What is this shit?
The latter word is the perfect representation of the type of service you'll be getting if you keep using that wallet.
I agree, though that's an entirely separate issue from what OP has brought up. 

Seems like a lot of people think it's their particular wallet that's the problem with high fees in the past week or so, but it isn't.  Network fees are through the roof and it doesn't matter what wallet you're sending bitcoin from--everyone has got the same problem, including me.  I sent some bitcoin from my Electrum wallet 3-4 days ago, and I'm still waiting for a confirmation.  I can't even increase the fee because I had RBF checked off in my settings and don't even have enough left in my wallet anyway. 

It's a sucky situation, OP, but you're not alone.  And as SFR10 mentioned, the blockchain.com wallet is pretty bad; you might want to switch to a better one (like Electrum).
