We can't just yell on our closet to stop people sending bitcoin. You can do it alone and stop sending for now to avoid high fees but we don't know if this will stay for long or it will be solved in due time. I'm neutral on this thing and it's better to be calm and watch the market play and it's sick to see the unconfirmed transactions increases.
Yeah calm is the answer of this crowding of full transactions today. Many of the bitcoin holders today are affected by the FUD happening specially the promotion of this BCH is the true Bitcoin. Hope the storm will settle soon because the transaction was too high.

Alright, here's a suggestion that can help without cramping peoples style too much. If you move some money over to Coinbase or something like that, and have it linked to their visa card, you can spend as much as you want any time you want, and the transactions take place off the blockchain. They pay out Visa in big mass payments, which consolidates the transactions. I know people don't like the whole "soft" wallet thing, but think of it a different way, more like your buying prepaid Bitcoin Visa cards that can be recharged.
You can't stop people sending their btc from wallet to another. What if they badly need the btc and they are something need to pay for? You must need to convince more miners in order to help and confirm the pending transaction in bitcoin network 
This is a big help. instead of promoting a cancellation of all transaction in bitcoin blockchain.

Why are you all trying to use bitcoin like money? Bitcoin is for profit, like an investment. If you make a few thousand on your investment you pay a “brokerage” fee (exchange fee, transaction fee) to sell it. Big fucking deal! Stop trying to use bitcoin to buy shit! Hold it until you’re ready to sell and make your profit.
Stop bitching about transaction fees and delays. Google wallet is free and fast. Go use that to buy shit instead of bitcoin.

I have mixed feelings about this. Sure I want the blockchain to calm down a bit, but I don't think a sort of "Earth Hour" solution is the best way to address this. Soon what, we need to do this every week? I'd like this attempt to be successful though, just for the curiosity if it would actually work out or not.
Currently we have 235,635 Unconfirmed Transactions[1] though, still a lot, but a lot better than the recent 280,000. Hopefully it comes down more.

A lot of people is in need of money right now because of christmas season so I don't think bitcoin transaction can be prohibited though I feel the grudge of those people experiencing unconfirmed transactions we still cannot ask everyone to do something in favor of you the best thing is find a good way to solve your issues and continue hoping bitcoin will soon get better
Its sounds funny but if we all can make this blockchain can take a rest for a short period of time. But the question is we are not the only one who are using bitcoin in this furom there are a lots of people who are always using bitcoin outside in this furom. I think they are the one who always making sending bitcoin transaction.
Yeah, we can make it take a rest and then what?
Are we going to turn into some communist country with monthly ratios os gasoline and cars driving on certain days based on their number plates?
Even if we do stop making transactions right now the numbers in the mempool will drop.
It's Christmas, two weekends, New Years Eve, the numbers are even now dropping from 280k to 240k.
But what after it?
Once activity returns to normal what will a boycott do? Other than hurting trust in the coin.
Not feasible. My income is mostly automated. It costs too much to shutdown and restart.
I think maybe we have to see a big delay of the transaction in this few day later because until now the transaction is getting bigger and waiting for the confirmations. I agree that the network needs to refresh a day or two and after that, I hope the network can run smooth and the transactions don't need to wait for a long time to get confirmed.
Sounds interesting, bitcoin network is too congested. Give it a holiday! :-)

yes true, the transaction is not only done by this forum community but the whole world who know and have bitcoin. it seems to be difficult to do, too many transactions that I think is not fair. bitcoin is out of control, especially with the current price, everyone has the right to hold or discard it.

I think it's because of congested transactions on the blockchain, it could be annoying sometimes though, but we hope to have a change for the better soon.
I just tweeted this tweet:
Would be good if all of us started tweeting something like that xD Let's make some noise!

In as much as that is the best option for this present situations it will be very hard for people to stop transactions for a day in bitcoin. The amount of unconfirmed transactions are increasing day in day out the blockchains are congested and the transactions fees is on the increase but that will not stop the people from carrying out transactions. Your advice is the best but only if the people can act like one big family and stop as you have said.
Hello author! I understand you very much! But you really think that you can just ask and people will stop make any transaction? It will be paradise if all people here will be like big family and stop make it but I don't believe in it!
It is not impossible. People are known to do even more amazing things when they come together on something.
Perhaps organizing an event of sorts is in order. Like the Earth Hour when people turn their lights off, just for Bitcoin, or something like that.
People aren't just going to not use their Bitcoin, but people should try to consolidate transactions, and take it easy to some point if you can.
Please kindly stop making Bitcoin Transactions for a day or two...The Blockchain needs to catchup!
Let's do a blackout for Bitcoin Transactions.
288000+ Unconfirmed Transactions.

I totally agree with you.. A lot of unconfirmed transaction in bitcoin now. I thought I was the only who noticed this one. That's why I did not have any transaction with bitcoin started last day.Let's do a blackout for Bitcoin Transactions.

Yes this is a nice idea, although i do not believe people will do this and if just in case we do this for a day most likely the next day transaction after the blackout will just be doubled.
The blockchain really need to have a breather but somebody should think a permanent solution.
