confirmed over a period of time. We also need to reduce that transaction fee!

You need to look around yourself. Do you see many vendors accepting Bitcoin these days? No, I thought so. There is a reason for that and that is the scaling issue and the massive transaction fees. If fiat is playing better that Bitcoin then why would anyone change to Bitcoin? These issues need to be addressed for Bitcoin to become a success.
