Been in same boat regarding any transactions using MEW. Tokens are especially difficult to transfer at the moment. Not going to pay $7+ to get my funds moved about it's turning ETH into BTC!
How very dare you Sir. Don't ever put your $hitcoin in the same sentence as the mighty BTC! In BTC we have a store of value. The only thing your $hitcoin has is kittehs.
p.s. i'm selling a very rare blue and gold sparkly kitteh for $100,000 if anyone's interested.
