I know it's random and blocks are only found on average once every 10 minutes. And there is the conformation bias, but I am beginning to think I *do* have a superpower and it's the ability to stop blocks from being found.
Sent a 6 sat/vb transaction 40 minutes ago, seconds after the last block. And now....no blocks for 40+ minutes.

And 6 sat/vb is not going to happen for 4+ blocks.

Feels like every time I send a TX with *just enough* of a fee to probably make it into the next block.

Just a Friday complaint, back to your regularly scheduled forum reading.

It happens to everyone though which will make a frustration for sure but everytime after a block took too longer to be mined then the upcoming 2 or more blocks will be mined in next few minutes so don't worry about this and to feel better always choose a fee that required for 0.8 or 0.6MB from the mempool to avoid this most of the times.
