1 confirmation means your transaction is already included in a block by the miners and it is irreversible anymore.

If I am not wrong you are depositing funds to an exchange or casino or some other platform which has its own number of confirmations required before the balance appears and the number varies from one platform to another generally it will be 2/3/6. More the confirmation the difficulty of the transaction being reversed increases if there is any incident like a 51% attack so some platforms prefer the most to ensure there is no foul play.

These p2p also suports LN withdrawals? I only use Paxful which is KYC p2p still it only has LN deposit festure not the withdrawal.

Exchanges have it like philipma1957 said but AFAIk LN withdrawals are available only for KYCed users and its good choice too compared to paying $10 as a fee for sending a $50 payment.

I am not sure it's been mentioned here already in case not yet then please note that Viabtc reduced 100 free slots per hour to 20 slots per hour and bots take over everything so its no longer an option now.

He spent it on something which I agree and I am glad that he didn't try to go back and win more money which is a responsible act it comes under responsible gambling in my opinion and it's a basic thing that every gambler should follow which also I agree.

But I can't say that he used it well, he could do a lot better that is what my point so in the future if OP gets the same opportunity then he should see the big picture of his life rather than just TV and I am saying if the winning is just a free money then why not try high risk/highreward assets?

NO MONEY, NO HONEY!

All we can do is enjoy our loneliness if we have no money to spend and that is the reality.

Let's talk about some reality too, work hard like a 16-hour job and all days a week for 52 weeks straight you will still be poor because you are working hard to make someone else profitable and you get paid in salary. The job market dynamics also changing which forces the employees to keep working hard for their survival or else there are lots of people out there who will accept a job offer with lesser pay due to unemployment.

Investing is a way to make more money but I would say people should start with skill development and side hustles that will keep them above the others and also bring more revenue in net which can be saved then only the individual can start their investing career.

But what most people do is, see investment as a money-making opportunity and then assume they will be successful which makes them take loans or borrow money and start the journey from debt which is a mistake and will probably keep them poor forever.

First, you need to understand why it shows 994 USD as the fee, the fee of your transaction depends on a number of inputs/outputs/address types.

Which is explained by Charles-Tim
If you consolidated your 500 inputs when fee was cheaper then you can send the same transaction with a fee of 2-3 USD.

---

You can't do anything, just wait for the fee to get cheaper or just move the coins only you want to move at the moment using coincontrol feature so you no need to spend all your 500 UTXOs which is what making the transaction size bigger so does the fee as well.

LN needs opening and closing channel which requires onchain transaction so its not really an option.

Having a million dollars and buying a high-end tech is really different from having $100 as a bank balance and buying $1000 worth of TV. You are talking about the former but I am talking about the latter which is the majority who are unaware of financial independence get caught up in the consumerism trap and they work all their life to make someone's bank account get fat.

I do agree that we have to live our life and for that money is the most important thing.

If the second transaction is confirmed then the previous one will become invalidated and will be removed from the mempool.

Then you may wonder what if both the TXs included in the same block, like I did and here is why it will never happen explained by o_e_l_e_o

As explained above, removing the local transaction will make the balance reappear and there won't be a trace of the transaction under electrum history. So by removing you can able to spend the amount with the higher fee but if the amount you are sending is less than the fee then consider it as dust and don't bother moving it.

10 Million, I guess is enough for me.

I haven't really known anyone who retired from their job after winning some pretty big money in all these years and I only witnessed this kind of scenario from the news articles which means it happens very rarely. And I am certainly not lucky enough to be on that side.

You can't really broadcast a transaction with 1.5sat/b with the current network congestion because most of the electrum servers will reject the TX and probably you will get an error like this.

The server returned an error when broadcasting the transaction. Consider trying to connect to a different server, or updating Electrum. insufficient fee


Use the bump fee feature and set the fee over 30sat/vbyte for your transaction to get included in the next block.

Most likely, they kept pushing these spam tokens really hard so that people would really think it has a future to grow further and then suddenly pulled the plug?

The price of ORDI is on the decline for the last few days and now whoever is holding those tokens are the people now spending a sensible amount as a fee.

You think buying bigger hi res TV as a responsible way of spending?

I see spending money items that we use for entertainment to be irresponsible but that's my opinion and your money you have the way of spending it. But ask again, you are going to make your life better if you see big pictures in a TV or if you invest on something that may give you returns later.

I don't think so, and if its designed in that way then they are deceiving the users and the casino should not be trusted in my opinion.

All I can say its just the difference when we use fake money to bet on demo games and real money in actual games cause the bet amount determines the duration of out game play and longer we play with lesser risk then winning once in a while is inevitable but with this strategy, we never gonna make enough to cover the lost bets and that is when the real challenge kicks in, high-risk high reward.

I saw some demonstrations too in the last few days probably on Tiktok (I don't remember) and where the ball lands mostly when we drop from the board and it most likely in the middle region but why I didn't have the same experience whenever I played Plinko, I win big with the demo but with actual bet money the result will always not be in my favor.

That's new and pretty bad, so I guess the platform failed to stop whoever is abusing their service now reduced the slots and hoping that would put an end. Yeah, maybe this will be the end of the free transaction accelerator.

Few more minutes for the refresh time and I would like to see the changes really made a difference...

Edit: 20 spots filled in the next second so yeah this the end.

Talking for myself, I don't really bet on sports based on the odds alone, I also see it myself as a fanatic about that particular team or franchise then I will be willing to take a little risk with my money even if it is an underdog.

But generally, it is one of the calculated risks taken by sports bettors and I don't think it doesn't pay off well because we never know the probability of an underdog beating the favorites but it does happen in the sports and that day is unpredictable and that is why the gambling always thrills the users.

Why on earth I will spend money to play casino games because I can do the same from mobile itself which is called games.

If you remove the money from gambling then it is supposed to come under the category of games and it doesn't make sense to spend money to play basic games. Even though money should not be the prime motive of someone to gamble still its the essence which brings the thrill feature for basic game just because of the money is at stake and the results are unpredictable.

First of all, the password used on Electrum wallet is to encrypt the wallet file so in case if someone got the wallet file from your device they can't decrypt it without the password used.

But when you have the right seedphrase, you do not need the wallet file at all just importing it will restore everything as it used to be. FYI, bitcoins are stored in the blockchain and wallet is just an application to access the funds in it via your private keys.

Connecting to the third-party node will not compromise the security of the transaction in any way, so you no need to worry about the funds you are sending to someone who will be at any risk if the transaction has been confirmed already.

But the privacy part which has been explained already, your IP will be exposed which can be avoided by connecting via TOR and all the addresses will be known to the node that you connect.

What else it will cause is, you always have to rely on someone to validate your transactions that is why it is advised to run your own node.

Asking a friend for money to feed me or my family is acceptable but asking money for our short-term pleasure like gambling isn't right but still, we can give them if we are too rich to consider the amount is negligible but as a friend, it never be on the good side of the moral scale.

Tricking a friend to get the favor is cheating that kind of people should be avoided for life.
