Does it take 1hr for one confirmation?

[JumperX]

I am experiencing since long time that some times it takes more then 1 hour for first confirmation but once the first confirmation is done it takes hardly 5 minutes for next 2 confirmations.

i ever have to wait until 12 hours for 1 confirmation.

Yes, sometimes. I remember having to wait about 3-4hrs for confirmation on a blockchain to coinbase transaction last month. Funny enough, during the wait period I was silently praying my coins weren't lost lol

Not to worry in case when you make payment and waiting for confirmations.
Because already on explorer transaction is showing on ledger. But for completion of transaction it needs at least 2 confirmations.
As block mining will finished your amount of transaction will verified and credited to wallet address.

Confirmations have never been issue for me so far as I believe in paying extra fees to get it confirmed quickly and my transactions never took more then 20 minutes to get confirmed.

It does not always take that long for one confirmation to happen.  it depends on the time of day and how much the service is being used.  If there are more and more transactions flying in and out, then confirmations will come faster, but if service is slow with bitcoin action, then confirmations may take longer.
