Why do people keep using that site? They seem to favour miners instead of users.
https://btc.com/stats/unconfirmed-tx shows 40 sat/byte is enough for an instant transaction, 20 sat/byte is still very fast.
https://blockchain.info/unconfirmed-transactions shows 8700 Unconfirmed Transactions and only 0.169
BTC in fee for 4128 kB. That's 40 sat/byte
on average. Most will be much lower, and some will be 300 sat/byte and more (this is the default setting in many wallets now).
yeah this ammount was collected from faucets. checked again. all funds are just from 4 transactions.
my wallet is the basic core wallet for debian. v14.x
On the Send tab, under "Transaction Fee": select custom, set 0.2 mBTC (0.0002 BTC) per kilobyte, see what it says. You can probably get away with 0.1 too on a quiet Sunday. You'll only risk getting stuck if the fees go up, in that case it will confirm next Sunday.
right now mycelium is wanting about $22 off me for a high priority tx with 15 inputs. that fee is possible if he has a bunch of them.
i know perfectly well that i could get it all through for less than $1 right now by the sounds of it but mycelium won't allow that.
I stopped using Mycelium for this exact reason. Many wallets are competing with eachother on fees, if they all set a higher fee, it only means we all pay more, and we're all still waiting. The basic principle of paying for priority is gone when everybody pays more by default.
