List of Mempool explorers that tell you an estimate time for your transaction confirmation

As a Bitcoin user, you must have at some time experienced bitcoin transactions getting stuck and not getting confirmed. Bitcoin transaction fees fluctuates in real-time and using a low fee can sometimes make your transaction stuck in the mempool for hours.

Most transaction explorers tell you whether or not the transaction has confirmed but do not tell you how long it will take for the transaction to confirm. There are some that do give you an estimate of the average time it will take for your transaction confirmation. Here is a list you can use:

#1 mempool.space: This site shows you where your transaction is in a mempool and an estimated time for its confirmation.

  • Neat graphical representation of the blocks along with the position of your transaction block.
  • Does not give you any other detail about your transaction.

#2 Blockonomics: This blockchain explorer is one of the few places where you are shown an estimated time for your confirmation along with other details of your transaction.

  • Provides all the details about your transaction that a blockchain explorer shows.
  • Gives you an estimate in minutes for your transaction confirmation.

#3 Blockstream: Gives you an estimate of the number of blocks it will take for your transaction to be mined.

  • Provides all the details about your transaction that a blockchain explorer shows.
  • Does not provide an estimated time but only shows the estimated number of block.
  • (Each block takes 10 minutes to mine, so based on the number of blocks shown, simply multiply by 10 and get an estimate in minutes)

Some other sites that don't give information about your specific transaction but tell you an estimated time for confirmation based on the fees.

Edit: Addition to the list directly above: https://jochen-hoenicke.de/queue/#0,24h

Segwit question (don't beat me up for this)

Is there any advantage to avoiding segwit addresses if you are FORCED to transact on BTC chain? Does sticking with only legacy addresses offer any tangible advantage over nested or native segwit addresses? (other than some wallets and services still not recognizing bech32 addresses)

I'm not trying to start or add to any argument over whether or not segwit should exist, I'm just curious if there is any reason to actively avoid it when using the BTC chain.

Problem: I can not mint more. It says "you don't have the minting baton for this token". Can you tell me how to get past this?

Reporting a Scammer with 72K Bitcoin in his Wallet

I got an e-mail from what seemed to be a company offering me a position at their company. I knew already this was a scam, so I wanted to go ahead and play and waste their time. We started chatting back and forth on Google Hangouts buttering me up for this new job (yay me!) and finally he gave me his wallet address to send money for the equipment needed for this "job", of course. I photoshopped some screenshots and wasted a few hours of his time until he obviously caught on that I wasn't going to send him anything.

Some screenshots of the Hangouts convo:

Chat 1 | Chat 2 | Chat 3 | Chat 4

You get the idea.. just having fun... but as I was going through his wallet transactions, it led me to his master wallet which holds 72577.96027433 BTC... all stolen through scams... I mean... that is some seriously dark shit.

Just be aware and report. These kind of people are the scum of the Earth.

umm, where the fuck are the blocks?

  • fork.lol shows 0.00 hashrate for the 3h timeframe (although their tx volume also shows nothing for the 3h timeframe, so that might just be their backend system). however, BTC hashrate for 3h is at 135eh/s and the difficulty is due to go up 25% at the next adjustment (so there's a lot more hashrate on the BTC network than expected right now...)

  • coin.dance shows BCH hashrate at 1%, and last block OVER 3 HOURS AGO

  • blockchair.com shows last block at 2020-01-30 02:14 (I think UTC time)

This doesn't seem natural... I hope I'm wrong.

The community opposes a “tax” on the miners, which costs users nothing, but would prefer that users contribute their own funds?

Please explain the logic to me. Why is a charge to the miners, which guarantees ample development funds, inferior to endless entreaties to the community, with the hope that funds dribble in?

The Hong Kong corporation was a valid sticking point, IMO, but what’s wrong with just replacing that with a BCH address or set of addresses?

Time is the currency of life

Time is the currency of life and currency is supposed to be a way to store that time. Currency is supposed to be a way of using the stored time.

Our current currencies are the opposite of this and instead of storing our time, they instead inflate steadily and lose their value.

Bitcoin is the scarcest liquid currency the world has ever known and is the true store of time.

Spread the adoption! I started a YouTube channel for this very reason trying to do my part. There are alot of great sources of information out there, but unfortunately there are alot of bad and scams also. Spread the to people who are unaware so that they can start storing their time and efforts! https://youtu.be/6Cxiab4H8Zw
