    popped my BTC cherry fellas

    I went ahead and cashed in some betpoints for some btc and had it sent to my mycelium wallet. After that I decided i send over to my book and fuk me boyz, mycelium wants 5.50 (low priority) up to 6.50 (high priority).

    That seems outrageous to me. There has to be cheaper wallets than this right?

    ...the reason you see this is most likely your transaction coming in is not confirmed yet..Slide over to economy like 2 SAT and it will give you a parent unconfirmed message but still let you send...Thats just a standard fee it gives when funds are not conformed...never use that as it will take the lower fee...Always send now with 10SAT or less

    It's confirmed, has like 27 confirmations. being the noob that I am, I did not realize i could slide the fee amount under low/high priority and change it. Now under low priority I can set it to about 4sat/byte.

    Thanks for the info brother.

    be careful with low priority, only use it when in no rush at all....or the next thread we will see from you is how you have been waiting 8 hours for 1 confirmation.

    As long as the price stays low, yes. If the price climbs then everyone and their uncle gets in which adds traffic.

    Not sure if that is true since network has been updated a bit and is much stronger...best thing to do is check
    https://bitcoinfees.earn.com/ it’s my favorite site to see where fees are at
