... if you remind yourself how many people still believe in $$$ (fiat) for such a long time on this planet, the a$$hole-to-bitcoiner ratio turns out clearly in their favour "favour".
Opinions are not facts ...
Well I still have issues with BTC working for hundreds of years. I think scrypt algo with LTC/Doge is much better for a 200 year run than BTC
but yeah Fiat is on Life support.
And with me being 66 and no kids BTC only needs to do well for 20 years.
My advice which according to JJG is terrible is:
DCA
BTC and LTC and Doge
If you follow my advice and lose money do not blame me. Why follow my advice.
TLDR
Philip sucks.
Sounds kind of technical for these here parts, but hey? maybe some guy might be willin to go down the 'splainin path with you, but not this here cat. i am too busy with non-technical matters.. or at least I see that there are a variety of wallet option types and some support legacy only, or legacy segwit or segwit with bech 32 or taproot (I think in that order), and I fucking have hardly any clue regarding when to use which, even though it seems that I have been using bech 23 addresses a lot recently and it got me into a bit of quagmire once (just last week when I sent a legacy segwit to a bech 32 address and then it kind of got lost for a while - did not go through.. yet I was able to send it again (after about 4 days of my wondering where the transaction had gone.. it was a decently sized transaction.. just saying.. but whatever all is good in JJG landia in regards to not having had lost those BTC that I had tried to send from a legacy segwit to a segwit with bech 32 address.. whatever the fuck that means? #justsaying)...
Not sure what wallet you have used. But, Most Non-Custodial wallets have RBF features. You should be able to Spend unconfirmed transactions utilizing this feature instead of waiting for four days. Make sure to use more transaction fees. Blockchair.com should help you to figure out the average transaction fees.
This involved an attempt to send from an exchange to a self-custodial wallet, and I am not sure what kind of circumstances might have happened if I had been sending between two self-custodial wallets as you are considering might have been what I was mentioning as my situation.
Of course, when I inquired from the exchange about what had happened with my transaction and what was the status of it, they had provided me an automated explanation that allowed me to identify and to fix the situation from their end (and part of the reason that it took 4 days to resolve was because it took 4 days for them to respond to my inquiry), and at the same time their automated response seemed to not be exactly sure of the specifics that I had described in my inquiry and therefore mentioned that the situation might have been more difficult to resolve if there might have been some mistake on my end that would have caused the transaction to have had gone out of their wallet.. which ended up not being the case, and their wallet (whatever the fuck they were using), just failed/refused to process the transaction at all, which was good for me. and I was able to cancel the transaction within their system and to reinitiate the transaction in a more proper (acceptable way).. and viola.. no BTC's were lost (and no babies died, either... as far as I know).
