Source:
Scale and decrease the number of transactions in the Bitcoin network significantly reduced transfer fees. Soglasno data , one of the «whales» translated 48 thousand coins and paid only 4 cents of the fee. He transferred $ 290 million and spent a couple of cents. Such conditions may not offer any Bank.
theWhere the lowest transaction fees
In 2017, fees for transfer of bitcoins reached $ 50. The network performed nearly 400 thousand transactions daily. Since then, the number of transactions has halved. There were rumors about that earlier detractors intends inflated the number of transactions using the network for other purposes. It was assumed that a high charge transfer might be caused by the increasing popularity of cryptocurrency.
Now the situation is back to normal. Selecting a price of 3 Satoshi per byte, you can bring the $ 290 million in BTC and pay just 4 cents. I can only imagine how much would have to pay for the transfer through any Bank.
theWhat is Segwit and Lightning Network
Segwit is increasing the size of blocks in the Bitcoin network. This helps to reduce the fees for the transfer and increase the number of transactions in a single block.
Lightning Network – another solution for scaling. He has no connection to the network. It uses a series of micropayments, which can be thousands per second and cost a minimal amount. As you use these solutions, the cost of transactions will continue to decline.
