Yeah, there are a ton of unconfirmed transactions in the mempool right now ( around 55,000 at the moment ) so transactions will take a lot longer to confirm if the fees are lower.

During times of heavy congestion like this, you definitely want to use a higher fee than normal. Dynamic fees are previously mentioned a great tool to help ensure that good sized fees are used.

As long as you pay a high enough transaction fee your transaction will not become stuck and will not take a long time to confirm.

If your wallet has an option to use Dynamic fees, always use that. Dynamic fees means that the fee will be calculated based upon the current state of the network. Do not use fixed fees or a fixed fee rate.

If your wallet does not support Dynamic fees, I highly suggest that you switch to one that does. Otherwise, you can use http://bitcoinfees.21.co/ to get the recommended fee rate and calculate the transaction fee manually.

So the day before yesterday. i wanted to make a deposit in gaming site and now my deposit is stuck ( Low fee ) . i made a search and come to know that the BTC is under overload and i might not see this transaction in near future (it will take long time) IS this true ? and how long we are talking about here? and is there anything i can do to speed it or cancel it ? .Also i want to  play in that site now how do i do deposit and get it fast now ? .

If i want to make another deposit what is the recommended fee so i can get it now under this overload ?
