I would have say that other projects like BCH are better in terms of low transaction fees but isn't this applicable to all other crypto projects too? XRP, LTC, BCH have low gas fee, better than bitcoin but if all these altcoins can surge to where bitcoin is today won't their gas fee surge as well? This is something that's yet to be fixed in Crypto space
It would most likely be the case with BCH and LTC. As with XRP, yes, fees are indeed cheap, and that’s because the platform is centralized in the first place; to the point that I’d honestly just use PayPal or a creditcard lol.
Again, layer 2 solutions like LN are the way to go. It’s just that people refuse to try it out even though LN wallets(like Phoenix) have been A LOT better in terms of UX. That, and that unfortunately exchanges still doesn’t accept LN. Apparently Kraken is going to receive LN deposits in early 2021 though.
