Transaction blocks occur approximately every 52 seconds, and it's impossible to predict who will win a block. Therefore, all transactions must be broadcast to the whole network and stored locally until they are confirmed. Additionally, it is normal to have more pending transactions than can fit in a single block, so the mempool also acts as a queue for inclusion into the blockchain. -For more information about the mempool, see our [blog post](https://www.chia.net/2024/01/11/getting-to-know-the-mempool-and-transaction-fees/) on this subject. +For more information about the mempool, see our [blog post](https://www.chia.net/2024/01/12/getting-to-know-the-mempool-and-transaction-fees/) on this subject. :::info How many transactions can fit into a block? Due to the varying size of transactions, and the different definitions of what even counts as a "transaction," there is not an exact number. But just for a bit of rough guidance, approximately 1000 transactions with two inputs and two outputs, or 2000 transactions with one input and one output can fit into a single block.
