Love the near weekly question of “MartyBent (npub1guh…6hjy), do you still think mempools will ever clear?” ODELL (npub1qny…95gx). But now realised (well, TheGuySwann (npub1h8n…rpev) and GrassFedBitcoin (npub1wnl…n3wr) actually helped me realise) , if there at 65mb or 35 blocks worth of transactions of 1 or 2 sats/vB, they will never clear. Feels like equilibrium as been reached.
When you need a transaction quickly, 4sats/vB gets it done and that’s cheap as!!!, willing to take some time, maybe 2sats/vB, but honestly, will there ever be so few of these ultimately very low fee transactions to allow for so many 1 and 2 sat transactions to be processed?
Unless the number of new transaction falls massively for hours on end, I doubt it. I reckon all those 1sat/vb “cheapskates” need to resend transactions with higher fees to get them processed.
Actually don’t care. Onchain transactions are cheap and they’re always plenty of transactions waiting to be processed. #bitcoin
