I wonder if all of the mobile wallets are updating there tx fees before, after, or during the day of the halving? I feel like they would need to atleast give users some kind of formal heads up or just be ready to update when the time comes, but it's inevitably close now... It just seems that a lot of btc users like to stick to their phone wallets more than anything (ease of access I guess).
The Bitcoin network can only handle ~3.7 transactions per second, period. If everyone trying to use Bitcoin doubled their fees, it wouldn't help. They'd all still be bidding against each other for inclusion in a 1MB block.
Yeah, I know that... but what I'm saying that gives an easy advantage in the bidding schematic of confirming your transaction. You have thousands of users using a mobile app that doesn't allow them to change the tx fee and they unknowingly put them selves at a major disadvantage. Might end up getting a lot of pissed off people who aren't familiar of how this works might as well happen if this is the case.
Yes, and what I'm saying is: If you help them increase their fees, they piss off the users they replaced in the block. It's a zero sum game and the maxblocksize should have been lifted before it was hit, like satoshi advised. This situation is a failure of Core's foresight and leadership.
think about that. 
.So it should be a luck about your confirmations quicker. May be it can be fixed the code changed accordingly.
