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?

I advice you to make deposits now for future betting, as it seems that we are going to face expensive transaction fees for quite a time. Probably until we get another trend on cryptocurrency market. Right now NFT on Bitcoin blockchain are killing network and whole idea of Bitcoin. The situation is similar to expensive transaction in Ethereum network and popularity of DEX. That trend started to lose its power when metaverses were announced and people have switched their attention to it. Right now Bitcoin is following Ethereum path imho. So I see two options for you, make deposits now and keep balance on gambling platforms, or wait for months for lower fees.
