There's no clog, only a lot of people trying to outbid each other for the first block transaction. Every time this happens there's a spike in fees, but there are many ways to go around it, or simply ignore it. One of them is to use LN, the other is to opt out of the race and pay much less fee than required to be in the fist block. I never overpay and it's completely fine for me to wait 30min. Just going from 0 to 25 min lowers your fee by 40%. 25 min is nothing, I can make myself lunch in that time, or take a dump and a shower afterwards and be back to see my TX confirmed.
telling people bitcoin is completely fine to wait longer.. and then advertise people should instead use another network. is not a great way to promote bitcoin
imagine if my bank (it does instant transfers uk-uk and uk-eu) told me that instead of being in and out of the bank branch in 10 minutes i should go home take a dump, have a shower and come back later to check the wire transfer complete.. id change my bank
there are reasons people hate banks already. and your advocating that bitcoin should be a high fee system of delayed transfers.. and then advertise some other system .. shameful mindset you have
i guess your not a bitcoiner anymore
It would be great if there was a censorship mechanism in the bitcoin network that sorted all transactions in the mempool into those that Franky would like and those that Franky would not like, and would allow miners to confirm only the first ones. But no, wait, it's some kind of crap.
