Apparently, folks spending their Ethereum holdings experienced some delays in processing transactions on \u201cBlack Friday.\u201d\u00a0 Octoin<\/a> (reviewed here) made this observation in a recent post, but happily noted that, at least for Octoin<\/a> users, the speed of ETH transactions is back to normal now.\u00a0 Here\u2019s the post from Octoin<\/a>\u2026<\/p>\n

“BLACK FRIDAY\u00bb vs. Ethereum. Mission completed!\u00a0<\/u><\/p>\n

Yesterday many crypto informational channels were recommending their subscribers to become \u00abShoppoholics instead of Holders just once a year at Black Friday”. So that they would spend some of their savings in crypto currencies to their pleasure.<\/p>\n

Ethereum users have followed this advice so much that the ETH network have had such a heavy load of transactions yesterday, that it lead to some technical errors and delays in transactions.<\/p>\n

We have also noticed some delays of your transactions as well as quite many questions were written to our SUPPORT team about this.<\/p>\n

Today is Saturday, the \u00abBlack Friday\u00bb is over and we are noticing the stabilization of Ethereum transactions. The speed of ETH transactions confirmations for Octoin <\/a>users is back to normal. Congratulations to all of you!<\/p>\n
