Fee/size is what matters. Only 109 Satoshi/byte. Too small.

**ParlayKing1986** · 04-12-17, 06:22 PM

Damnit..tried to do higher then it said fee is extremely high...fml

**Kaabee** · 04-12-17, 06:30 PM

The fee is ok it's just that the transaction size is double what it should be. Two transactions grouped together. One for basically nothing. Don't know why that happened.

22 hours is my personal worst. Hope you don't exceed it. GL

Your transaction fee wasn't that bad... I've seen a lot worse. Network was clogged.

The only time you really need to jack up the fee... is when the book needs it within 15 minutes. 5Dimes screwed me over a couple of bucks today. Yes, I'm pissed... because they received it within 33 minutes... and Bitcoin fell a little. Such BS at times.

I never had a transaction go longer than 7.5 hours.

I'm confused by people posting this.

Yes, you made the fee high. That was the idea. Why do you care about a message telling you you are doing exactly what you are trying to do?

Add 50% to what is suggested if delivery speed is a priority and then click YES I WANT TO DO THAT when the warning comes up.

Nothing fast and convenient about bitcoin anymore. It's quicker doing money transfers lol.
