Title: Unconfirmed Tx not found in the mempool !
Post by: CoinLearn on July 01, 2015, 10:44:58 PM
I have sent this payout few hours ago. This payment is still in unconfirmed state. Moreover, I cant find it in http://mempool.info either ! What's wrong ?

Your transaction is most likely in the mempool, whether that site (mempool.info) says so or otherwise (which it doesn't).
Your transaction size (5980 bytes) should have a fee of 0.0005 for priority. You placed a fee of 0.0001. That is too low.
There is currently around 4,300 txs in the mempool.
Since you have low priority, it may take awhile to see a confirmation (hours).

There may be "testing", "spamming" going on in the network, with conjugation of certain miners not filling their blocks on purpose.
Because of this, your transaction has been unconfirmed for hours.

Edit: BTW looks like mempool.info is broken and has txs claiming to be over 1 month old and older.
        This is not possible because the mempool will automatically dump txs that are 48 hours old.
        So that site must be broken.

The tx have confirmations now.
BTW blockchain.info don't show up all the transaction. The reject them for some reason (see https://blockchain.info/rejected) and one of the reasons is the fees are too low. Then, since your tx's fees are low, they rejected your tx when it was at the mempool. However, since it is confirmed in a block, blockchain.info shows it up again.

This Tx was not rejected by blockchain.info. Then, OP dint show the blockchain.info itself. It dint appear on mempool.info, which contains list of unconfirmed Tx. That is what OP was complaining about.

I always only pay the minimum fee to get included. Which often turns out to be zero when it's allowed. And i never had problems. In the rare cases transactions take longer i tested sending another transaction with higher fee and they were not faster.

Maybe some time in the future, when more miners will block zero or low fee transactions, that will be a point. But not now in my experience.
