Title: 50+ transactions sent without enough fees on, all unconfirmed.. worth 8+btc.. Post by: bitcoinaliens on July 12, 2015, 01:17:05 PM Hi all, would like some help or advice. I run a few popular faucets, and the other day we did our weekely payout run - it was paying maybe 10k people, in batches of 150, a total of 50-70 transactions. You can see them all here - all the outgoing batches all unconfirmed: https://blockchain.info/address/1BwJgbMKb7nz4GZ3uTDTbpovzznTrBbyJE
First, yes, I know I was an idiot for not putting a higher fee on in light of this weeks transaction spam attacks. They are going out / paid via blockchain.info's API... That's all the info I have.. so... - What can I do? Just wait and see if they go through? - How long do I wait before they get rejected? Do they get rejected and then well get the btc back to that wallet? - Is there anything else I can do. - * also very frustrated with blockchain and the total lack of information from them :( Terrible service :( Any help, advice, knowledge drops are greatly appreciated.

I had some bad impression, that you don't understand how fees, blockchain and whole infrastructure works.. Title: Re: 50+ transactions sent without enough fees on, all unconfirmed.. worth 8+btc..

I had some bad impression, that you don't understand how fees, blockchain and whole infrastructure works.. We usually just send with a low 20k fee, we push it out ourselves using API so the fee isn't flexible. Initially we couldnt send at all, we asked our contact in blockchain and he didn't know why we couldnt send or what the error message meant - his advice just to wait... but we have 10k people waiting from money to us and past the date when we send it. So we realised we were paying people with only 5500 satoshi balances. When we incresaed our minimum to 20,000 or more it let us process the payments.. a few clicks later we sent out 8btc to 10k people (as usual) but now 24 hours later theyre all unprocessed. This isn't a mistake ill make again, but now I'm living it with 1000s of angry people after me.. :P , is there anything I can do, or what is the process now? * and yeh, I'm having to write this message here as the chances of hearing back from blockchain.info before Monday afternoon are 0%.

Post by: Xialla on July 12, 2015, 01:44:59 PM ahh, those 10k people should be aware about current blockchain situation or you can at least post something about it to page...is not your fault, that network behaves last days like this. if somebody is unable to understands it and is angry, he should maybe move somewhere else.

Is there anywhere to look to see what the current backlog is, or how much "spam attack" is still going on?

There should be more user tools to fix this... but for know... I got python ;) non-profit transaction rescue service (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1123063.0) Title: Re: 50+ transactions sent without enough fees on, all unconfirmed.. worth 8+btc..
