A bigger problem though is transaction clearing time, I just moved a bit to buy some equipment before end of year (tax deductible and I need this stuff) and it still hasn't confirmed.
If this keeps up I may have to use Litecoin.
Mempool is growing bigtime. Make sure to include a good fee for quick confirmation.
https://jochen-hoenicke.de/queue/#24hI have 2 fairly large transactions totally stuck - even though I put them through as 'fast' by believing my BTC Core wallet's advice.
Nothing confirmed for hours - what fees actually WORK right now - anyone recommend a site to suggest accurate fee requirements?
Feeling very stupid...
Viabtc has a Tx accelerator. It only accepts 100 tx every hour, and it fills up very fast. But it has been very useful to me, especially when the rates are excessively expensive.
