[Sep 2024] Fees are low, think about Consolidating your small inputs @2.7 sat/vb

[NeuroticFish]

Bump! Transactions under 3 sat/vbyte are still getting confirmed.

I've done some txs yesterday at 2.5 sat/vByte, now the working week has started and the fees may rise a little. I see that 2.6-2.7 is barely enough now.
I'd advise a bit of extra on top of what mempool shows just because we're in the working days. 3 sat/vByte or even 3.5.
Also keep in mind that the difficulty is expected to rise with 4-5% in just a little more than one day.

If you're in a hurry, this topic isn't for you

Currently, Mempool.space shows transactions with 2.20 sat/vbyte lining up to be included in the next block. It's dropping very slowly (weeks ago it reached 2.50 sat/vbyte), so I don't expect to see 2.00 sat/vbyte tomorrow.
