The processing of these transactions is carried out by miners, who have a finite number. As a result, when there are more transactions to process, each individual transaction takes longer to be confirmed.

This is due to the competitive nature of mining, where miners are vying to solve complex mathematical problems to add new blocks to the blockchain.

When the network is congested with a high volume of transactions, it takes longer for miners to find the solution and add the next block to the chain.
