$12 fee? That's terrible.

I agree, but it's not the $500 some people are claiming it to be. Also it confirmed in a reasonable timeframe.
I have the following hopes for bitcoin: 1) People upgrade to segwit
2) The people spamming the network stop
3) Lightning Network will reduce some previously onchain transactions
4) Schnorr signatures will compress transactions even more

That sounds kind of like hoping that people sending spam via e-mail just stop one day.

Meh, on that transaction a $12 fee isn't too bad. ~$3,440 transmitted for ~$12 in fees, works out to 0.37% fee. That said, if you have some patience doing a similar transaction through ACH can often be free or significantly cheaper.
Anyone who appreciates the properties of bitcoin is using a cold wallet. The cold wallets available on the market today are quite robust and easy to use. I'd recommend trezor.
> My $20 request to get on the blockchain STILL isn't done after 5 weeks
Here's a recent transaction I made using Segwit just today. Confirmed within 30min: https://blockchain.info/tx/308da302ef589872809f61282154263a4...
> Oh no my Xcoin crashed 50% today
Bitcoiners are well aware we're still in the price discovery phase. Volatility is understandable.
> I lost so much money because of this stupid coin....if only someone can save me from the scammers....
I don't expect anyone to bail me out. Unlike everyone with a 401k and an index fund.
> In javascript!! secure it is.
You're talking about Ethereum now. Bitcoin isn't programmed in Javascript.
> It costs me $500 to send $500......sob
Again, my segwit transaction from earlier today shows how much FUD and misinformation you're spewing: https://blockchain.info/tx/308da302ef589872809f61282154263a4...
