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://i.imgur.com/3ze8kLW.pngAs 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 suggest you should hold on, at least for a week or more, if it is not urgent, I have also halted my transactions for now to watch the transaction fees, it has decreased to $4 which I feel it's quite reasonable for me. With the current downtrend we are witnessing, it may likely decrease even further.
