I'm far from a math or Bitcoin guru, but I have a quick question. At 185,000 unconfirmed transactions and 100 transactions a second, if we all took a chill pill for 30 minutes, wouldn't the BlockChain be clear? Thanks in advance!

Its a hard thing to do, asking the world to take a chill pill and stop transacting Bitcoin for even 30 minutes. At the current rate, considering a block is mined every 10 minutes on an average, 2500 average transactions included in a block and the whole world taking a chill pill, it would still take 12~ hours approximately to completely clear out the mempool and not to mention the innumerable 1-50 satoshis/byte fee transactions which miners despise of.

If u want to speed up confirmations u can use this tool  www.confirmtx.com  website will speed up bitcoin transactions if u provide hash code in the box provided

Read the OP properly before spamming with your transaction accelerator posts.
