Bitcoin Forum

Hi, I have the bitcoin Wallet for android. It seems like it takes quite some time for the BTC to be confirmed sent to another wallet. How can I speed up the process. One Transaction I did was nearly 2 Hours ago it is now 5:15 my time.

Thank you

You can increase the likelihood of a transaction being confirmed soon by including a higher transaction fee.

the confirmation time depends on the fee you include with your transaction. higher fees confirm faster. your wallet should have an automatic fee button that should set the fee so it confirms in around an hour.

Thank you I will look for that Option next time I complete a transfer.

This is not the problem with your wallet but delay is because of bitcoin network

As other have suggester you could increase transactions fees.

Also take in mind that bitcoin block approximate generation time is 10 minutes. If you need faster confirmation you should look at other cryptocurrencies.

Have a nice day.

i have used blockchain wallet for android
yes, the transaction will confirmed if we already get 4 confirmation
i dont know why? But i think some wallet also do it at least need 4-6 confirmation to confirm the transaction
and most important is to get confirmation is depend of your tx fees also size and its up to the miners

Maybe your wrong section
is good section about bitcoin wallet
in section web wallet, in there complete disscus about bitcoin wallet

The 6 confirmations check is arbitrary, but most establishments look for 6 confirmations. It is based on the assumption that any attacker of the network will not have more than 10% of the hashing power.

Well, if you're doing a transaction that made the number of your wallet becoming zero, or dealings with a small amount, I think there is no way to make it faster. maybe this time bitcoin transactions are not as fast as before, because the current bitcoin users are more and more. if you want your transaction quickly, then do not do the transaction that made you become an empty wallet

If you want fast transactions you need to use some other payment method or other currency.

Bitcoin network has been congested for a year or so now, it is not reliable.

This is why I suggested this some days ago: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1639259.0

As my experiences used xapo android wallet, when i sent is veryslow ( more than a hour) to got 1 confirmations. Why this is happen?

Do you experience this speed when you send to others xapo users or when you send to normal bitcoin addresses?

Transfer to other xapo users should be done immediately.

If your are sending to a bitcoin wallet, did you check the transaction with block explorer to see datails?

Altcoins like doge and litecoin have faster confirmations than bitcoin, and their transaction fees are minimal.

what you think about online wallet ?are they trusted
