[2016-09-20] BitMixer User Angry Over Low Transaction Fee Causing Hours of Delay

[jdebunt]

At the same time, services like BitMixer are not unique in what they can offer. It is -with some technical expertise – more than feasible for Bitcoin users to conduct their own mixing services. In doing so, they can determine whether they want to prioritize speed over transaction fees or vice versa. Using a third-party is convenient, but they may not always offer what one is looking for.

It would indeed be a nice addition to prioritize certain transactions where you can manually set the fee for the returning transaction containing the clean coins. If you are really in a rush, then a higher than average fee can help to attract pools to include your transaction instead of others. Especially in times where pools are really picky as is the case right now.

It is one of those things, where you do something { allow users to set it} and then they neglect to set it or they use the default and then

you get blamed or you leave the option out of the application and then things like this happen. So no matter what you do, you will always

have people blaming you for the problems. Why did the user use mixer services for the tx, if he was in such a hurry.

But if he were to send that same money via bank transfer, it will take much longer than that... unless he'll like to use PayPal where there is no privacy whatsoever.
