I haven't read the news yet, but it's been several days since the transaction fee has been very high. I checked on https://mempool.emzy.de/ and this is what I see now.
As a gambler, I'm a bit worried if this trend will continue because I have some fraction of bitcoin that I'd like to use for gambling, especially for the NBA playoffs. So for my fellow gamblers, or those who really need to transact with their bitcoin, what are the best things to do now in order to save from fees and avoid having our transactions stay unconfirmed for too long?

It seems that the Hype around Ordinal is congesting the network and we can see that it's going to take a lot of time until fees go down. I think we all know it, Ordinal is the hot thing this year and traders, investors, and even scammers are taking advantage of this. There's a post made by @pooyah87 which tells how scams are increasing in numbers, which results into flooding the network and increasing the fees.
It's a really rough situation right now without the knowledge of when this is going to end.
