> Bitcoin Cash does currently scale up to Paypal's daily number of transactions while keeping transaction fees below $0.01.

On this here website there was a talk a couple months ago that led me to believe that paying $150 worth of bitcoin costs ... $150 if you want it done at credit card speed. Have things changed?

Without any other information I must suppose you are talking about Bitcoin (BTC), which has limited scalability and therefore high transaction fees when there is high demand. Bitcoin Cash BCH has low fees, below $0.01 as I mentioned.

You can see a graph of historic average transaction fees at https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/transactionfees-btc-bch...

Credit cards take days to complete the transaction. Much like BTC, there are near-instant checks to make sure the desired transaction _will eventually and most likely_ be valid.

But that's not the user experience.
