I have always traveled using bitcoin XRP. Transactions through this coin is also very cheap. This is certainly not 4 cents but the cost is also below one dollar but the trading volume and reliability of the asset is much more. I hope the miners will understand that the constant growth of prices for the transaction will not bring them income and after the price of bitcoin will increase we will not see the prices that were in December 2017.
Comparing Bitcoin to XRP is not relevant at all.Yeah it do have also under a dollar fee but it wont really be similar because we do know on what BTC had achieved. Regarding on the news that whale is confident enough to make such transfer. If i do have those funds i would still hesitate to make such transaction. Its great to see and this is a good thing where those haters of bitcoin in the past will definitely change up their perception towards it. We do have seen increase in fees but now its quite understandable that fees would be less due to less transactions in the network.
