Just watched a vid on Youtube posted yesterday by Rover Ver. He said that it cost him $59 to send Bitcoin. Jesus Christ, that's bloody ridiculous!
Screenshots from Ver or it didn't happen.
Roger is a supporter of Segwit 2x and is obviously going to talk shit about Bitcoin leading up to their planned hard fork.
What was the size of the transaction?
Bitcoin fees (like most fees) are scaled in nominal value to the work required. A transaction of tens of thousands of dollars costing $59 is a pretty decent deal.
If Roger and crew aren't disclosing the size of the transaction you should ask and don't relent on your need to know.
I have no idea, he didn't say it on his vid. Does the size of the transaction mean how much money he's sending? I thought the whole idea of Bitcoin is that it doesn't matter if you send 1 cent of 1 billion dollars, the fees should be the same.
How interesting.
Think about it this way. If you made a $100,000 or $50,000 or even $10,000 (i.e., ~2 bitcoin) transaction and it cost you $59 would you think that's expensive? No.
