Title: unconfirmed transaction Post by: Succub on October 29, 2015, 06:38:58 PM Hi there,
i've made this transaction more than 36 hours ago and still nothing. Status: 0/unconfirmed Date: 28/10/2015 02:22 To: 1GHjqGbMZ2Z3cbFmV6k58CGraVN3uEW6b2 Debit: -0.10000000 BTC Transaction fee: -0.00000225 BTC Net amount: -0.10000225 BTC Transaction ID: 966dcc579cfc0316c988c5cf8e8055bba84e2fa8d8048f57cf1e0e955c8ecce7-000 is there something to do to speed it up or should I just wait ? Title: Re: unconfirmed transaction Post by: Echye on October 29, 2015, 06:46:46 PM It is taking so long because of the fee I believe. Transactions that take 10k satoshis (blockchain/xapo AFAIK) will get confirmed in 5-10 minutes.
Title: Re: unconfirmed transaction Post by: Succub on October 29, 2015, 07:03:45 PM I use bitcoin core and when I set the fastest confirmation time It sets the lowest transaction fees... strange...
How much time it can get before being confirmed ? at worse I mean.

How much time it can get before being confirmed ? at worse I mean. Did you give it some time to gather data or did you open core, let it sync and created the TX right away?

I'm just testing right now within 2 blocks 24584 satos full fast 373 satos (It's telling me smart fees not initialized yet. this usually take a few blocks, what does that mean ?) Title: Re: unconfirmed transaction Post by: achow101 on October 29, 2015, 07:17:08 PM I always wait for bqt to be up to date. It means that you need it to gather several blocks (which can take sevreal hours) so that it has enough data to estimate fees properly. This means that you need to leave it on for a few hours before sending a transaction. Just starting it up and then sending a transaction when everything is synced will not work and will result in bad fees.I'm just testing right now within 2 blocks 24584 satos full fast 373 satos (It's telling me smart fees not initialized yet. this usually take a few blocks, what does that mean ?)

That means you did not wait long enough for it to determine how high the fee must be in order to get your TX into the next block. I noticed this myself from time to time. It seems easier (faster) to determine a proper fee for 2+ blocks than for the next block. Title: Re: unconfirmed transaction Post by: Succub on October 29, 2015, 07:23:59 PM erf ok...
So I guess, I have to wait. in the worst scenario, how much time can it take ? Title: Re: unconfirmed transaction Post by: shorena on October 29, 2015, 07:27:10 PM erf ok... So I guess, I have to wait. in the worst scenario, how much time can it take ? Worst case would be 8 days judging by the number of confirmations of your input and thus the priority. I would expect it confirms faster though. Keep core running if you can to make sure its rebroadcasting the TX from time to time. Title: Re: unconfirmed transaction Post by: Succub on October 29, 2015, 07:37:50 PM Ok.
Thank you for your help and your clarification. |
