<p>I'm losing up to 45% on a BTC transaction. When it reaches the merchant they say that I'm losing it in the transfer and that the chain is the cause. How true is this and how can I check with the chain on what's going on?</p>

45% of what? the btc sent? this does not sound correct, watch out for scamming merchants, as soon as u have sent your btc there is no getting it sent back without the merchant sending back to you etc
