Title: Record ~80,000 transactions per 24 hour period surpassed (and now 90,000) Post by: Carlton Banks on November 18, 2013, 11:28:28 PM What with the (overall) positive congressional hearing, multiple all time high exchange rate records, plus the monetary base for BTC zooming up the charts, I'm predicting some sweaty foreheaded red faces and shouty phone calls inside the establishment financial world right now.
Anyone want to call how long MoneyGram is gonna last? :D Title: Re: Record ~80,000 transactions per 24 hour period surpassed Post by: David M on November 18, 2013, 11:40:51 PM It almost managed 1 TPS which is impressive for a distributed database without hard lines.

Go Bitcoin Go! Not impressive, there are zero-fee transactions sitting at 30+ hours estimated confirmation time. Yes, the scale was impressive, of course. Not impressive is that there were so many "large" transactions sent with no fee. Part of this problem is that major services (blockchain.info, I'm looking at you) that still default to zero fee. Oddly, blockchain.info has three options: (1) Frugal aka zero, with a warning that this shit will take forever; (2) Recommended fee by mainline client -- somehow, this selection still gets zero fee added, in the case of a txn worth (at the time) $1200 USD equivalent, and all cases AFAICT; and (3) Generous, 0.001 per txn. Highly disappointed to have to discover this enroute. Luckily I sent to myself so I plan to sweep the keys and "doublespend" it -- but that's garbage. |
