"All transactions are confirmed in a matter of minutes."
And outright lies!

If you have auto-fee in your wallet software, it's actually true. Software chooses the average fee in the mempool, transaction confirms in minutes (less than 90)

I really don't know what is going on but very long waiting time for BTC transactions confirmation really creating serious problems.
I remember that just a few months ago all my transaction was confirmed in a few hours.
Recently, I usually have to wait for more than 24 hours.
Bitcoin is still the most popular crypto currency but if we can't solve problem with unconfirmed transactions, I'm sure that more people will give up from bitcoin and choose other crypto currency.




All transactions are confirmed in a matter of minutes. You should really use a modern wallet, not the one which sends txs with 0 fee.

But you are surely free to choose  other crypto currency, best of luck Smiley Take the other trolls with you who want to send three cents on-chain for free on your way out, please.

Thinking everyone lives in a Rich County and can afford up to $1 to transfer 25 cents, shows you don't really think at all do you.
50 cents to $1 US can be alot higher depending on your exchange rate

 Cool

FYI:  https://bitcoinfees.21.co/
The fastest and cheapest transaction fee is currently 180 satoshis/byte, shown in green at the top.
For the median transaction size of 226 bytes, this results in a fee of 40,680 satoshis.
.00040680  =  .46 US $  or 16.04 Thai Baht  or 6131.8 Indonesian Rupiah

Your .46 cents is UNaffordable in other countries.  Tongue

So far none run stuck, might been lucky. But I am always keeping an eye on https://bitcoinfees.21.co/ to adjust the fee. Mostly forking over like 50cents so far, with a fatal tendency to rise and rise. Both the satoshis amount AND the dollar value are escalating!
On the long term a digital currency must be able to beat the competition, not to exceed them on feeing nickel 'n dime out of customer's pockets.

"i am satosh", you declare in your sig.

You probably could not be further from the truth.
Maybe try "i am gmax" for more accuracy.

"you are surely free to choose other crypto currency"
Just more 'false dilemma' fallacy.

At this moment there are 39,500+ unconfirmed transactions and that is not so cool picture to show off as a bitcoin user. We really need a strong increase in the bandwidth or it will be really difficult to regain the trust and the user base if we lose it. Everyone is asking for fast confirmation with low fees so that should be the top priority imo.

it almost happened once.  many big pools and companies signed a joint statement supporting 8mb blocks but ultimately
backed off and erred on the side of caution. 

If things continue in the manner they are now, it likely won't be long before it happens again and we have a much needed fork.

When the mempool gets stuck at a hundred or two thousand, and fees rocket into Dollars, we will all see the stupidity of this Core plan.
A fork will come suddenly, imo.

Everybody knows that there are absolutely no obstacles to raising block size indefinitely right? I mean, Ver and three trolls have said that so it must be true.
You are promoting a classic 'false dilemma' fallacy, implying that the only alternative to keeping the blocksize constant is to 'raise it indefinitely'.
No..how about we just go to 2mb so people's transactions can get through?  Instead of having 40k unconfirmed transactions.
Boom and there it is!

Well put.

This is precisely why bitcoin isn't ready for the mainstream. Until we can get past the foolish politics of the blocksize debate, we can't scale. There is something to be said about regulation, however you may feel about it Wink If some extraordinary economical event should occur, such as a serious Asian capital flight (in progress), or events similar to the Greek capital exit that occurred during their default, we simply won't be prepared. This issue has grown quite long in the tooth, and at some point we should maybe look at simply getting a new governance board.

Thus has to be fixed, despite if the solution is a consensus. Compare this to the debt ceiling stall/debate that occurred recently in the States. Inaction will simply lead to increased harm.

And although I think a fork is a method of last resort, maybe it's something we need to be considering. Will we allow the world to burn because of ideological differences?

Core dev leaves me neg feedback #abuse #political

You guys act like it would be hard , all that has to happen is the Miners sponsor a Dev Team not affiliated with Blockchain's Sponsored BTC Core Dev team.
The New Dev team writes a quick 2mb blocksize update, the miners update , and then their is time for discussions on future updates, when BTC unconfirmed transactions are not taking 3 days to complete.

Old Saying , when the Mule is stuck in a Ditch on Sunday , you don't wait til Monday to get him out.
BTC Core Asshats are doing nothing but waiting!

 Cool

In the Real World, we would have hired new devs last year and been done with their segwit shenanigans.


 Cool
Has there ever been an instance where people weren't looking out solely for their own agendas and were instead operating for the good of the rest of the users?  Cheesy

I agree that if we had a system that operated more with the ability to throw bad devs out we likely would have gotten somewhere sooner, but that's what happens when you have decentralization.

This is exactly why it doesn't make sense to have a maximum blocksize at all , as part of the consensus rules.

Core needs to be fired and an entire new dev team brought in , ones that don't work for Bankers trying to take over BTC with LN.

 Cool

Hello my little friend with an unjustified sense of entitlement, I am just glad you are not in charge of firing anything other than your own poop rockets. But I could enjoy taking a look at your "entire new dev team", it must be a real show of talent, that one. Meanwhile you are free to continue moaning on this board while bitcoin is evolving. Good luck with your pointless agenda.

PS Bonus point if you manage to read the definition of opensource, look for a special section "how would a forum troll go about firing a dev team in a 15b opensource project", could be an eye-opener.


Are you really just that stupid , or did someone teach you from birth to be a BTC Core ASS KisserKiss

If you are willing to pay a higher than average transaction fee, then you can expect your transaction to get confirmed in a couple of hours. But the question is whether we need to prioritize such transactions over other pending ones, some of which are in queue for two or three days now. This is going to get worse in the future, as the number of transactions increase. We need to act now.

So obviously people will dump Bitcoin and move to some other crypto-currency. Perhaps that is what these people want.

Jeezus you monkeys even hear what you are chirping? People (world's top cryptographers) who spent many years developing bitcoin software did it only to kill said software and promote "some other crypto-currency". No wonder Ver can use your mouth holes to his advantage, with reasoning skills of a 3 year old. To you life must seem so simple, why even read something about bitcoin if you can talk talk talk.

Hey Dufus,

BU will only raise the block size to the point the network can handle it.

Core could have came out with a fixed minuscule 2mb block size hard fork and the miners would have updated to relieve the current transaction problems.
Instead Core goes silent and does absolutely nothing , trying to force segwit down everyone throats.
Core is trying to steal the future fees from the miners, they are not dumb enough to fall for Core Takeover bid.

Core needs to be fired and an entire new dev team brought in , ones that don't work for Bankers trying to take over BTC with LN.
