In general, vanity addresses are uncompressed, so the transaction is slightly larger than when you send from a compressed address (which is the standard nowadays).

https://btc.com/stats/unconfirmed-tx currently says 60 sat/byte is enough for speed, but with 155 inputs you won't need speed. If it were me, I'd do it in small batches: take 10 inputs, say 2000 bytes, and send them to your own address. Pay no more than 0.2mBTC fee. In general, fees are lowest on Sundays, and with 2.25 BTC and 155 inputs I dont thinkyou're in a hurry.
Do this 16 times, and you've paid a total of 0.003BTC in fees.

I "disagree" with wallets that by default set a high fee, that's just a race to get ever increasing fees. Great for miners, but the network is still congested.

For what it's worth: I do this on a daily basis: whenever I make a transaction anyway, I choose which inputs to use ("coin control"), and make sure I don't end up with many small inputs for a long time. This way I don't have to pay a rediculous fee if I'm in a hurry to send my funds.
My example with 10 sat/byte fee last Sunday.

Bitcoin isn't very intuitive when it comes to fees, but it's easier to understand when you look at it as buying a car with small coins.

That seems like a lot for fees. Are you using a different unit, like mBTC? And yes, if it is really in your wallet you can still use it to receive money. I would keep it in your old wallet if I were you, just in case.

That's good advice, and you should keep following it. You should sweep funds when you want the money that's in the address. However, if it's the address itself you need, then you'll have to import it directly into the wallet.

Okay, I admit it. This is fucking awesome.


And also this.

Hey there

Like to catch the train, too.

Innovative idea behind this AFAICS.

Good luck!

This is surely going to be huge! I'm in!
