  RBF, or Replace-By-Fee, is a feature in some digital currency protocols that allows users to replace an unconfirmed transaction with a new one that includes a higher transaction fee. This can help prevent transaction delays by incentivizing miners to prioritize the new transaction and include it in the next block. By offering a higher fee, users can effectively 'bump' their transaction and ensure faster confirmation times. It's important to note that not all digital currencies support RBF, so it's crucial to check if the specific currency you're using has this feature before relying on it to prevent transaction delays.

  RBF is like a VIP pass for your digital currency transactions. It allows you to jump the queue and get your transaction confirmed faster. Let's say you made a transaction with a low fee and it's stuck in the mempool, waiting to be confirmed. With RBF, you can simply create a new transaction with a higher fee and replace the old one. Miners will be more likely to include the new transaction in the next block because they're motivated by the higher fee. So, RBF helps prevent transaction delays by giving you the power to prioritize your transactions and avoid getting stuck in the backlog.
