Title: Slow Confirmations? Post by: crazy_rabbit on September 06, 2013, 05:07:49 PM Whats up these days? I feel like we are regularly hitting patches where confirms are taking 30 minutes or more. ASIC related? whats the delay, and why is it so frequent?

Post by: franky1 on September 06, 2013, 07:21:36 PM simple answer, the difficulty has risen to such an extent to cause these longer times, simply to counteract the short confirm times we have seen recently. overall, when averaged out over the year it should be near on 10 minutes a confirm
if anyone is going to moan about lengthy confirms, they should also moan about fast confirms, which is the cause of it. Title: Re: Slow Confirmations?
