There are thousands of unconfirmed transactions lately.core team is there any plan?

One plan was already deployed, that was the segwit activation, but wallets and exchanges are still taking to long to adopt it. I mean do you have a segwit enabled wallet right now? If you had, and other users had it to, and exchanges, etc, the fees would be a little lower, just because of that.
The other plan, is of course the development of the Lightning Network, and that one should solve the problems once and for all. The problem is, that no one knows when this will happen, and people are not very patient normally. Bitcoin exploded to soon, and most people are just searching for fast profits, and don't understand that they need to wait for the technology to mature.

Oh man, this is exactly the case. Bitcoin went from a bubble punching bag by the mainstream media into investment sensation seemingly overnight. I mean, a few months ago predicting 10k by year end was extremely bullish. We've shattered that and are still way above it.

We could say this is a good problem to have, but it really isn't. Bitcoin could reverse its good reputation just as quick as it already did, which may turn off people for good. I really hope core implements a solution as soon as possible. It doesn't even have to be a long term one, just a band aid to get us through this will do.

A band aid is still not the solution to our problem with those transaction that has been for days, they should have increase the block size months ago so that the network can handle massive transaction, but they keep fighting over it and bitcoin cash was created, if this will continue in 3 more months might as well leave the boat and find a good ride.
