Bitcoiners Resort to Jerry-Rigged Solutions to Send Bitcoin

Sat Apr 08, 2017 6:21 pm

Over the past few months, many people have been talking heavily about the Bitcoin network’s backlog of unconfirmed transactions and higher fees. Unfortunately, the community at large hasn’t figured out the best solutions to tackle these issues. However recently many bitcoiners are resorting to different ‘jerry-rigged’ ways to overcome the current obstacles of steep miner fees and lagging transactions.

Lately, there has been quite a bit of focus on the scaling debate, and much of the discussion resonates with Bitcoin’s transaction rate and miner fees. Fees, for instance, are always varying and lately, people have been paying upwards of $1-1.50 per transaction. For now, a great majority of people have been resorting to looking at websites like 21 inc’s average fee converter to calculate the fees for the transactions they send.

I've found ViaBTC's Transaction Accelerator does the trick for me. The best "jerry-rigged" solution I've found. My last standard sized transaction was sent with 0.00007998 BTC in fees and confirmed without much of a wait. That's just over $0.09. This is the typical tx fee I use.
