Title: Where can I find what a tx id costs per byte? Post by: philipma1957 on February 23, 2017, 05:14:13 PM Okay I did 5 transactions. I know that its been slow my hot wallet is paying 100 sat/B here is one of the five transactions. No double spends simply too low of a fee. So what is correct fee now 150 sat/B? https://blockchain.info/tx/b37e0dd21e265320320b5ff3ad77fe4ec39cdff50c9c58b892c18d8f7205f4ab (Fee: 0.00613201 BTC - 99.71 sat/B - Size: 6150 bytes) 2017-02-23 14:38:36 I can go higher if I want to. but is there a link that says sat/B needed to go fast. I am not aware of one other then ones built into wallets which sometimes are not very accurate. Title: Re: Where can I find what a tx id costs per byte? Post by: brituspol on February 23, 2017, 05:15:50 PM This is what I use for the recommended tx fee estimation: https://bitcoinfees.21.co/ . Right now it appears to be 200 sats/B

100 sats take 1 to 20 hours or 6 to 120 blocks 125 sats is pretty fast 10 to 60 minutes or 1 to 6 blocks Title: Re: Where can I find what a tx id costs per byte? Post by: dserrano5 on February 23, 2017, 07:30:58 PM You don't need to rely on 3rd parties :)

If you set it at 200satoshi per kilobyte then it is highly likely to get within the first three blocks released from that point. |
