I am wondering if there is any faster altcoin which is worth investing in, suggestions?
I think cryptocurrency have nearly the same speed transaction with the bitcoin itself. even if you find altcoin faster than bitcoin. 
Topic: Bitcoin is too slow (Read 8877 times)
I didnt noticed a slow into the transactions, i had mooved some bitcoin some minutes ago and it took around 15 minutes to get 1 confirmation and my money credited, soo i believe its getting faster as the fees is high, paid 50000satoshis and were very quick.

Transactions are too slow. Will someone fix it or do we need a better coin?
It is still much faster than many international momey transfers through banks.
You can try Ethereum, the first confirmation is usually within 20 seconds. It is much faster than most other coins.

if you are transacting with some you trust then you shouldnt have a problem waiting for confirmations because they will come eventually. however most people dont trust the other party and therefore require the confirmations to show its a double spend, this is the weakest point of using bitcoin in my opinion. (waiting hours for your money) That is right, sadly.
Confirmations are taking ages. I wish the devs were smarter and coded bitcoin faster at first, so we wouldn't had to use coins like Litecoin. Who betatested this thing? Confirmation times are definitely not acceptable at all. Prices can change too much while i wait for my damn confirmation.

The current block times are not messed with since Satoshi released the code to the public. And I am quite sure that it will never happen. I agree that some times it's quite annoying when you want your tx to get confirmed quickly, but there is nothing that we can do other than waiting. Some times I get 3 confirmations within 10 minutes, and some times I need to wait more than 30 minutes.
10 minutes is decent. We don't want something too quick or that will create no traffic, which is what the miners like. 10 minutes is good, but what's not is when blocks take 2 hours to mine. That's what sets me on edge. There should be a fail safe for blocks after miners have spent 30 minutes searching. But afaik that's not possible.
10 minutes is too much. if you want bitcoin that people should use it then i think it is important that the trisection period must be very very little. may be in second. because the customer and the trader do not wait for such a long time.

I do not really have any knowledge with mining at all, since I gave up when I found it so complicated on how to set it up. But from what I've read before, wasn't it that blocks are mined every 10 minutes? Transactions are too slow. Will someone fix it or do we need a better coin?

Actually i never have an issue about the slow transaction until now. I mean, my transaction always fast, at least got 1 confirmation on 5-10minutes. For me, bitcoin is not slow.
i agree with you , you are right that bitcoin transaction is faster than other currency and i think bitcoin just take 5 or 10 minute for confirmation and i also agree with you that bitcoin is not slow . Even now the transactions were not that slow as few users quoted. Nothing to get disappointed, within a minute every transaction gets a status of unconfirmed transaction which itself primarily confirms the transaction.

You probably have a slow internet connection, I don't think there has ever been a transaction that took up to a day. However as the size of the block chain increases, we might have that, maybe 25 years from now.
Though there are altcoins that take less than 10 minutes but that's because they have a smaller blockchain size.
a transaction has no connection to the sender and the receiver. when someone send some bitcoin to a bitcoin address, then it is done from the side of sender. now it is up to the main system to done that transaction.
some time transaction will get slower because of block size. and some time transaction get slower because of the transaction fee sender paying.
that's it.
Well the transactions are pretty quick, but, if you're making a payment with it and it's of a time sensitive nature and having to wait for multiple confirmations may cause issues.
But there are work arounds, paper wallets, preloaded ready to hand over to seller, much like fiat.

Yah. sometimes confirmation is too slow but the transaction of bitcoin is fast . it depends on you to how you understand our transaction in bitcoin. we need to wait untill the transaction of confirmation is fast
What you mean with "we need to wait untill the transaction of confirmation is fast"? No matter how much you wait, if your transaction has a decent fee tied to it, then the chanses of getting your transaction confirmed are much greater. But then again, it's still up to the pools to include your transaction into the next block.

although it take more than 10 min but 10 min is also enough. how can Taxi driver stay for you for 10 min so that you can transfer bitcoin to him. or how can you stay at a shop after shopping or the shopkeeper will stay for you to transfer you bitcoin to pay the bill.
