strongly agree an alternative is key.. ive taken the hit during the last month but definitely can't continue doing so.

For. Network fees are crazy high. Took the hit on one order but this week the fee has doubled so had to leave current order. It means the end of the green road to LB for me:( 21/11/23

Continue the conversation, everyone, and endeavor to bring about substantial changes. Maintain the momentum and actively contribute to making impactful adjustments. GAW

For. It would be great if LB could implement a crypto payment method with low volatility and consistently low network fees.

The more choice the better even when BTC calms down,not sure how feasible/easy this it to do, I sure don't know how, but hopefully something can get done.

Let's keep up with comments and try get things changed. GAW

For! LTC has always been great on fee's & speed. always thought it was beyond sufficient replacement

These btc network fees are ridiculous atm, there needs to be a change and an alternative payment system implemented even when btc calms down. I feel like the fees may price out a lot of people from LB and would force people to look for alternatives. Really hope this gets sorted soon as I love LB but I won’t be able to continue using if the fees remain this high. 21/11/23 18:05

Would xmr (monero) be a better option than btc for fees etc? I don't know an awful lot about crypro just throwing this in the mix

I want to make my monthly purchase but can't and won't with these fees. Anyone having any luck?

Think we are all on the same boat, I did check the fees at around 2am this morning 23/11 an the fees was down to just over £7 now it’s nearly 2pm same day an the fees gone back up to just over £9, just a waiting game and time of day seems to make a slight difference 💚

Is it hard to add another option like litecoin or whatever? Seems like an obvious thing to do but I don't know how it all works for littlebiggy admin... anyone shed any light on why this isn't already an option? is it laziness or some kind of obstacle... or is there a counter incentive... anyone know?

Sustain the dialogue, ladies and gentlemen, and strive to effect meaningful changes. Keep the momentum going and work towards making modifications. ............................GAW

FOR. 22/11/23. I’ve really had enough of paying high fees when there is simply no need for it! LB is just becoming too expensive especially as the pound is dropping against the dollar as well!! Bring in a new coin and change to ££ sterling!! Wake up LB it’s ridiculous!!

Continue the dialogue, everyone, and strive for substantial changes. Maintain the momentum and actively contribute to making impactful adjustments.

BITCOIN CASH (BCH) only decent alternative. Is what BTC should have been, but they didn't want to increase block size so it forked and now look...

Compare it for yourself if you must https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/transactionfees-btc-bch.html#3y

Yesterday, I encountered a challenge when cashing out £3000 to a recipient. The fee associated with this transaction amounted to £350. This fee was a result of the accumulation of various payments, and as a vendor, it's becoming increasingly challenging to manage these costs, especially considering the site fees. Balancing the need to absorb these fees while also keeping costs down for customers is proving to be quite a complex task. GAW

We need this sorted btc situation going to kill the site.

FOR. just like in other systems, adapt or become obsolete. All it takes is for someone to build a better iteration with alternative crypto, and LB is dead. 25/11/23

Got his responce from cleanup borg.

little biggy does not process payments. we are seeking payment processors with alternative currencies.

Little help to any vendor or customer, I don’t think anyone is actively seeking as this issue been going on since I joined and most likely before

It’s coming up to Xmas and I would sure love to have my payments for then.

FOR -24/11/23

I've reached out to all borgs, urging them to bring the issue to the attention of the administrators. If each of us sends a message, it could potentially strengthen our case and demonstrate to the administrators that significant changes are necessary for the survival of both vendors and the community. The increasing difficulty posed by fees from both the customer and vendor perspectives needs to be addressed, and collaborative efforts in highlighting these concerns may contribute to a more sustainable solution. GAW

All great points
