33 dollars was the suggested transaction cost. I'm doing non-segwit transactions on my Ledger for 5 satoshi's with confirmations in the first block.
Why are wallets setting such high fees ? Am I just getting lucky that my transaction aren't getting stuck (all the time) ?
Is this also the reason were having this transaction debate, bad fee management ?
Also: When I do a transaction, blockchain.info list my transactions as unconfirmed while they are already confirmed, what's up with this ?
Thx

The major mining consortium members are pressuring development into keeping the blocksize small because it creates a fee market advantageous to the miners. A blocksize increase would allow more transactions to happen at once. This would mean transactions would confirm even with smaller fees. Devs (because they’re gutless pussies afraid their baby will break its leg on the park swing waited too long to act) now have to fear implementing anything using a “hard fork”. Using a hard fork means changing something so ingrained into the bitcoin protocol that a sort of “system reboot” is necessary to make it happen. That’s because everyone in the world will need to update their software all at once. This is like telling everyone in the world using MasterCard to throw away their card and get a new one today.
Mycelium and Ethereum don’t mix and play well with blockchain.info. Use this to check on transactions instead: https://blockexplorer.com
