They'll be confirmed when we find a block.
At least one was before I added the last one
Back to 4 awaiting confirm.
I spend ~$1 per payout ... comes from my mining, currently avg about 1/3 of my mining reward.
Yeah me spending ~$110 in the last month to send out the txns adds up ...
Since we pretty much confirm our own transactions with our blocks, then can you do the payments as zero fee? Assuming we get at least 1 block every day, many more usually but worst case. I don't mind waiting if it saves you money. If the pool hash rates drops for some reason and it would take more then 24 hours (expected) then pay a fee to send those payments.
Guess question is since we pick the transactions to include in a block, can you make payment zero fee and have them be first in the list to confirm ourselves?
Yep I already do this with our payouts (but with a fee every time)
As I say here in the thread, if no one confirms any payouts before we find a block, our block should confirm it.
I simply prioritise the transaction as +1000BTC fee
The "should", is simply that it's possible for it the be skipped sometimes (rarely) in the work, or thrown out of the mempool, especially when it's a zero fee transaction, and I have to put it back in.
But that should be quite rare.
