I tend to batch my chores and errands and shopping to one day a week. So I find myself using Monero multiple times in one day. It gets annoying to wait for that 20-minute cool down for my funds to become available again to spend again. How do people handle this? These aren’t large transactions they’re small transactions it’s just annoying.
Something like this bounty would help, but that’s for the future, how are people handling it today? https://bounties.monero.social/posts/81/1-639m-cake-wallet-multiple-small-transactions-in-quick-succession

Just use Monero like it’s designed to be, and the problem go away. By using Monero as a bank account, if you don’t live paychecks to paychecks, you are going to accumulate sufficient amount of output to never have to think about that.
Or you can do like other mentioned, but instead of sending to 10, sent to 16 (including change) or 15 (excluding change). Feather wallet coin control allow you that very easily.
How should I be using Monero? How is it designed to be used?
Seperate your coins. If you get 1 xmr to spend send yourself 10 transactions of 0.1xmr. By the time you have used all 10 outputs some should be unlocked. Cake wallet and monero.com wallet have a template you can use for this.
Thanks! I never thought of using templates like this. I just tried it. So I had to make a template. Create a transaction using the template. Create another transaction using the template. Keep repeating until I’ve stacked enough templates to satisfy my pocket change requirements. It works. So great thank you. I wish cake wallet made this easier or automatic like the gentleman indicated for the other wallet
You can make mulriple transactions at once by tapping “add another receiver”. So yes, make a template with your address and the amount (lets say 0.1 xmr), tap the template, tap " add another reciever, tap the template, repeat
You can also use PocketChange with Monerujo wich does that automatically
Sure can. I just personally like cake wallet UI better. Its also more screen reader accessible.
Just out of curiosity, and feel free to not answer if I’m probing to much. But are you managing to buy groceries and stuff with Monero?
No groceries yet, but I look forward to the option.
I pay some contractors weekly with monero.
I make monthly donations with monero (grapheneos, eff, mull, etc)
I would love for a privacy.com site to use crypto or monero to fund it. But until that happens I use prepaid credit cards VM at manero to pay for some streaming services.
Pay for hosting with monero, more rare but also domain registration.
Use a wallet with coin control, like feather, then just sweep outputs to yourself while breaking them up.
Thanks for the tip! I’ve not heard of coin control before. I’ll definitely experiment with feather now.
It’s the sweep feature?
Yes, you can select “churn” then specify number of outputs. You can break one large output into many smaller ones, then they will be ready to spend back to back after the initial lock.
Then you are sure to have at lest one output ready to spend while others may be locked.
I use pocket change feature of monerujo wallet.
