You have to be really naive to think that some worthless shitcoin like Luna started this downfall Cheesy

Bitcoin crash is obviously just a part of bigger crash, and you won't be safer in dollars or any other fiat currencies.
I actually think that most of fiat currencies will go to zero, and central banks already have nightmare CBDC shit ready to replace them, but with total tracking, surveillance and without cash.
This could be the time for Bitcoin to shine again and offer real usable alternative.

What if Tether (USDT) becomes $0.95 again (it happened when Luna crashed) and then it keeps on going south?!

So what if it happens, and it will probably happen at some point.
All fiat currencies are worthless digit numbers and only fools believe they are better... but I guess they still work (for now).

Bitcoin is a great creation, but so was LibertyReserve, e-gold and probably others that no one has heard of ...

So was us dollar when it was tied with gold and not with imaginary vaporware.

Bitcoin without proper use (e.g. Binance) - would be a trouble.

I think that putting the "this is the use of Bitcoin" on Binance is very dangerous.
There are plenty of bitcoin exchanges, Binance is, by far, one of the very many. And if Binance falls, FTX is preparing for more than a year now to take over the job.

And Bitcoin role is not to be the main coin in centralized exchanges, no. I find one of Bitcoin's main use cases to be used as a coin, in the way it's used in El Salvador or on this very forum. I find one of Bitcoin's main use cases to be exchanged in a decentralized manner without the need to trust a third party. And, although it should diminish in time, one important use case of Bitcoin, whether we like it or not, is as investment or store of value. None of these need Binance, actually.

That's a bad example. Bitcoin knows no borders, and there's always someone willing to accept it.
Binance on the other hand: I couldn't care less. I don't use them, I don't like them, and clearly their own financial interests are different than the interests of the Bitcoin community.

What you say is fair enough.
Only time will tell how the future would look with Bitcoin.

Short-term, central banks seem to rule the economy nowadays, but long-term, their money only loses value.

What makes you believe they won't win long term? They have more tools than we can imagine.

This is what "winning" looks like for central banks:

Bitcoin existed before Binance, and will still exist long after Binance is gone and forgotten. Bitcoin doesn't need Binance.
Proper use is explained in the title of the Bitcoin whitepaper: Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System.

Clearly regulation is what most governments look for - but what if the entire economy will be digitalized like Bitcoin (yes, no more "Swift" for wire transfers) - and still the 21st Bitcoin so many talked about could bring the end of Bitcoin?

Who talked about the end of Bitcoin? And have you asked yourself why they feel the need to talk about it?

Quote

Then what do you have left? Ethereum?

Lol. Another centrally controlled shitcoin that abanoned their USP (Code is law) the moment it was convenient to protect their own interests.

Quote

The centeral banks cannot be underestimated, they are the ones with unlimited supply of cash to do whatever floats their boats.

And they truely fear Bitcoin's potential to take that power away from them.

Bitcoin is fine. You seem to confuse it with all kinds of things people build around Bitcoin to make themselves rich.

Hope reality proves me wrong, I've accelerated the transaction.... Bitcoin is truly shit when it's transferred between 3rd party wallets.

Binance is not even a wallet, it is an exchange, exchange can be hacked, they are centralized and can suspend withdrawal, freeze your account or do anything possible that can frustrates you at times, also custodial wallet are not excluded, you do not have complete control. The reason I point to this is because it is like you are sending from Binance (a centralized exchange) to an exchange where you will exchange your coin to fiat. It is better you make use of noncustododial wallet instead of Binance, noncustododial wallet like open source hardware wallet or wallet on airgapped device for that high amount of bitcoin.

None of that has any power over Bitcoin. Bitcoin is fine, and long-term, a great hedge against inflation. But only if you keep it in your own wallet, so don't "lend it out"!

Luna gambled. Celsius (which I didn't know until yesterday) gambled. Binance should be earning a lot of money from facilitating trades. If they're gambling, they deserve to go under.

Take note that it was Binance's system that had a "repair" not Bitcoin in general.
If they didn't broadcasted those pending consolidation 1sat/B-transactions but either make replacement with proper fee rate or halt consolidation for later,
it wouldn't have happened; thankfully that article mentioned that they've change their consolidation and withdrawal logic.

Without that unconfirmed parent, your transaction would have been confirmed by now without accelerating it (about 9~10 hours ago).

I was talking about this thread's topic: the unconfirmed transaction's relation to the article that you've linked.
I cannot comment on speculations specially in this board.

The system must have trust in order to function well, right now we're seeing bubbles bursting one after another, and Celsius/Luna are definitely not the last ones here.

That makes sense.
Your transaction's parent transaction has a fee rate of 1sat/B which was the optimal fee before the "surge".
That should be one of their "pending consolidation transactions" (100in->1out) that got broadcasted after the repair.

That "repair" was costly but moving $5,000 when BTC was $25,000 (0.2 BTC) and now it's under $22,000 (less than $4,400) - we sold it at $24,000 ($200 loss) + extra 10 LTC fee to ViaBTC.

Was it worth it? It's worth the peace of mind.

Currently our faith in Bitcoin has gone downhill, the raise of interest rates + global rising costs / inflation would hamper lenders like Celsius and Tether (USDT) could be next, hopefully it won't ... but there's going to be a "financial war" between Tether, Binance and the US govt - it's already happening now. Who knows what the future holds. We hope the good side will win.

Binance (the scam site that tries to trick people by offering 3 different made-up tokens as Bitcoin) charges 50k sats for Bitcoin Segwit withdrawals!

The information shown there is wrong.
Before, they had two different options for withdrawing real bitcoin. One was "Bitcoin" and the other one was "BTC(SegWit)".
Now, they have only one option for withdrawing real bitcoin which includes both legacy and segwit addresses. The withdrawal fee for that is 0.0002 BTC.

I am not saying the withdrawal fee on binance is low. They are charging very high fee.

It is confirmed because we paid for the acceleration and we're glad we did - next time we would only withdraw from Binance via BTC to a cold wallet where WE control the fee and not a 3rd party, lesson learned.

You are ''lucky'' because Binance totally stopped withdrawing Bitcoin from their exchange, and they only allowed to withdraw it as fake bitcoin tokens on other blockchains.
I think you overpaid acceleration with 10 ltc (but you probably didn't have any other options), and if you want to have full control use some non-custodial wallet with RBF option in future.
Solid centralized alternative for Binance could be FTX exchange, but I honestly don't trust very much any centralized exchange.

With all the panic in the market today - is there a way to accelerate this transaction somehow or just "wait"?

ViaBTC shows 12.5 LTC price to accelerate ($525) which seems too much - any other suggestions what to do in order to get this confirmed?

confirmed now
