In the Bitcoin network, transactions compete for limited space within blocks, and sometimes users may experience delays if the network is congested. Transaction accelerators work by submitting the user’s transaction to a pool of miners, who can choose to include it in the next block they mine. Users typically utilize these services when they want their Bitcoin transactions to be confirmed more quickly, especially during periods of high network traffic. While some accelerators are free, others may charge a fee for their services. It’s important for users to exercise caution and choose reputable accelerators to ensure the security of their transactions.
