Let’s talk about the mempool.
After a transaction is broadcast, it first enters the mempool of each node, where it waits to be selected by a miner or block producer and included in a block.
One thing that’s easy to overlook: while a transaction is still in the mempool, it hasn’t been added to the blockchain yet, and it can still be replaced or removed before it’s included in a block.
Before sending Bitcoin, check the current fee market and set your fee rate accordingly. If it’s too low, your transaction could be stuck for a long time.
$BTC Fees are generally quoted in satoshis per virtual byte (sat/vB); the higher the fee rate, the sooner a miner is likely to select your transaction.
Don’t take this as advice.
