If i'm not wrong,there were almost 300k unconfirmed transactions during christmas making it very difficult to even sell bitcoins to enjoy the high price.Such a situation even made steem to get back from accepting bitcoin payments.
But now,today there were only 10,000 unconfirmed transactions.

Now, it's around 6000 unconfirmed transactions, It's too good for us. The fastest and cheapest transaction fee is currently 120 satoshis/byte it's around 27,120 satoshis. according to
