RE: Have been waiting almost 3 days for a BTC transaction to confirm. Is BTC just a "store of value" now? What happened to convenience and sticking it to the man???
I'm getting somewhat nervous. I tried to make a transaction to myself yesterday using a low fee. My wallet had estimated a 3 hour transaction time, which I figured wasn't a problem since I was only sending it to myself. I didn't realize at the time that everything was so congested. Now, over 28 hours later, I'm stuck trying to be patient but worried about my BTC!!
Update: Perhaps I spoke a little too soon. My transaction finally went through sometime this evening. I'm feeling relieved to have my transaction out of limbo, but it does make me question the ease of making simple BTC transfers and purchases in the future.
Exactly. Mine went through as well after 3 days. This is the new, cutting edge tech in finance???
No expert but seems like the near future of bitcoin is just a store of wealth like gold. Bitcoin cash and the like will be for daily use like the dollar or pound. Steem power is like owning stock in a business.
That's how my simple mind is thinking of it now.
