I was wondering at the very high of the transaction fee. Does it increase with bitcoins? Or will it be resolved and return to previous transaction fees?

After seeing your thread I am curious as well on how they can do it, Segwit is in control of the situations they surely doing something to work it out let's just hope it is a good choice because I think there are surely some that are against on this smaller transaction fees and let's understand them because they surely put their efforts and time in bring up the value of bitcoin and we can not push the majority of people that are complaining about the high fees.

the current fee that we feel is still high, segwit still trying to make things better especially about transaction fees. but one of the things that I feel now is the faster delivery time, whereas the total fee I spent a few months ago is the same as the present one. of course there are significant changes, but not all of them but this is quite helpful at all.

Segwit will not have an impact until a lot of wallets include the segwit format addresses. Right now I know that Bitcoin Core 0.15 will have the segwit format addresses so you can easily send segwit transactions. Currently only advanced users can do that, so it's still limited to using the console. Once it's on the GUI i predict segwit transactions will be used a lot.

Until then you can wait for the weekend to make transactions really cheap.

I think the transaction fee depends on the bitcoin value, don't do Frequent trading transactions if you don't need in urgent.

The fee may increase further. Wang Chun and his F2Pool have reneged from the New York Agreement. All the other major players are still supporting the NYA, including Bobby Lee (BTCC), Valery Vavilov (Bitfury), and Marek Palatinus (Slush Pool). But without the support from F2Pool, I don't think that they will get the required hash power to implement the hard fork in November.

Yes right now fee is really high but this will not remain same for next few months when lightening network will be activated fee will be almost zero. Off chain transactions will be possible within bitcoin ledger that will allow users to send bitcoin without any network confirmation and fee for such transactions will be almost zero.

I don't know actual date of its activation but next update after segwit is lightening network.

This is one of the major issue bitcoin are facing and its annoying.the transaction fee are unreasonable.i hope the lighntning network that there talking about really solved the issue..it will be easier and more convient for everybody if the transaction will be reduce or no fee at all.

You can decide how much to pay for fees, but more you pay and more the transaction is faster
But in generally now the fee is high, we hope in the future it become lower

I don't see anything wrong in the fees. /s

Honestly, the fees are so high that you cannot send any penny transaction anymore unlike in the days, and I'm not talking about its equivalent in USD. Back then, 10k satoshis would be the most common fee that you could pay and your tx would be confirmed within the next block but now, you need to pay AT LEAST 211k sats for your tx to confirm.

I hope LN solves the problem for this.

Fees grow when there is a spam attack, and when it stops they quickly go down. Also, you need to develop some habits that will help you to reduce your fees. For example, you can pay to many addresses in the same transaction, so when you do some transaction, ask yourself if maybe you want to do another, like depositing to an exchange or something. Always check current fee status on https://bitcoinfees.21.co/ - don't trust your wallet and don't overpay if you don't need to get confirmation in next block. A little wait will not hurt you, but will help to save you a good amount of fees. If you have to do a lot of small transactions, you may want to use some online wallet that processes withdrawals in batches - this way you'll have to pay only 0.0001 BTC per transaction. Just don't keep all your money online. If you are sending coins from exchange to exchange, you can do it via altcoins, it's much cheaper than BTC.

Where is my ring of blades...

the transaction fees can come down if:
1. spam attack stops or somehow prevented!
2. miners stop filling blocks with their own crap (BitFury)
3. miners stop mining empty blocks (AntPool, F2Pool)
4. hashrate doesn't drop like a while ago because of BCH so that blocks are found on a regular basis.
5. we get a capacity increase (something like what SegWit does).
6. the wallets fix their broken fee estimation and fee increase steps so that decreases the rate at which fees rise!

Fee is OK for large transactions but is really PITA when you need to do micro transactions. My last two where micro and fee was 1/4 which really doesn't make sense at all. I am hoping for some solution as well and trying to use ETH in the meantime for small payments.

I feel the high transaction fees is not something that will leave us anytime soon and I don't see it as a challenge though because I still carry out some transactions recently and the fee was relatively cheap even with reasonable waiting time which is something I am impressed about. But we should be mindful that as we are happy about increase in price we should not ignore transaction fees.

I think that transaction fee is just the stagnant price of it. Because btc has a growing price. That fee could would be seen as a low value until the price goes up. There might be even a chance that that fee would increase as the price increases.So for me, if you want a faster transaction, better pay the minimum fee which is i think.001. Any value lower than that could be of less priority.

Bitcoins value does affect the transaction fees (not in the amount of Bitcoin used as a fee per se, but the value of transactions fees in USD). That cannot be changed.
But transaction fees will go down once the Lightning Network is implemented.
