Why is the BTC exchange confirmation taking so long?

For Bitcoin, there may be several reasons for the delay:

• High network load. An increase in the number of users on the Bitcoin network has led to a large number of pending operations. This significantly affects transaction speed.
• The fee influences the transfer speed, as the Bitcoin blockchain is maintained by miners. They decide which transfers are processed first. High-priority transactions have higher fees.
• Don’t worry if your Bitcoin exchange is delayed. There are cases of waiting for a transfer for several hours (and even days!). In any case, with correct details, the funds will be delivered to the recipient or returned to the sender.
