Hello. I'm sorry I'm not very transaction-savvy, today my segwit transactions are stuck with no confirmations for 6+ hrs, does everyone have the same issue? Is the network going mad because of recent price changes? My fees were set to default in electrum (5.20 sat/vbyte), a few days ago I was able to get two confirmation in less than 10 mins.. Thank you!

Before sending Bitcoin from Electrum wallet you should check mempool and set them manually or you can try switching from default static fee to ETA fee or Mempool option.

There are a lot of transactions in mempool now, so you can wait for network to cool down or you can bump your transaction if you used RBF replace-by-fee option and if you need faster confirmation (for more information you can read GuideHow to cancel Bitcoin transaction).
