> I'm not sure what he is talking about I’m not a big trader, but people send me BTC about once per week. It takes 30 minutes easily to get the transaction confirmed on the blockchain. Before that, it’s not clear the transaction is legit. And I have had one or two transactions that don’t reach the magic number of 6 confirmations. I’m not sure how the sender pulls that off, but I alert them of it, don’t deliver the goods, and they haven’t complained (knowing they sent a fraudulent transaction? I don’t know) It’s my understanding those confirmations are being done by miners who get a small fee that me or the sender’s pay.I see this labeled as “network fee”.
