"making it a great fit for micropayments" except that you currently have to pay about $4 for any transaction to come through ... eventually

  Absolutely not true. I paid $0.40 cents on a $5.00 transaction yesterday that was confirmed within an hour. I could've easily paid the same $0.40 cents to move $50,000,000.00.

    > $0.40 cents on a $5.00 transaction Visa or Mastercard is cheaper than that

      Actually it is in the same ballpark. 2.9% + 30¢ is a usual price in US for a small business.

  Yea let me transfer money to another account through ACH.... 3 day.... Let me transfer it with Eth or BTC... 1 hour or 40 seconds later...

    ACH vs BTC is a strawman battle that glosses over Paypal, Venmo, Square Cash, Facebook Messenger Payments, Zello, AliPay, and a few dozen others.

      bitcoin won't censor or freeze your transactions tho.
