Title: Spending from an unconfirmed balance Post by: jacee on January 21, 2016, 07:38:49 AM I want to send btc now but the balance is still unconfimed. I'm currently usin mycelium and saw that I can send it even if it's not confimed yet but I didn't sen it yet. Is it okay if I will spend the coins from an unconfimed transaction or should I jut wait for it to be confimed before I can send it?

If you send coins from an unconfirmed transaction, your new transaction cannot be confirmed before the incoming unconfirmed transaction is confirmed (wow, that was a difficult sentense) Title: Re: Spending from an unconfirmed balance Post by: shorena on January 21, 2016, 09:19:02 AM I want to send btc now but the balance is still unconfimed.

If you send coins from an unconfirmed transaction, your new transaction cannot be confirmed before the incoming unconfirmed transaction is confirmed (wow, that was a difficult sentense) I would wait if you received the coins from someone else. I would not wait if the coins are unconfirmed because you recently created a different transaction and the unconfirmed coins are the change of that TX. (more difficult sentenses :C ) Title: Re: Spending from an unconfirmed balance Post by: jacee on January 23, 2016, 12:27:21 AM I choose to wait. The coins were also from me from another address. I was sending them to another address but the confirmation takes longer than usual with a high priority fee set. Anyway I waited. I thought maybe something wrong coul happen so yea. Thanks for the difficult sentences you guys wrote here. :)

which could have caused problems,coins can get stuck that was an easy sentence ;D |
