I used zcash4win to send 0.01ZEC (I know not much but still), from my T address to my Z address and set 0 miner tx fee and 0 dev fee. I don’t know why I set 0 fee but did I just lose my ZEC?

Never mind, I’m getting confirmations, so um if people confirm with 0 fee why do people use the 0.0001 or something fee? ---

Because with no fee it can sometime take days for the transaction to show confirmations… or of course you can have what happened to me happen… have a transaction with 700+ confirmations that still has not shown up in my cryptonator account… ---

Hmm, I’ll make sure I use the standard fee for transferring to exchanges, but when transferring from my T address (to which I mine to) to my Z address, I’ll use 0 fee since it works anyway. I don’t mind the wait as long as it works 🙂 ---

That i would say your fine with but anything else i would at least use the default fee… I had a minuscule amount of ZEC i wanted to send to a different account i didn’t attach a fee since it was so little of an amount and it didn’t end up showing up for days… ---
