With all of the madness surrounding bitcoin, bitcoin cash, etc, bitcoin transaction fees have been well on the rise.

This image shows the massive rise in transaction fees over the last couple days. Fees were very high around the middle to the end of August and now have spiked to about two times that.

The fee has dropped down a bit over the last few hours but it's still recommended to just use another coin such as ethereum or litecoin for quicker and cheaper transaction times unless you really want to spend $10+ on a slow transaction.
