Sorry first post so I'm not sure if I got the right forum to post in, so I'll apologize ahead of time.

Today I checked into https://blockchain.info/unconfirmed-transactions to see that the unconfirmed transactions has doubled to 285,000+ as I write this post.  As well as fees now being about $42.50 to send a transaction from my wallet.  How do you guys feel that this is going to affect bitcoin prices?

Is this going to bring back support for another fork?  I see Bitcoin Cash seems to be getting quite a bit more support now.  Will it bring Segwit2 back?  Or larger blocks? 

Is this good or bad for the miners?  I would think it's great for them due to the fees they get to collect now.  However for those who don't have hundred of dollars in bitcoins, now means we can't move smaller quantities of it anywhere, even to change it to another currency with smaller fees. 

Lots of questions, and looking for some input from you guys who have been around a while on where you people think this will go.
