I never really knew that was such a priority system in place to process all transactions.

I did know there was a queue and a wait involved but I had no idea it had such variables.

What do you think of the priority fee you can choose calculated by your wallet? Is it something one should consider, or all you guys just either see what the Sat/Byte is at the moment and calculate your processing fee?

I mean do a lot of people wait hours/days? (and if I am reading the graph right I think I have the answer right in front of me when looking at the Mempool you guys gave me! and yes they do!)

I use Electrum and set the fee manually for each transaction.

I check and set about 5 sat higher if i need the transaction to go fast or 10 lower if time isn't a factor.

Electrum also has a feature to increase the fee for a transaction if it is already in the mempool.
