Especially after this halving the TX fees to make Bitcoin transactions is too much and unfair that we need to spend $25 or higher which means people who make frequent crypto transactions but want their transactions to be recorded on the blockchain will definitely see some altcoin as an alternative or at least until the fee becomes normal of BTC network which means the some of the coins will be actually adopted for payments which is great than just being used as bump and dump assets.
The transaction fees on the Bitcoin network are insanely high and I do not think anyone can make small payments now. The Ordinals have again started spamming the network causing congestion and an increase in fees. Altcoins are following the Bitcoin price path and it seems they will move in the same manner for some time now. If Bitcoin goes up they follow it, if it goes down they also go down there nothing else happening.
