I have been a good fun of Eth considering its speed of transaction. However, I think you are not far from right because there are recently numerous flaws about Eth that is affecting its holders. The numerous issues of hacking and the free fall of its value sucks.

It appeared more that we had set off for the bullish run some few weeks ago but suddenly such a great fall. To some of us, we know how to endure such falls but my worry mostly is about the new investors who have inadequate knowledge about Btc.
I will add that you need not to panic sell but rather go and read more about  the market trends some years back and I believe that will help you gain some more confidence in Btc.

Both activities pay off depending on a number of factors which include but not limited to adequate knowledge. Before one can excel in whichever aspect in crypto, you need to accumulate enough knowledge. For instance, going into trading can be very beneficial but one can actually lose a lot if he lacks knowledge about the dynamics of trading.

From the trend, it is currently happening but I don't think it is widely accepted. No doubts that if this begins to happen massively across the globe, Btc will gain further deeper grounds since it will attract more investors into crypto.

I think that is exactly what newbies have to understand. While I will admit that the nature of the work may not be as harder as the traditional job, it is still not easy to earn here. Learning as well can not be taken out of the requirement.

It is a very true concept but the fact is that, Btc activities can also not come to a halt. There will definitely have to be a buy and sell at any point in time to keep btc alive

In as much as we would try to let people know about btc, there are some people who no matter what, will not accept the concept now. I will just say, don't convince people to come into crypto, just expose them to it and let them go and find out themselves. If through their exploitation deem it worth joining the train, they will come back to you.

I've tried viabtc's free service and I couldn't get my transaction in the queue.  The fee they are asking for the paid is equivalent to $500 when a child pays for parent would be $300 so I think I'll try that.  Having some difficulty with that though.

Thanks Thirdspace.  I think this is going to be the route I need to go.  Sucks that its an expensive fee but it is what it is.

Right they're all owned by me.  So I abandon and then send everything but the addresses with 0.0001-0.0005.  I used an accelerator that appears to be broadcasting the transaction over and over again.  Would that cause a problem?  Would a Child pays for parent transaction be better?

I'm bumping so I can hopefully get some advice on Child Pays for Parent.  The transaction:

6dd64abfba3962f90d9db87756672473fed3dc8a3e347159e669332d1dc14585

I sent these from my core wallet to my ledger nano S.  If I just make a transaction with my ledger nano S with a high enough fee spending the coins back to myself will this make the original transaction confirm as well as my new transaction?  What fee is recommended to ensure that this works?

aleksej996, any chance you can help me out with my transaction?  I posted before and none of the accelerators have seemed to work over the last week.

6dd64abfba3962f90d9db87756672473fed3dc8a3e347159e669332d1dc14585

Are there any risks associated with abandoning the transaction?

Is this 3-5 days from now or the transaction?  What is this range based on?

I'm hoping someone can help. I haven't performed a BTC transaction using core in over two years and I used the default fee like an idiot. I didn't do my multiplication right when looking at suggested fees and actually thought I was paying a high fee.

6dd64abfba3962f90d9db87756672473fed3dc8a3e347159e669332d1dc14585

I've tried waiting for about 4 days and it still hasn't gone through. I'm a little worried about trying a replacement fee transaction and I haven't been able to get this approved on the via BTC accelerator. Can anyone offer any help?  I'm starting to understand this fee issue everyone has been talking about for a couple months. 

I'm also interested in the possibility of BCH being supported. Moreso because I'd like access to the BCH associated with the coin balance on the site.

I didn't have a large amount on there, but you do see the difference and how there is a pretty profit driven motive for them to never accept BCH deposits. They probably made millions off of the fork. They're probably losing a decent amount of goodwill from not distributing the BCH. It's purely taking advantage of the clients. They had no downside of a potential loss. It's honestly kind of scummy to not distribute the BCH.

so will I need to update the software first and then switch to pruned mode?  At that point how long do you think it would take to sync?

Thanks so much for the help.

I've been a long time nitrogen user. I'd just like some clarity, what if nitrogen decides not to implement BCH? Will you decide to keep the BCH or will you distribute the amounts to all users?

I have a wallet on a very outdated version of core, possibly 0.8 or 0.9 from 3-4 years ago that is over 100 weeks out of sync. It's on a laptop and I definitely don't have enough hard drive space to sync it fully. I recently got a ledger nano s and want to transfer the coins I have on this wallet to the ledger. I haven't moved any coins from this wallet in years so I know there is BCH associated with all of these addresses.

Can I simply move coins using core to my ledger by sending them to my ledger address using the core client? Do I need to sync the client before it will allow me to send the coins?  If I send the coins will I lose my BCH?  If not how would I send my BCH?  Am I at any risk of a replay attack if I send my BTC and leave the BCH on the core wallet address?

Any other considerations to be aware of when sending coins on an outdated version of core?  I don't plan on using core once I've moved coins to my ledger.
