    Bitcoin transaction fees reach such high levels due to the limited block size of the Bitcoin blockchain. With a limited number of transactions that can be included in each block, users compete to have their transactions included by offering higher fees. This creates a supply and demand dynamic, driving up the fees.

    The high levels of bitcoin transaction fees can also be attributed to the increasing popularity and adoption of bitcoin. As more people use bitcoin for transactions, the demand for block space increases, leading to higher fees. Additionally, during periods of high network congestion, fees tend to spike as users compete for limited block space.
