What is the normal amount of bitcoins transactions in queue? Currently it is close to 30000 transactions.
I have a transaction waiting for over 16 hours now. It has a fee, so am I guarenteed that it will be confirmed?

view the queue length here

FYI:
Average Block is holding between 1400 & 2600 transactions,
blockspeed of 10 minutes

Ok I'll let you say bitcoin is slow today but this is a rare occurrence, my transaction quoted above still has not confirmed.
If i had control over that tx i would have checked the charts first and added the appropriate fee, that is another problem with online wallets that they don't update their fee structures often enough.

But on the bright side the transaction did appear instantly lile always and will still be available quicker than a bank transfer.

Everything is available quicker than a bank transfer.
Alts are way faster, my favorite ZEIT has 20X the transactions capacity of BTC in 10 Minutes, but far be it from me to try an change a man's religion in Bitcrap. Wink
