why has the bitcoin fee for each transaction recently been so high?
It was easier to send 10-15 usd before but these days the fees are more than that.
Any wallet which takes less fee?Im fine with delayed confirmation.
Demand of bitcoin is increasing and people who transact on it everyday is increasing too so that affects the fee when we are sending to other address. The wallet that I use now is blockchain.info and it's recommended fee is changing from time to time so I tried to transact today and fee isn't that much.

IMHO you can send 100 satoshi per byte and try to push the transaction with free accelerator like viabtc.
If you did not mean to pay a very small fee for your transaction viabtc will not accept and also it's hard to get accelerated there it's always try again later.
