Topic: Almost a $15 fee for a $29 transaction! - page 2. (Read 595 times)
Just saw that the recommended normal fees on Mycelium is 800 sat/byte! That brings an normal tx fees to $10~15! I have never seen so much fees. Considering how much time it was taking to get confirmed in past few days, I doubt even this much fees is going to gaureentee confirmation within an hour or so.
No kidding!
I had 3 transactions stuck in the network. I use Mycelium, and I hit the "bump fee" button just to see how much it would take: $42 they wanted to bump the fee, and there's no way to customize it!
Luckily two of those transactions went through, finally. The 3rd one I suspect is going to take another day at least. As I wrote in another thread, one of the three was a purchase that won't get shipped until they get one confirmation. This is why bitcoin generally sucks as a currency. Still love it as an investment, though.
I hate selling bitcoin or buying stuff with it. It leaves me with a cold, empty feeling inside that I detest.

Is there even a guarantee the bump fee would push it through that much faster? Holy crap! Times like these where you don't want to move it at all

I realize why the fees are currently so high, but curious as to what sort of transaction with this high of a fee would normally be covering? .1BTC, or more?
For those not wanting to look below, its a .005BTC transaction with a fee of .00224835BTC
