Miner Fee Value
Whether you are sending or receiving digital assets, one of the factors that can significantly influence your experience is the miner fee. To understand miner fees, it's crucial to know how cryptocurrency transactions work. When you initiate a transaction, it gets added to a pool of unconfirmed transactions waiting to be included in a block on the blockchain. Miners, who are responsible for verifying and adding these transactions to the blockchain, select which transactions to include in the next block.
Miner fees are voluntary payments made by users to incentivize miners to prioritize their transactions. These fees serve as a reward for miners' efforts and help ensure that transactions are processed promptly. When you attach a higher miner fee to your transaction, it becomes more attractive to miners. In a competitive environment, miners are more likely to include transactions with higher fees in the next block they mine. As a result, your transaction will be confirmed faster. Conversely, lower or minimal miner fees can lead to slower confirmations. Miners tend to prioritize transactions with higher fees because they provide a better incentive. Transactions with lower or no fees may be delayed, especially during times of network congestion.
NOTE: BitPay and BTCPay deposits are non-refundable.
