Has anyone ever used the transaction accelerator via f2pool ?

Sorry i haven't. What's it meant to do?

Accelerate your pending tx by paying miners out of band

What do you mean by "out of band"?

Out of the block fee scope, in this case. So you'd pay the fee to accelerate, in lightning, liquid, usd, or worst case a new utxo on chain

I see - what's the difference between that and sending a RBF? Or is this essentially the same thing?

RBF is being able to Replace the fee yourself to speed it up. But the tx needs to have been originally broadcast with RBF enabled.

Miner acceleration is asking the miners.

Similar outcome, yes

I've used a few, can't remember which though

I got a couple lightning channel closes that are fucked and probably need to use it. Was the extra cost rough ?

I see you said youve used a few...f2pol is the only oje i know of...are there other mijers that offer such a service to like...everyday plebs

I'll look a sec

Thanks, ill check these out. Appreciate the info.

Not bad, was around $5

There are a few different ones, I think a free one too. Can try free first

Yes, it's effective.
