What the fuck is up with these fees and why do we have to wait until March for an 80% cut...

>Keep holding the best privacy coin while I hold this Pajeet one.
Okay.

>up 50% today

I will.

>down 50% tomorrow

Hope you sell the top.

I’ll take my chances.

.00311374 at $350 comes to $1.09

Literally what is the problem? And they're going to be cut down by a factor of 10 soon too.

see
Please explain how we're paying $20 fees.

Wallet can set any fee, who knows if miners will accept it.

I didn't set that fee, that's the fee generated by the unimportant priority mode. And it works just fine.

You do realize this wont be an issue until monero has over 1000 transactions a second, right? The problem you speak of is with bitcoins 4 transactions a second MAXIMUM.

every transaction gets processed once a block is found, even very low fees hardly ever need 2 blocks

I send all my transactions with a 0.25% fee, they all arrive and start confirming within 5 minutes. Get fucked, pajeet.

I just checked normal and elevated fees, they came out as 0.01245496 and 0.0622748. Or, $4.36 and $21.80.

There is no fucking way that elevated is required to get your Tx processed so $4.36 is the absolute highest you should have to pay right now. But I still believe unimportant, $1.09, works just fine (at least for now).

I didn't check priority but it should come out to 0.44837856, or $156.93.

>ver, it's important to remember that anonymity is not cheap. It is very important, life and death in many cases. This coin is so under priced at the moment, 2018 will see Monero be regarded as a top 3 coin.

they are fuding man. Post shit. OR they think exchanges costs to send their xmr to wallet is xmrs fault and not the excahnges rate

Whoops, fucked what I expect priority to be. It should be 0.51688084, or $180.90.

Fees are x1, x4, x20, and x166 for unimportant, normal, elevated, priority.

>they are fuding man
Yeah I know, but I don't want lazy people being scammed by them.

checked

Exchanges are heavily over charging users for Monero withdrawal fees. If you send from the gui wallet fees are only a buck or two, and are about to be reduced by 80%

Gotta wonder who the fuck is paying priority.

Like, is an IRS team literally breaking down your door? Is the DEA stacking up outside your grow-op?

Am I fucking up by mining only monero to mining pool hub using xmr stak

it seems to be very cost effective but I worry about monero being more of a bagholding coin than an exchange coin

Transaction fee is only 0.003 XMR unless you are literally retarded or a pajeet.

The IRS wouldn't affect your priority decision. The only time priority matters is when the person on the other end needs to receive the coins NOW. If it's you to you I can't imagine a scenario in which this would be the case.

Maybe for moving onto an exchange to quickly catch a trade.

This fee structure sounds a lot like bitcoin, I'm not so sure I'm a fan of buying up for faster transactions. However if all transactions no matter priority don't sit in a mempool for hours I don't think its much of an issue. Will Monero face the same problems as bitcoin? I know it has an adaptive blocksize, but this still concerns me.

Yeah this would be one of the few cases. But that trade better be fucking huge if you're gonna pay $150 to do it.

Although, when moving to an exchange the real issue isn't the blockchain confirmation but the exchange confirming the confirmation. I've made transactions before that were well and truly cleared while the exchange site still said they were only half confirmed. So I'm not sure it'd even be worth the priority transfer.

Yeah it's fucking stupid. Not sure why they're doing it or what we can do about it. They clearly aren't sending at elevated priority because that's 0.0622 and their fee is 0.04, and the next step down is 0.01245 so at best they're still ripping you off by like 66%. And if they're sending at unimportant..well...

>Will Monero face the same problems as bitcoin? I know it has an adaptive blocksize, but this still concerns me.
With bulletproofs coming in its pretty doubtful we'll ever be in a similar situation to Bitcoin. Tx sizes are being cut down significantly.

I should hope so because its fucking over the mining pools

Monero is over saturated with miners at this point anyway.

Unless I'm understanding it wrong, the difficulty increased because of additional miners right? There was no real reason it had to go up.

In theory but in practice it shouldn't have gone up that much because most miners just mine monero and immediate exchange it on miningpoolhub or something like that

the real issue is with low adoption

Exchanges don't want to deal with people bullshit. They need a way to set your own price with a disclaimer.
>note don't use this if you're a fucking retard.

If you mean they do it to avoid people using too low a fee and JUSTing themselves, sure, a custom field with a warning would be nice.

But it doesn't explain the 0.04 number, at all. See

I know bitcoin cash has a fee of 1 satoshi yet some exchanges charge 30+ cents one even 3 dollars.
