The Fee You Set Is the Speed You Get

There's a persistent misunderstanding in crypto UX where users blame an exchange for a slow transaction that was actually delayed at the network layer, before the exchange ever had a chance to act. Confirmation time is a function of the fee attached to the deposit transaction and current network congestion, not the exchange's processing speed.

CCE Cash's system can only begin converting funds once a deposit clears the required number of confirmations. If that deposit was sent with a low fee during a period of high network demand, it can sit in the mempool for hours regardless of how fast the exchange itself is.

Understanding this distinction matters because it puts the lever for speed back in the user's hands: setting an appropriate fee (usually handled automatically by modern wallets) is the single biggest factor in how quickly a swap actually completes.
