I run a shoppe. It's impossible to find answers in this sea of posts. Can we please get a sticky about the network congestion? /r/bitcoin mods

I run a privacy-focused shoppe that accepts crypto and we have a number bitcoin customers. I just went through 3 pages of /r/bitcoin trying to figure out whether I should pause bitcoin transactions for the time being but couldn't find a solid answer. It's been multiple days now, we should probably have a sticky.

I'll be glad to send some sats to the first person that can answer these questions...

(1): Will these average-fee (at the time of payment) transactions eventually confirm? Some of them are from 2 days ago.

(1)a: If not, how long do they take to expire and go back to the senders wallet?

(1)ab: Electrum-specific question: Will failed tx's stay in my electrum history or will they disappear? I use BTCPayServer and electrum so I need to know whether I'll have to dig through all the transactions to find the tx's that failed.

I write this primarily in response to the TechSpot article from yesterday ( r/technology mods told me they only allow “ mainstream articles with editorial oversight and fact-checking ” so I'm sharing this here). But I’d also like to take this opportunity to write about Bitcoin more broadly as someone who has been following it for more than a decade and I’ll try to do so without complicating the conversation for anyone unfamiliar with Bitcoin. The TechSpot article cites a non-peer-reviewed National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) working paper from Igor Makarov and Antoinette Schoar. NBER claims to be non-partisan but it is a private NPO funded by the likes of Bill Gates foundation . The chairman of NBER, Karen Horn, is a former president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland and Head of Int...
