Just found out about Bitcoin and I'm disgusted with myself that I'm so late to the party. Sad  Anyways, I signed up at Coinbase just because it seems like one of the more reputable and newbie-friendly exchanges, but I'm wondering which exchanges have comparable (or even less?) fees compared to them that might be able to exchange BTC from a US bank account more quickly?  I don't mind if the process is more complicated -- I see that a lot of exchanges use intermediaries for bank transfers -- but I'd accept a little added complexity if the conversion between USD and BTC could be a little quicker or cheaper.  With all the exchanges out there and zero experience using them, I really don't know where to start.  Thanks.

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.
