i have to quote myself from another BTC is dead blabla thread:
Right now i sent 1.0 BTC from my electrum wallet to binance exchange. It took 35 minutes and costs 40$... Its not the fastest and cheapest way, but its by far not that bad you all are telling

I am not "telling", I gave you a link.
Click it and watch for yourself the evolution of that transaction, fees included.
According to fork.lol the average (!) tx fee is around 1000 sat/B:
That's unbelievable, I have't seen such high fee ever...

I usually check the fees before sending out a transaction, but now I won't send any transaction, for sure.
There's no possible need for me that can justify to start a transaction with a kind of fee, I'll sit and wait to let the dust settle...
I'm sorry for your transaction, I have already tried to accelerate your previous 3.05 BTC tx but in vain, ViaBTC is full, everybody is pushing the button to accelerate the transactions...
LOL I tried also to raise the fee of my second transaction, and the Bitcoin Core Wallet popped a window saying that the fee cannot be raised.
The network is simply blocked.
