RE: How much of a future does bitcoin have with $16 transaction fees?

in #bitcoin7 years ago

The high fees are an issue of trying to move smaller amounts but if trying to move large amounts of money they are still very competitive. I agree that for bitcoin to have utility as a currency, fees need to come down but if it is only used as a settlement layer for things like the lightning network etc, fees are acceptable! Plus if a large portion of transaction are taken off the block chain, fees should come down anyway.
