Because of human habits as well as monetary and fiscal policy in countries, there is a great barrier to using bitcoin. In order for people to use and access it and to recognize the value of the world, society as well as the government in each country needs to understand and regulate and regulate money. For the currency, the value of it will be universally recognized and used by people.

Of course bitcoin can hold. Holding bitcoin to wait for it's value to increase needs patience, a long one. But if we will happen to get the value we want, i think it's worth the wait. We can buy new things for us and the people surrounding us so its a good thing.

I think, what you say is true. is there a solution for this? to reduce the value of transaction costs and the delays that occur most often. this is a problem we must solve together.

Investors are not worried about Bitcoin being used as a currency, they want it to be used as a Store of Value. It would help to

push the price, if Bitcoin could do both. As it stands, Bitcoin is failing as a currency, because greedy miners are exploiting the

temporary scaling problems with Legacy Bitcoin use. SegWit should have been adopted by now, but politics are stalling the

implementation of SegWit on the merchant side. We are losing this battle, but the war is far from over... the secret weapon is

going to be the Lightning Network. {The Nuclear bomb, ending the War} 

I understand what you are trying to convey. There is no doubt that Bitcoin right now is not what we want it ti be and frankly it has become a big disappointment. However, we have to remember that Bitcoin is essentially a decentralized kind of thing with nobody can be claiming to be its supreme head unlike other cryptocurrencies like Ethereum which has a figure head. I still believe that this is just a temporary obstacle that Bitcoin will eventually hurdle successfully but it will really take some time and maybe even some disunity within the Bitcoin community. Had I wish that Bitcoin has a leader which has an authority to speak and decide for the whole network and project.

i am convinced that most of the transactions we see in the mempool are spam attack transactions possibly done by the miners themselves to increase their revenue by creating a fee competition that increases it. with more mining decentralization this will stop and also they can't keep it up forever.

and as you can see bitcoin is holding. you may not see the rational behind it but that doesn't matter, it is happening. that is what matters.

yes. you can hold bitcoin. hold to die 

As bitcoin is facing a problem right now, I would be changing the percentage of my portfolio. I still believe in bitcoin, but it would not be wise not to go and hunt a much more good fish in the market.

It is not really about that "not trusting" bitcoin.
Every investors wants profit and we want it to be at a higher level.
This altcoins can give that to us. So what could happen?
By this people buying altcoin using bitcoin then the bitcoin he used will be in the air. That is just the same as a dump.
Regarding the slow transactions, it would matter more with merchants.
