That's too much, I minted an NFT three hours ago, it took like 10 minutes. Try another wallet, CCVault seems to be performing better these days.

now i am getting this error: BlockfrostServerError: Mempool is full, please try resubmitting again later.
  but the first was submited so it is not related to blockfrost only but to thw whole blockchain.

<p>The blocks are much more saturated on mainnet. It's normal to wait 5-10 minutes for a transaction to get into the block chain when the blocks are saturated.</p>

Some wallets are better than others with dealing with the backlog.

<p>Hello i am facing some troubles when moving from test-net to main-net, my transactions seems to have to wait a long time for being reflected in the explorer, also i can not do any more transactions until they appear in the explorer, yesterday I had to wait almost 10 minutes. Now I am waiting for more than half an hour! and i can not see my transaction in the explorer neither do any other transaction.</p>
<p>Everything works fine in test-net but on main-net things gets complicated, I have noticed that Nami Wallet and Yoroi work terrific, but sending my transactions from Blockfrost endpoint may be the thing that makes things slow,  Any suggestion?</p>

Just be patient. This behavior is because these days the blockchain has been really saturated, 90-95%.

Additionally, today was the launch of [Sundaeswap](https://sundaeswap.finance/), that means, more saturation.

This also has an impact in the wallets, you can try [CCVault](https://ccvault.io/app/mainnet/welcome)

Your transactions can take 10 minutes or even more when the blockchain is saturated.
