what i am doing is get relax for a while with my glass of coffee and watching some movie, beside that i make a chat with my group on WA and BBM. i don't take too much thinking how long confirmations will be finished, because when i see there is any transaction i receive in my wallet, and its just show 0 confirmations, i know it will finished by itself, so better i used my time for doing other activities.

I honestly gave up waiting for confirmations when I do transactions.  As long as I see that the transactions are pending, I walk away for I know it is on its way!  Has anyone ever had a transaction that was denied or reversed? 

Reversal is impossible, but denied can happen. I seriously doubt that any zero fee (i.e. free) transactions get confirmed at all these days, and I know from experience that using the relay minimum (1000 satoshis) can take days. I guess 1000 satoshis is kind of like the new zero fees tx's.

hi

what are you doing while your are waiting for a confirmation of a transaction.

i am reading here and posting some stuff.

I refresh the blockchain page to see if there is a new block mined and if my transaction was included on that block.

Sometimes i read the news about crypto, IT or even local newspapers, but since the transaction fees are good I wouldn't worry too much.

While waiting for cofnirmation what I am doing is that I am surfing in the social medias like facebook and as well as watching some youtube videos. And if that is still enough I am researching some good trend to come with bitcoin and as well as what are the new trends in the technology. Because I need to keep on updated.

I  also do the same.
I read some bitcoin`s blogs too, like http://cointelegraph.com

I usually wait for confirmation of the transaction to check my website and sometimes I waited while eating. I sometimes also checks whether the transaction has been successful or not.

I never do a big amount transaction, just only a small transaction, confirmation was not so long only ~10 minutes and usually I check my facebook or play games while waiting for the transaction confirmed and sometimes i check the bitcoin market.

Hmm.. While i am waiting for the confirmation i am just reading here in the forum and taking a look on the informations about new coins and services .i also taking a look on my trading account if what  my invested coin status .

the main problem of confirmation needs at the exchange site during deposit .
i am always paying high transaction charge manually to get sudden confirmation . so i never feels any need of doing another activity to wait confirmation. .

While i waiting for a confirmation , i usually playing some games and check this forum or social media .
Just forget about confirmation , and check several times between 10 - 15 minutes and your transaction already confirmed.

Wow. Is it that "painful" to wait for a confirmation? Cheesy I just get on with my life and forget about it...

Not when you're in a time-sensitive situation where you got someone waiting on an important payment from you. If I'm not in a hurry then it's not a big concern but I still try to wait for it to fully confirm. If I'm at home, usually I'd just go play a few games of blitz chess while I wait and check back after half an hour or so.

While my guitar gently weeps!!!
If it didn't take longer than 10 minutes and the transaction doesn't matter much to me like transferring my bitcoin from wallet to another, I just browse around the net, but if it is important like cashing out, I wait for it and watch the number of confirmations while playing my favorite musical instrument... But sometimes I just don't mind it if I am busy...  Smiley

you dont need to doing anything, just waiting for a confirmation is finish
if you want to fast transaction, you can increase fee


Some wallet app has no option for increasing transaction  fee. Just like what we used here in asian country.


For me i'm just reading and browsing on 9gag website and it is very effective on killing time of waiting. Sometimes i already forgot that i have deposit some bitcoin because of enjoyment on reading funny facts! Cheesy

Just doing the things is will not wasting my time and having a usefulness for me, maybe just doing a trading at the same time is waiting about the confirmation but sometimes it's will taking more than 30 minutes and that is so bad for me.

Nothing, just continue what I have doing before doing transactions and before that waiting for confirmations appeared.  I do not know why have you posted this but it seems that you have  a problem with it.  Maybe it takes too long for your transaction to confirm.  Is there a problem with your internet connection cause it seems like its bothering you.  Try to switch or find a better internet provider. Grin  Or you could make more bitcoin by not making too much attention with the "waiting for confirmation" thing.
