Replace-by-Fee (RBF)

Replace-by-Fee (RBF) is a Bitcoin transaction feature allowing users to replace an unconfirmed transaction with a new one that includes a higher transaction fee. This mechanism ensures that miners prioritize the transaction with the higher fee, improving the chances of faster confirmation.

RBF is particularly useful during periods of network congestion when low-fee transactions are delayed. While RBF increases transaction efficiency, it has raised concerns about potential misuse, such as enabling double-spending in specific scenarios.
