I was starting to grow pretty concerned but clearly segwit and LN have made enough progress that fees have dropped to ~10sat/byte. [1] That is dirt cheap.

i don't think LN has had a chance to make any impact yet and segwit's adoption could be better though it does help.

main reason for the drop imo is the end of the hype cycle: https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?q=bitcoin
