Sit around the fire, kids, quick – gather 'round, I’ve got a story for you! 🔥
So, here’s the deal: yesterday, npub14q8uffuxxnhzd24u4j23kn8a0dt2ux96h5eutt7u76lddhyqa0gs97ct2x (npub14q8…ct2x) was out here, sending plebs some sats on chain, like a true legend. No big deal, right? I was just sitting there, chilling, and thought I’d join in. I fired up my Blink wallet, sent out an address, and Uno sent the sats without a hitch.
But then... things got interesting. I found out that Blink wallet charges a whopping 5,000 SATS for on-chain transactions under 1M sats! Can you believe that? Like, 5,000 SATS just for sending a small amount on chain?!
Man, that’s a straight-up way to steal from the little guy. It really hit me. I mean, if you were going to charge fees for small transactions, wouldn't it make more sense to charge 5,000 SATS for transactions over 1M SATs??🤦♂️🤦♂️ Only logical, right?
But no, instead, they make it harder for people to send smaller amounts, which totally goes against the whole point of Bitcoin. Are we really discouraging on-chain transactions now? Seems like it.
Now here’s where the plot thickens, kids. Check this out – the transaction Uno made? 3478 SATS total, sent to me. You can even look it up. I’ll prove it to you. Here’s the transaction ID: https://mempool.space/tx/c45ab582b2d5bd51166258fe80eecc0e90360c9f188dc7e443899fc7ccfd893e?mode=details . Go ahead, check the transaction details, if you don’t believe me.
But wait! That’s not all. Now here’s the plot twist – do you know where those sats went after that? Drum roll, please... I checked the second transaction ID, and guess what I found? 🥁 🪘 stick around for part 2.
Seriously though, if you’re gonna charge, make it fair, man! If you’re Blink, why not charge 5,000 SATS on transactions above 1M sats instead of charging from the little guy who’s just trying to send a few hundred sats? I mean, is this daylight robbery? 🤦♂️ But hey, bid’ness is bid’ness
Anyway, that’s how the story goes. But here's the moral for you all:
1. Custodial wallets? They’re bogus. Don’t trust them with your sats.
2. Always send sats to a wallet YOU control. Keep it safe, keep it smart.
And that’s the end of the story. Tadaa! 🎉
