I understand your point of view. But reading Manfred’s post, I understood that if the deposit is not confirmed one of the traders can open a dispute, inform the moderator and get his deposit back. When we create a transaction and someone accepts, it is because it is good for both sides, and both are happy. But when the blockchain hangs for more than 5 days, and it gets really bad for one side, I’m fine with canceling.

> If you open a dispute or it takes too long for you and prefer to not continue the trade but cancel it, you can open a dispute. Tell the arbitrator the the tx is not confirmed and if one of the traders prefer to cancel the trade the arbitrator will close the case so the seller gets back his BTC and both get back their deposit.
