at least you can get it to work, while with bank account, you're stuck to wait for monday, when they keep saying that everything is automatized, fucking bullshit, they are actually playing with your money on the weekend, by investing them...

at best with bitcoin i had some minor delay, more than acceptable for me

Is there a reason behind this phenomenon? I've paid generous txn fees at times but it is taking longer than usual to get 1 confirmation and this mostly happen on weekends or friday evenings. Is this a common occurrence?

Yes because during Friday evening and weekends the transaction of Bitcoin is too much hence it take more time for one transaction during weekend and Friday .

This is strange. I have not observed this before.
Most of my transactions get confirmed about the same speed on weekends cf weekdays, except when during times when there was so-called "stress test".

nothing exceptional happening.. but

seems slushpool went low-data with only 434 transactions which confirmed in 3 minutes.. blockheight 389126

then block height 389127 took 45 minutes to confirm, with a massive 3328 tx's.

im guessing you just had yours confirmed in that 389127 block

Yes, bitcoin usage is higher on weekends than it is on week days. Not by much though. Want to share a TX ID?
