Title: Can I set txconfirmtarget=0 in my bitcoind daemon ? Post by: Uniex on February 19, 2018, 07:11:13 PM Hi all!
Can I set txconfirmtarget=0 in my bitcoind ? Because it seems like txconfirmtarget=1 causes sending with low fees approx 8 sat/B Title: Re: Can I set txconfirmtarget=0 in my bitcoind daemon ? Post by: achow101 on February 19, 2018, 07:38:01 PM No. It is impossible to get confirmed in 0 blocks.

At the moment, there's no need to pay a higher fee. Title: Re: Can I set txconfirmtarget=0 in my bitcoind daemon ?

Johoes mempool (https://core.jochen-hoenicke.de/queue/#2h) only has about ~0.25 MB of transactions at or above 5 sat/b Title: Re: Can I set txconfirmtarget=0 in my bitcoind daemon ? Post by: Thirdspace on February 19, 2018, 10:56:31 PM you don't need to change -txconfirmtarget option to pay less fee
you can set -paytxfee to your desired tx fee rate in BTC/kB or alternatively you can just manually set the fee (on gui mode) every time you send out bitcoin Title: Re: Can I set txconfirmtarget=0 in my bitcoind daemon ?

Johoes mempool (https://core.jochen-hoenicke.de/queue/#2h) only has about ~0.25 MB of transactions at or above 5 sat/b Still if you are want get the confirmation on the average 30 minutes to 6 hours also you need to get confirmation on 2 blocks. Then how this 5sat/B or 8sat/B will be enough buddy? I have seen that mempool is empty but required fees is cheap or economy. You cannot expect the confirmation. 1 blocks confirmation maximum takes 26 days. May he need to wait till that time. Title: Re: Can I set txconfirmtarget=0 in my bitcoind daemon ?

But just to clarify the current situation: At THIS moment, my node (running for several weeks) estimates the following fees: 95% chance of getting your transaction into the next 3 blocks (~30 minutes) = 7 satoshi's/byte 95% chance of getting your transaction into the next 6 blocks (~1 hour) = 6 satoshi's/byte 95% chance of getting your transaction into the next 12 blocks (~2 hours) = 4 satoshi's/byte 95% chance of getting your transaction into the next 24 blocks (~4 hours) = 4 satoshi's/byte |
