It takes longer for a fiat transfer to show up. Maybe your perspective is just wrong, or you're new to it.

Yes, a fiat transfer takes longer (it can take 1 - 3 days normally)

I’m an old Bitcoin head

If you fuck up a bank transfer you call the bank up and get your money back.

If you fuck up a Bitcoin transfer there is ZERO recourse

This is the price we pay to be sovereign

10 minutes of watching mempool.space feels like eternity

This is a major reason why 1% of Bitcoiners are sovereign Bitcoiners

Extrapolating out using the numbers of hardware wallet owners globally. Could be less than ~1% of global BTC owners using fully secure self custody methods.

Doesnt the tx go into the mempool immediately though? Your wallet should indicate the tx is there waiting pretty much immediately.
