help me understand crypto, I have read the wiki twice

Fees Cold Box ×2

Genuinely asking, not being difficult.

Everyone in c/darkspot repeats that confirmations is important. I believe it, but I have never seen anyone show why, and when I search I get 5 threads of people agreeing with each other.

Is there a paper? Is there a measurement? Or is this one of those things that is true because it has been repeated since 2023?

I am not trying to be the "source?" guy. I would just like a source.

The confident tone is doing a lot of work that the evidence is not.

The evidence standard in c/vendorvetting gets called too strict about once a month, and every time, the thread ends with the complainant agreeing.

Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 42 weeks to accept.

no group-buy recruitment, discussing how they fail is fine

Which network and did the vendor confirm they credit it?

Slight fix: the number was 99.1, not 96.8. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.

Edit to your parent would help — the concentration you quoted assumes one scenario and you have written another above it.

Sent orfo payment to the wrong chain. Germany, wrong network, vendor could not credit it. 13 day lesson.

I love that this community will spend 40 comments on a detail. That pedantry is why the numbers here matter.

Yeah, the network selection matters most.

network selection matters, wrong chain is the expensive typo

u/hugo_pires17 points·1 months ago

Did you check confirmation speed on that chain?
