Another unreasonable high withdrawal fee Sad .

Mempool is ok for at least 5 hours now and yet the fee is at 0.00025, way too high!

I don't think the high fees for withdrawing BTC is a stake-only issue per se. I mean, it's no longer news that BTC network fees has been on the high side for a while now. Considering the withdrawal fees I've seen on other casinos and sports betting platforms, stake's fees are decent. Crypto Exchanges charge a flat $20+ as fees even my non-custodial wallet app takes between $14 - $19.  There's an alternative too. You could use dinabot (thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5106586.0) to do a coinswitch to TRX and then withdraw with 5% fee for the service.

Don't forget it's a general problem not just for stake users.
@nelson4lov, in a situation like where people complain about the fee. I will advise the stake team to integrate a low withdrawing fee option for BTC (by merging two or more withdraw in a single transaction)  for users who are not hasting for their withdrawal.
@btcgrin-vic, the mempool maybe ok at your end but the 0.00025 fees per transaction is not too high with what I am seeing here cause it not enough for a transaction to be confirmed in the next 6 blocks
