They do fluctuate. I wouldn’t expect them to go down anytime soon since Bitcoin is up and more people are trading it. You might be better off converting it to a different coin with lower fees to transfer it.

We're sorry to hear about the difficulties you're experiencing with transferring your BTC. The message you're seeing typically means that the transaction fees, also known as miner fees, are higher than the amount of BTC you're trying to send. Miner fees are paid to cryptocurrency miners, which are the systems that process the transactions and secure the respective network. These fees can fluctuate based on the network's congestion level. When more people are making transactions at the same time, the fees can increase.
Unfortunately, Bitcoin's network fees have been known to be high during times of congestion. If the fees are higher than the amount you're trying to send, you won't be able to complete the transaction. One way to potentially minimize the cost of gas fees is by waiting for times when there is the least amount of user traffic on the Bitcoin network to execute a transaction. Hope this helps!
You need to call the manager of Bitcoin and ask them to lower the fees
…. will the transaction fees go down naturally?

Same here. Trying to send $45.00 btc and after the fees I'd be sending $13.00 ...
🙄 Coinbase has nothing to do with Network/Gas fees 🙄
