I agree. Negligent.

Last 6 blocks

974
0
965
974
974
0

Either full or empty.
100% (average) full is not achievable.

i've experienced an unusual delay for a small amount that i received, and i don't believe in the "we are under ddos bullshit" again, so yes some blocks are definitely full

There is no ddos attack.

Many are full. That ok.
But very soon, if growth continues as we hope, then blocks will be proper full, then over full. Then you may start getting more serious delays.
(higher fees may not even get your tx confirmed then, if everyone starts paying higher fees, there simply will not be room)

Lauda says blocks are only 70% full. But empty blocks will sometimes be mined no matter how large the block size.
(that reduces "average" block capacity in effect, which is what Lauda refers to)
So we will never get very near to "100% full blocks", even when the mempool is at max capacity and beyond.

Expect delayed tx times from now on.

it was with higher fee in fact and every sub transactions was with high fee also, so it must have been caused by a full block

also waiting fro the block to be 100% full before moving our asses is what i call negligence

And how are we able to solve this problem?
Or do we have no power as members of the bitcoin industry?

I know there are some smart guys that are discussing these topics, but who actually decides what is going to happen with bitcoin?
And the people that make decision, do they decide the best possible option, or only the best outcome for theirselfs?

Oh, wow. Where you been hiding?
That is about 10 different threads...

(but mainly 1 topic...) Core v Classic. Prepare to be bombarded.
(Then your supposed to take sides, then turn off brain, then dig trenches, then insult everyone with any slight difference of opinion or free thought)

Listen like i just said on another post, there is to much invested in bitcoin to fail, and to many cleaver minds working on it for it not to be resolved, now is the time for us all to double down and get bitcoin back on track..... im away to buy some more...  Cool

it is full for a while already and everyone knows that but this problem soon should be solved with the rise of the block size

lets hope the fees wont get much higher before that as it would surely make some people to stop using bitcoin for a while and it wouldnt be good for the price of bitcoin

Rise in block size soon? good luck with that.
That is a different thread.

To make people stop using bitcoin, fees will start rising any time now.
As I said, there will not be room for everyone in the block no matter what fee you pay.

Who cares, we will have segwit soon and it should give us enough time to keep scaling. I did transactions today and this week some other too and I have never had problems with it. Just pay the recomended fee.

Segwit soon? good luck with that.
That is a different thread.

You will not have had problems with tx times yet. (if you paid the proper fee as you said)
But, as I said, from now on you will.

They aren't. If they were, the average block size would be closer to 1 MB and not around 700kb.

Why would I, as an node operator (as an example) want to store your 'shit' for free? No thanks; this is a very bad argument.

Nothing can be done and nothing will be done, people in charge do what they want regardless what needs to be done.
The people that you're promoting are worse by all aspects (starting with knowledge and skills).

You are in the right of supporting bigger blocks..
Segwit is fine as the first step. A bigger block size can come at a later time.

Best you can do is change currency, litecoin has a pretty stable value.

These threads would have more impact if there weren't any empty blocks.

Anyone know how long are transactions taking just now? I withdrew bitcoin from an exchange a few hours ago and still no sign of it at all.

I did transactions from some exchange to my Core wallet recently, and minutes after confirming my withdraw, it appeared on my wallet as unconfirmed, so I had to do is wait. After a while, I had a couple of confirmations and the BTC was added to my final amount.

I don't know what the hell you guys are doing to have so many problems. Just pay a decent fee and wait for it, it's not like you are going to lose the money.

The exchange set the fee not me, i had no control over that !  Angry

Anyway, seemed to take longer than usual but its in my wallet now happy to report.

good idea at least gold can't be mucked around with by a bunch of preteens this will not work you canth trust anyone to make this work without governance otherwise pepil will jump ship to another alt and when that alt gets preteened they will jump to another alt and alther alt and alther alt it hurts just thinking about the mess and will cause instability its time... its time for me to get out now i dont feel comfortable with my holdings leaden by a bunch of preteens that take 2 years to solve a problem because of the testosterone proving grounds
