RE: Steam Will No Longer Accept Bitcoin "Due to High Fees"
once lighting network is running will be able to handle millions of transactions a second with fees as low as 1 sat.
Careful drinking the Blockstream koolaid. I've been hearing promises about Lightning for years. I don't trust them (but I don't trust Bitcoin "Gold" or "Cash" for that matter, either...)
currently best crypto for everday transactions is DASH and once next upgrade is complete will only take a few seconds and another upgrade coming in early 2018 will allow for more transactions than mastercard
I haven't heard about this but I'll look it up. Whatever currency ends up being best for payments will ultimately win in the long run I think. Right now Bitcoin Core is being pumped and propped by Tether printing, IMO.
Sounds like your taking too much FUD in your tea (´・ω・`)
lighting network isnt controlled or dictated by anyone but the buyers and sellers whoever runs nodes for payments will charge whatever fee they like and users will choose fee to use.
on recent upgrade

TL;DR
Dash partners with exchange to offer on-boarding through FIAT, US bank transfer E.U SEPA and soon credit cards.
Mobile intergration for any mobile device to process Dash payments.
I disagree i think bitcoin will have most value as reserve for the rest as its strength of security and potential for utility is currently top,
On bitcoin being pumped i think is natural as is about to enter markets with 100 times the liquidity and is one of the hottest topics online in Tech Business Finance.
Also will give access to many mainstream investors who would have been interested but skeptical of using crypto exchanges or peer to peer purchases.
